Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
Carbon-14 labeled (1) was used as tracer. The technique of preparing a saturated aqueous solution of (1) by ultrafiltration of a (1)-(2) dispersion has been described in [1]. A Packard Tri-Carb Liquid Scintillation Spectrometer was used to detect the radioactive (1) dissolved in (2).
Source and Purity of Materials:
- New England Nuclear Corporation; used as received.
- Distilled.
Estimated Errors:
Mass concentration (m/v) (1): 20% (standard deviation from 17 replicate runs).

Experimental Data
The solubility of hexatriacontane-18,19-C14 in water at 25°C was reported to be 1.7 × 10-9 g(1)/g(2).
The corresponding mass percent and mole fraction, x1, calculated by the compiler are 1.7 × 10-7 g(1)/100 g sln and 6.1 × 10-11.
