Room Temp: 25 °C

Methodology:
The apparatus used is described in detail in [1]. The method involves the introduction of solute vapor (1) into liquid (2) by bubbling air through liquid (1) using a recirculating pump in a closed system. After solubility equilibrium was attained an aliquot of the saturated aqueous solution was withdrawn and analyzed by solvent extraction - UV spectrophotometry.
Sample Information:
- Analytical reagent grade source and purity not stated, used without further purification.
- Deionized and redistilled; no further details given.
Measurement Errors:
Ambient temperature: Not specified.

System Components:
- Ethylbenzene, $\ce{ C8H10 }$; [100-41-4] NIST WebBook
- Water, $\ce{ H2O }$; [7732-18-5] NIST WebBook
Experimental Data
The solubility of ethylbenzene in water at 25°C was reported to be 1.62 × 10-3 mol(1)/dm3 mol(1)/dm3 sln. Assuming a solution density of 1.00 kg/dm3 this corresponds to a solubility of 0.0172 g(1)/100 g sln, x1 = 2.92 × 10-5, calculated by the compiler.
