Original Measurements
Mahieu, J.; Bull. Soc. Chim. Belg. 1936, 45, 667-677.
Variables:
Ambient temperature: 298 K
Prepared by:
Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
Constant temperature bath, thermometer, and a precision balance. Excess solute and solvent placed in closed glass containers and allowed to equilibrate for several hours at constant temperature. Aliquots of saturatured solutions transferred into tared containers and weighed. Solubilities calculated from weight of solid residue which remained after solvent had evaporated.
Source and Purity of Materials:
- Purity and source not given.
- Purity and source not given.
Estimated Errors:
Ambient temperature: T/K: precision ±0.5 (compiler).
Mole fraction - Liquid (1): x1: ±5% (relative rrror; compiler).
Experimental Values:
| T (°C) | x1 | x2 |
|---|---|---|
| 25.0 | 1.50 x 10-3 | 9.9853 x 10-1 |
(a) Computed by compiler from published solvent compositions and solute solubilities, which were expressed as weight percents and grams of solute per 100 grams of solvent.
