Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
The solubility of dibromomethane in water was determined in specially designed flasks with calibrated capillary cylinders. After the samples reached equilibrium in a thermostatic bath, their volumes and weights were used to determine the solubility values..
Source and Purity of Materials:
- Merck reagent, redistilled and washed before use, BP = 97.8°C.
- distilled.
Estimated Errors:
Ambient temperature: ±0.5 K (compiler).
Mass concentration (m/v) (1): Not specified.
Components:
- Dibromomethane, $\ce{ CH2Br2 }$; [74-95-3] NIST WebBook
- Water, $\ce{ H2O }$; [7732-18-5] NIST WebBook
