SDS Volume (292)
Volume 37. Hydrocarbons in Water and Seawater, Part I, p 205
Original Measurements
Natarajan, G. S.; Venkatachalam, K. A.; J. Chem. Eng. Data 1972, 17, 328-9.
Variables:
Room Temp: 30 °C
Prepared by:
M.C. Haulait-Pirson, G.T. Hefter
Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
15 mL of the aqueous medium was equilibrated with 1 mL of (1) by mechanical shaking in a thermostatted glass burette. After settling (judged visually), 5 mL of the aqueous layer was withdrawn and the olefin content determined by titration with bromine using standard procedures.
Source and Purity of Materials:
- Prepared by dehydration of cyclohexanol and then washed, dried and fractioned. Purity (no specification) was determined by chromatography.
- not specified.
Estimated Errors:
Ambient temperature: ±0.05 K
Mass concentration (m/v) (1): not specified.
Components:
- Cyclohexene, $\ce{ C6H10 }$; [110-83-8] NIST WebBook
- Water, $\ce{ H2O }$; [7732-18-5] NIST WebBook
Experimental Data
The solubility of cyclohexene in water was reported to be 4.950 × 10-3 mol L-1 at 30°C.a Assuming a solution density of 1.00 g mL-1 the corresponding mass percent and mole fraction (x1) solubilities calculated by the compilers are respectively, 0.0406 g(1)/100 g sln and 8.91 × 10-5.
Solubility data are also presented as a function of temperature in various salt solutions.
