SDS Volume (321)
Volume 37. Hydrocarbons in Water and Seawater, Part I, p 24
Original Measurements
Variables:
Room Temp: 20 °C
Prepared by:
Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
Component (1) was introduced into a thermostatted flask and saturated for 5 hrs. with (2). Next, calcium hydride was added and the evolving hydrogen volume measured and hence the concentration of (2) in (1) was evaluated.
Source and Purity of Materials:
- Not specified.
- not specified.
Estimated Errors:
Ambient temperature: Not specified.
Components:
- 2-Methyl-2-butene, $\ce{ C5H10 }$; [513-35-9] NIST WebBook
- Water, $\ce{ H2O }$; [7732-18-5] NIST WebBook
Experimental Data
