Ethanol with m-Xylene (1,3-dimethylbenzene, 1,3-xylene) and Water (IUPAC SDS Volume 69)

SDS Volume

Volume 69. Ternary Alcohol-Hydrocarbon-Water Systems, p None

Source Publication

Holt, A.; Bell, N. M.; J. Chem. Soc. 105, 633 (1914).

Conditions:

Room Temp: 273 - 373 $\pu{K}$

Compiler:

A. Skrzecz

Methodology:

To a known volume of m-xylene small portions of alcohol were added. After each addition of alcohol, water was added until a distinct milkiness was observed. The mixture was kept at constant temperature and was shaken repeatedly.

Sample Information:

Source not specified; "absolute" ethyl alcohol; used as received.
Source not specified; "nearly pure" m-xylene; used as received.
Distilled.

Measurement Errors:

Ambient temperature: Not reported.
Mass concentration (m/v) (1): Not reported.

System Components:

Ethanol, $\ce{ C2H6O }$; [64-17-5] NIST WebBook
1,3-Dimethylbenzene, $\ce{ C8H10 }$; [108-38-3] NIST WebBook
Water, $\ce{ H2O }$; [7732-18-5] NIST WebBook
