Methodology:

Binodal compositions were determined by titration with the corresponding, less-soluble component until the appearance of turbidity [1]. The analytical method was used for determination of tie-lines. This was based on refractive indexes and densities of the samples, [1] combined with the oxidation of the alcohol with an excess of potassium dichromate and determination of unreduced dichromate with $\ce{NaS2O2}$. Alcohol in the organic layer was determined after extraction with water.

Sample Information:

1. Kemika (Zagreb); analytical grade; presumably used as received; $n$ = 1.3828, $\rho^{25} = \pu{779.6 kg m-3}$, BP = 96.8°C.
2. Zorka (Sabac); purity not specified; presumably used as received; $n$ = 1.4232, $\rho^{25} = \pu{773.6 kg m-3}$, BP = 80.1°C.
3. Twice distilled in the presence of $\ce{KMnO4}$.

Measurement Errors:

Ambient temperature: Composition <0.0005 mass fraction, binodal (relative); composition ±2%, tie line.
Mass concentration (m/v) (1): Not reported.
