A.K. Bokarev

Method/Apparatus/Procedure:

The equipment and a manometrical procedure for solubility measurements were similar to those of Lundberg et al.¹

Source and Purity of Materials:

1. PMMA (Lucite) used is a product of du Pont de Nemours Co.: ρ = 1.20 g/cm³.
   Gases from Air Reduction Co., had a minimum purity: CO₂ - 99.5%; N₂ - 99.90%; Ar - 99.997%; He - 99.99%.
   Gases (Matheson Co), included as impurities: Ne-14 ppm He, Kr-12 ppm N₂ and 23 ppm Xe.

Estimated Errors:

Mass concentration (m/v) (1): δC/C ≤ 8%.
