Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
An excess of chlorobenzene in 500 g water was shaken for 12 hours in a thermostat bath. Samples were then withdrawn and read against water as a reference using an interferometer made by Zeiss [1]. A detailed description of the complete procedure has been described in a Ph.D. dissertation [2].
Source and Purity of Materials:
- Eastman Kodak Co., was purified by fractional distillation before use.
- Distilled.
Estimated Errors:
Ambient temperature: ±0.02 K.
Mass concentration (m/v) (1): ±1.0%.
