Variables:

Room Temp: 290 - 341 $\pu{K}$

Prepared by:

V.P. Sazonov

Method/Apparatus/Procedure:

The synthetic method was used. A sample of (1) was poured into a 10 mL ampoule which was then cooled and a given amount of hydrocarbon added to it. The sealed ampoules were placed into a glass-walled thermostat. The temperature of the thermostat was increased gradually with periodic stirring and a preliminary determination of the clear-point temperature in every ampoule was made. A more precise value of the cloud-point temperature was determined by allowing the thermostat to cool. The determination was repeated several times.

Source and Purity of Materials:

1. Distilled through a column of 20 theoretical plates as in [1]; BP = 101.5°C at 101.33 kPa, $n_{D}^{20}$ = 1.3820, $\rho^{20} = \pu{1138.0 g L-1}$.
2. Distilled through a column of 90 theoretical plates; BP = 27.88°C at 101.33 kPa, $n_{D}^{20}$ = 1.3538.

Estimated Errors:

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