Volume 71. Nitromethane with Water or Organic Solvents, p None
Original Measurements
Malesinska, B.; Bull. Acad. Pol. Sci.; Ser. Sci. Chim. 8, 53 (1960).
Variables:
Room Temp: 367 - 376 $\pu{K}$

Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
The synthetic (Alekseev [1]) method was used. Sealed samples, about 1.0 - 1.5 g, of various compositions were heated to a temperature higher than that required for complete homogeneity, then cooled at about 0.01 K/min until turbidity and a meniscus appeared. Repeat determinations were made.
Source and Purity of Materials:
- Source not specified; purity not specified; dried and twice distilled.
- Isolated from a Fischer-Tropsch gasoline fraction freed from unsaturated hydrocarbons; fractionally distilled.
Estimated Errors:
Ambient temperature: Not specified.
Mass concentration (m/v) (1): Not specified.
Pressure: Not specified.
