Nitromethane with Heptane
Components:
(1) Nitromethane,
$\ce{ CH3NO2 }$;
[75-52-5]
NIST WebBook
(2) Heptane,
$\ce{ C7H16 }$;
[142-82-5]
NIST WebBook
Experimental Values:
The solubility of nitromethane in the (2)-rich phase at equilibrium at 30°C (303 K, compiler) was reported to be 100 w1 = 3.5. The corresponding mole fraction, x1, calculated by the compiler is 0.056.
The solubility of nitromethane in the (1)-rich phase at equilibrium at 30°C (303 K, compiler) was reported to be 100 w1 = 97.3. The corresponding mole fraction solubility, x1, calculated by the compiler is 0.983.
