McAuliffe, C.; J. Phys. Chem. 1966, 70, 1267-1275.
Conditions:
Room Temp: 25 °C
Compilers:
Z. Maczynska, A. Maczynski, A. Szafranski
Methodology:
In a 250 mL glass bottle, 10-20 mL of (1) was vigorously shaken for 1 hr or magnetically stirred for one day, with 200 mL of (2) at 25 °C. Absence of emulsion was checked microscopically. A sample of the hydrocarbon-saturated water was withdrawn with a Hamilton Syringe and gas liquid chromatograph in conjunction with a flame ionization detector.
Sample Information:
- Phillips Petroleum or Columbia Chemical; used as received.
- Distilled.
Measurement Errors:
Ambient temperature: ±1.5 K
Mass concentration (m/v) (1): 17 g(1)/106 g(2) deviation of mean)
System Components:
- Toluene, $\ce{ C7H8 }$; [108-88-3] NIST WebBook
- Water, $\ce{ H2O }$; [7732-18-5] NIST WebBook
Experimental Data
The solubility of toluene in water at 25°C was reported to be 515 g(1)/106 g(2).
The corresponding mass percent and mole fraction, x1, calculated by the compilers are 0.515 g(1)/100 g sln and 1.01 × 10-4.
