Prepared by:
Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
The titration method was used. No experimental details were reported.
Source and Purity of Materials:
- Commercial Solvents Corp.; purity 93.9 mass% with 2.3 mass% of 2-nitropropane.
- distilled.
Estimated Errors:
Ambient temperature: ±1 K.
Experimental Values:
Note: The proportion of nitroethane in the water-rich phase at equilibrium at 298 K was reported to be 100 w1 = 5.05. The corresponding mole fraction solubility, x1, calculated by the compiler, is 0.0126.The proportion of nitroethane in the nitroethane-rich phase at equilibrium at 298 K was reported to be 100 w1 = 99.14. The corresponding mole fraction solubility, x1, calculated by the compiler, is 0.9651.
