Original Measurements
Francis, A. W.; J. Phys. Chem. 60, 20-7 (1956).
Variables:
Room Temp: 296 - 308 $\pu{K}$
Prepared by:
Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
Observations were made after vigorous shaking in glass-stoppered graduated tubes of 15 mL capacity, immersed in water baths in large Dewar flasks. The water was agitated with a rapid stream of air bubbles. The temperature was adjusted by adding cooler or warmer water occasionally.
Source and Purity of Materials:
- Source not specified; purity not specified.
- Source not specified; purified by crystallization.
Estimated Errors:
Ambient temperature: Not reported.
Mass concentration (m/v) (1): Not reported.
Components:
- Acetonitrile, $\ce{ C2H3N }$; [75-05-8] NIST WebBook
- Alcohols (C10 and C12), $\ce{ C10H22O and C12H26O }$;
