Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
The mutual solubilities of the components were determined with the help of Ziess interferometer. No experimental details were reported.
Source and Purity of Materials:
- Source not specified; pure grade; twice distilled at first over $\ce{P2O5}$, then over anhydrous potassium carbonate, BP = 80°C.
- AR; containing traces of benzene as an impurity; purified as in Lakhanpal et al [1].
Estimated Errors:
Ambient temperature: Not reported.
Mass concentration (m/v) (1): Not reported.
