Original Measurements
Variables:
Room Temp: 0 - 50 °C
Prepared by:
Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
Component (1) was introduced into a thermostatted flask and saturated for 5 hrs. with (2). Next, calcium hydride was added and the evolving hydrogen volume measured and hence the concentration of (2) in (1) was evaluated.
Source and Purity of Materials:
- Not specified.
- not specified.
Estimated Errors:
Ambient temperature: Not specified.
Components:
- iso-Propylbenzene, $\ce{ C9H12 }$; [98-82-8] NIST WebBook
- Water, $\ce{ H2O }$; [7732-18-5] NIST WebBook
