Original Measurements

Variables:
Room Temp: 7 - 65 °C
Prepared by:
Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
(a) The solubility of (1) in (2) was determined by means of the formaldehyde-sulfuric acid reagent, (1). The value shown for 7 °C is the mean of three determinations, and the value for 25 °C is the mean of two determinations; all other data are single determinations only.
(b) The cloud point exhibited by this system appeared to be very sharp, as the samples passed from a state in which they were cloudy within 1 °C. The cloud point data averages of from two to eight separate determinations. Cloud points at 0.025 g(1)/100 g solution were very faint.
Source and Purity of Materials:
- Source not specified; fresh samples; used as received.
- not specified.
Estimated Errors:
Ambient temperature: (b) ±0.5°C (from two to eight determinations)
