Conditions:
Room Temp: 25 °C

Methodology:
A mixture of 500 mL (2) and 0.001 mol (1) was equilibrated in an Erlenmeyer flask for 12 h (agitation) + 24 h (stationary). The saturated solution, 100 mL, was extracted with hexane, concentrated by evaporation under nitrogen and anlyzed by glc. A 5700 A Hewlett-Packard instrument equipped with dual compensating columns and flame ionization detectors was employed.
Sample Information:
- source not specified; analytical grade; used as received; no impurities by glc.
- doubly distilled; free of trace organics.
Measurement Errors:
Ambient temperature: ±0.5°C
Mass concentration (m/v) (1): ±0.06 mg(1)/kg(2) (from eight determinations)
System Components:
- Acenaphthene, $\ce{ C12H10 }$; [83-32-9] NIST WebBook
- Water, $\ce{ H2O }$; [7732-18-5] NIST WebBook
Experimental Data
The solubility of acenaphthene in water at 25°C was reported to be 3.47 mg(1)/kg(2) and 2.2 ×10-5 mol(1) dm-3(2).
The corresponding mass percent and mole fraction, x1, calculated by the compiler are 3.47 × 10-4 g(1)/100 g sln and 4.05 × 10-7.
