Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
About 200-500 mL (2) was placed in a ground-joint glass cylinder and 20-50 mg of an insoluble indicator (dithizon, phenolphthalein, etc.) was added, and (1) was microburetted until the indicator floated to form a colored thin layer on the cylinder wall above the liquid layer. Blanks were made to determine the excess of (1).
Source and Purity of Materials:
- Not specified.
- not specified.
Estimated Errors:
Mass concentration (m/v) (1): 0.01 g(1) L-1 sln (std. Dev. From 6 determinations).
Experimental Values:
Note: The solubility of ethylbenzene in water at 25°C was reported to be 0.18 g(1) L-1 sln.The corresponding mass percent and mole fraction, x1, calculated by the compilers are 0.018 g(1)/100 g sln and 3.1 × 10-5. The assumption that 1.00 L-1 = 1.00 kg sln was used in the calculation.
