250.508.5 x 10-26.786.26
Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
   The mutual solubility data were determined by a method described by Othmer, et al.1 A 10 cm3 1,1,2-trichloroethane sample was added to water from a buret and agitated until the solution became turbid.  The appearance of the turbidity indicated the formation of a second phase. The solubility was calculated using the known densities and volumes.

Source and Purity of Materials:
   (1) Fluka reagent, further purified by distillation in a heli-packing column.
   (2) Distilled.

Estimated Errors:
   Solubility: Not specified.
   Temperature: ± 0.5 K (compiler).
