 Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
   A mixture of 1 to 15 volume ratio of solute to solvent was placed in an equilibration flask and then lowered into a thermostat water bath. The assembly was shaken mechanically for about 90 min. at constant temperature. The amount of water in the organic phase was determined by a modified Karl Fisher titration. The determination was done in triplicate. The description of the procedure was taken from a secondary source (1). The original report is no longer available.

 Source and Purity of Materials:
   (1) Distilled.
   (2) Source is not known, purified and dried before use.

 Estimated Errors:
   Solubility: ± 1%.
   Temperature: ± 0.05 K.
