   c  Calculated by compiler.

Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
   An excess of chlorobenzene in 500 g water was shaken for 12 hours in a thermostat bath. Samples were then withdrawn and read against water as a reference using an interferometer made by Zeiss (1). A detailed description of the complete procedure has been described in a Ph.D. dissertation (2).

Source and Purity of Materials:
   (1) Eastman Kodak Co., was purified by fractional distillation before use.
   (2) Distilled.

Estimated Errors:
   Solubility: ±1.0%.
   Temperature: ±0.02 K.
