 Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
   Tritiated water was equilibrated with 20 ml fluorobenzene for two hours in a flask placed in a constant temperature bath. The sample was stirred throughout the equilibration period. The concentration of the tritiated water in the organic phase was determined by isotopic dilution. The tritium activities in the tritiated water were determined by the acetylene method (1,2). At least four independent experiments were done. The article was based upon work reported in a Ph.D. dissertation (2).

 Source and Purity of Materials:
   (1)Tracerlab Inc. tritiated water, used as received.
   (2) Source not specified, chemical grade, redistilled before use.

 Estimated Errors:
   Solubility: ± 2.8%.
   Temperature: ± 0.02 K.
