Glass Ball as Bullet Solubility System: Benzene with Water

Components:
   (1) Water; H2O; [7732-18-5]  NIST Chemistry WebBook for detail
   (2) Benzene; C6H6; [71-43-2]  NIST Chemistry WebBook for detail

Original Measurements:
   Krasnoschchekova, R.Ya.; Gubergrits, M.Ya., Vodnye. Resursy. 1975, 2, 170-3.

Variables:
   Temperature = One temperature: 25 °C

Prepared By:
   A. Maczynski

Experimental Remarks:

   The solubility of benzene in water at 25 °C was reported to be 1.000 mg(1) cm-3 sln.
The corresponding mass percent and mole fraction, x1, calculated by the compiler are 0.1000 g (1)/100 g sln and 2.305 x 10-4. The compiler's calculation assumes a solution density of 1.000 g mL-1.

Experimental Data:   (Notes on the Nomenclature)
   Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
   The solubility of (1) in (2) was determined by glc. A Czech-made Chrom-2 chromatograph was used, equipped with a 5% Apiezon L/Chromosorb G column operated at 90-140 °C.

Source and Purity of Materials:
   (1) described in ref 1.
   (2) distilled.

Estimated Errors:

   Temperature: ± 1 K
