Glass Ball as Bullet Solubility System: Cyclohexene with Water
Components:
   (1) Water; H2O; [7732-18-5]  NIST Chemistry WebBook for detail
   (2) Cyclohexene; C6H10; [110-83-8]  NIST Chemistry WebBook for detail
Original Measurements:
   McBain, J.W.; Lissant, K.J., J. Phys. Colloid. Chem. 1951, 55, 655-62.

 Variables:
   Temperature = One temperature: 25 °C

 Prepared By:
   M.C. Haulait-Pirson and G.T. Hefter

 Experimental Remarks:
   The solubility of cyclohexene in water at 25 °C was reported to be 0.013 g(1)/100 mL sln.

The corresponding mass percent and mole fraction (x1), calculated by the compilers assuming solution density to be the same as pure water(1.00 g mL-1), are 0.013 g sln and 2.9 x 10-5.

 Experimental Data:   (Notes on the Nomenclature)
   Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
   10 mL portions of (2) was pipetted into glass vials, following which, varying amounts of (1) were added to each bottle by direct weighing. The vials were shaken overnight. When two vials had been obtained, one clear and one with excess hydrocarbon and containing amounts differing by less than 1 mg, the two values were averaged and the mean taken as the amount solubilized.

 Source and Purity of Materials:
   (1) Eastman No. 1043
   (2) distilled and boiled to remove CO2.

 Estimated Errors:

   Temperature: not specified.
