for detail
(2) Water; H2O; [7732-18-5]

Original Measurements:
Korenman, I.M.; Aref'eva, R.P., Patent USSR, 553 524, 1977.04.05 C.A. 87:87654.
Variables:
Temperature = One temperature: 20 °C
Prepared By:
A. Maczynski
Experimental Remarks:
The solubility of cyclohexane in water at 20 °C was reported to be 0.10 g (1)mL(2).
The corresponding mass percent and mole fraction,
x

, calculated by the compiler are 0.010 g(1)/100 g sln and 2.1 x 10
-5
.
The compiler's calculations assume a solution density of 1.00 g mL

Experimental Data:
(Notes on the Nomenclature)
Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
About 100-500 mL (2) was placed in a glass cylinder and 10-50 mg of an insoluble indicator was added and (1) was microburetted until the indicator floated to form a colored thin layer on the cylinder wall 2-3 cm above the liquid layer. After each drop of (1), the mixture was vigorously mixed for 0.5-1.5 min.
