Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
Measurements were carried out in a 100 mL stainless-steel cell. The cell was loaded with 15 g (2) and brought to temperature. Mixing was started anf (1) wa injected until either a cloud or a small droplet of a second phase appeared at the top of the cell. Then mercury was injected to change pressure, more (1) was injected and the measurement was repeated.
Source and Purity of Materials:
(1) Phillips reagent grade; better than 99.8%; used as received.
(2) distilled and dearated.
Estimated Errors:
Temperature: ± 0.02 K
Pressure: ± 2 atm.
