   Klevens, H.B., J. Phys. Chem. 1950, 54, 283-98.

Variables:
   Temperature = 25 °C

Prepared By:
   M.C. Haulait-Pirson

Experimental Remarks:

   The solubility of propylbenzene in water at 25°C was reported to be 0.12 g(1) L–1 sln and 0.001 mol(1) L–1 sln.

Experimental Data:   (Notes on the Nomenclature)
   Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
   The solubility of (1) in (2) was determined by shaking small amounts of (1) in 1 liter of (2) for as long as three months. Aliquots were removed and concentrations determined by spectra.
