Notes:
   ⁺  cm³g^–1 at p₁ = 101.325 kPa.

Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
   Glass equilibrium cell fitted with a magnetic stirrer. Pressure measured with a Bourdon gauge. Samples of liquid analyzed by stripping out ethene. Details in Ref. 1.

Source and Purity of Materials:
   1. Prepared from ethanol by dehydration and purified by absorption in cuprous chloride under pressure.
   2. Distilled.

Estimated Errors:
   Solubility: δx_C₂H₄ = ± 2% (estimated by compiler)
   Temperature: δT/K = ± 0.1 (estimated by compiler)
   Pressure: δP/bar = ± 0.3 (estimated by compiler)
