t/°CMole Fraction x1Mole Fraction x2
30.00.12960.8704
 Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
   Constant temperature bath, thermometer, and a precision balance.
Excess solute placed in closed glass container and allowed to equilibrate for several hours at constant temperature. Aliquots of saturated solutions were transferred into tared containers and weighed. Solubilities calculated from weight of solid residue that remained after solvent had evaporated.
