Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
   The saturation of heavy water with tetrachloromethane was done in a closed system, protected from atmospheric moisture, and placed in a constant temperature water bath. The solubility of heavy water in tetrachloromethane was measured using the Karl Fischer titration method  with a "dead stop" end-point determination (ref. 1). 15 Trials were done at each temperature.

Source and Purity of Materials:
   (1) Source not given, 99.8% pure, used as received.
   (2) Source not given. Reagent grade, purified by distillation before use.

Estimated Errors:
   Solubility: See above.
   Temperature: ± 0.1 K (compiler).
