Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
The dynamic method was used for the determination of the solubility. It consisted of the saturation of nitrogen with trichloromethane vapor which was then bubbled through a thermostatically controlled flask filled with a definite volume of water. After 2-3 hours the solution became saturated and samples were taken periodically (ref. 1). The concentration of trichloromethane in water was determined by GLC. On average, 3-5 measurements were taken at each temperature.
