301.1761.161.21
 Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
   The solubility of dibromomethane in water was determined in specially designed flasks with calibrated capillary cylinders. After the samples reached equilibrium in a thermostatic bath, their volumes and weights were used to determine the solubility values. .

 Source and Purity of Materials:
   (1) Merck reagent, redistilled and washed before use, b. p. = 97.8oC.
   (2) Distilled.

 Estimated Errors:
   Solubility: Not specified.
   Temperature: ± 0.5 K (compiler).
