201.6290.2393.501.12
 Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
   The changes resulting from the addition of dichloromethane to water were determined by the measurement of both the density and refractive index of the saturated solutions. A conventional refractometer and a dilatometer were used for the measurements.

 Source and Purity of Materials:
   (1) Kahlbaum, dried over P2O5 and redistilled before use.
   (2) Distilled.

 Estimated Errors:
   Solubility: ± 12 %.
   Temperature: ± 0.5 K (compiler).
