Glass Ball as Bullet Solubility System: Tetrachloromethane (carbon tetrachloride) with Water
Components:
   (1) Water; H2O; [7732-18-5]  NIST Chemistry WebBook for detail
   (2) Tetrachloromethane (carbon tetrachloride); CCl4; [56-23-5]  NIST Chemistry WebBook for detail
Original Measurements:
   Clifford, C.W., Ind. Eng. Chem. 1921, 13, 628-32.

 Variables:
   Temperature = 297 K - 302 K

 Prepared By:
   A. L. Horvath

 Experimental Data:   (Notes on the Nomenclature)
  
t/°C102 * Mass Fraction w1104 * Mole Fraction x1 (compiler)102 * w1/M1 (compiler) [mol g**-1]
241.0 x 10-28.535.55 x 10-4
28.51.3 x 10-211.097.22 x 10-4
 Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
   The calcium chloride method was used for the determination of water in the samples. The moisture was abstracted from the samples by air and absorbed in two calcium chloride tubes. The two tubes were weighted before and after desorption. For further details, see (ref. 1).

 Source and Purity of Materials:
   (1) Distilled (compiler).
   (2) Technical grade, used after distilling over CaCl2.

 Estimated Errors:
   Solubility: about 1 mg.
   Temperature: ± 0.5 K (compiler).
