Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
The saturation of tetrachloromethane with water took place at room temperature under vigorous stirring. The concentration of water in the organic-rich phase was determined by infrared spectrometry.
Source and Purity of Materials:
(1) Distilled.
(2) Commercial reagent, washed and dried before use.
Estimated Errors:
Solubility: ± 4 %.
Temperature: ± 0.5 K (compiler).
