207.0 x 10-21.0 x 10-28.208.53
 Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
   Turbidimetric titrations were used for both the aqueous and the organic phases. Tetrachloromethane or water was weighted into a stoppered flask with an accuracy of 0.01 g. The temperature was maintained constant in an ultrathermostat. First, the organic solvent was titrated  with water from a microburet until the appearance of turbidity. Then, the water was titrated with the organic solvent until the appearance of turbidity.

 Source and Purity of Materials:
   (1) Source and purity not given.
   (2) Distilled (compiler).

 Estimated Errors:
   Solubility: ± 10 %.
   Temperature: ± 0.1 K.
