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:
   Johnson, J.R.; Christian, S.D., Affsprung, H.E., J. Chem. Soc. A. 1966, 77-8.

 Variables:
   Temperature = 298 K

 Prepared By:
   A. L. Horvath

 Experimental Data:   (Notes on the Nomenclature)
  
t/°CConcentration c1 [mol m**-3]102 * Mass Fraction w1 (compiler) 104 * Mole Fraction x1 (compiler)
258.79.89 x 10-38.44
 Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
   Samples of water and tetrachloromethane mixtures were equilibrated in a constant temperature waterbath. The solute isopiestic apparatus has been described elsewhere (ref. 1). The water solubilities were determined using a Beckman Model KF-3 Aquameter.

 Source and Purity of Materials:
   (1) Distilled (compiler).
   (2) Source not given, reagent grade, distilled in an Oldershaw column before use.

 Estimated Errors:
   Solubility: ± 0.3 x 10-3.
   Temperature: ± 0.1oC.
