 Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
   A known amount of water was added to dried tetrachloromethane to make a series of standard samples for preparing calibration curves and obtaining the saturated solutions at each temperature. The determination of the water content of the tetrachloromethane  was made with an RM-250 NMR spectrometer (radiation frequency 250 MHz). The water peak amplitude was the mean of four readings taken at a particular temperature.

 Source and Purity of Materials:
   (1) Distilled.
   (2) Source not given. Grade 2 purity, washed with KOH and H2SO4 solutions and distilled water before dried on molecular sieve.

 Estimated Errors:
   Solubility: ± 28 std. dev.
   Temperature: ± 1 - 2 K.
