Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
   Either pure CO2 gas or CO2-N2 mixtures were used in the experiments to maintain a constant P(CO2). The CO2-N2 mixtures were made by pumping predetermined amounts of CO2 and N2 into a gas tank and their composition was verified by gas chromatography.
CO2 or CO2-N2 gas mixtures were equilibrated with the aqueous solutions in a series of stirred water-jacketed reaction vessels with condensers. The gas was premoistured by first passing it through distilled water at the temperature of experiment. Fine bubbles were obtained by using gas-dispersion tubes. The bubbling rate was 90- 95 mL min-1.
The mole fraction of CO2 in the CO2-N2 mixture was determined using a Hewlett Packard (5790A) gas chromatograph.

Source and Purity of Materials:
   (1) Commercial; purity 99.9 %
   (2) Source not mentioned. Analytical reagent-grade which met ACS specifications. CaCl2 x 2H2O was weighed and dissolved in water. The concentration of CaCl2 in solutions was determined by analyzing Cl- concentration via AgNO3 titration in stock solutions.
   (3) 18 MΩ water obtained from a Milli-Q Super-Q water system.

Estimated Errors:
