Components:
   (1) Perchloric acid; HClO4; [7601-90-3]  NIST Chemistry WebBook for detail
   (2) Carbon dioxide; CO2; [124-38-9]  NIST Chemistry WebBook for detail
   (3) Water; H2O; [7732-18-5]  NIST Chemistry WebBook for detail

Original Measurements:
   Markham, A.A.; Kobe, K.A., J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1941, 63, 1165-6.

Variables:
   Temperature = 298.15 K
   Pressure = 101.325 kPa
   Concentration = 102x2 = 0 - 29.15

Prepared By:
   D.M. Mason

Experimental Remarks:

   The authors fitted their data up to 6 molal with the equation:
Sm/So = 0.107 m2 + 1/(1 + 0.04282 m2)
Maximum error of the equation was about 1 %.

   b  S = Kuenen coefficient [cm3 (STP) g-1 (H2O) atm-1].

Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
   The principle of the Ostwald method was used in which the gas is agitated with a measured quantity of gas-free liquid and the decrease in volume of solution-saturated gas is measured in a burette over mercury. The pressure was adjusted to yield one atmosphere partial pressure of carbon dioxide. The volume of gas was reduced to 0°C by the ideal gas law. Experiments were conducted to show that the agitation did not cause supersaturation.

Source and Purity of Materials:
   (1) Commercial cylinder, 99.8 % pure.
   (2) Baker, cp analyzed (ACS).
   (3) Distilled.

Estimated Errors:
   Solubility: δα/α,δS/S = ± 0.002 (authors)
   Temperature: δT/K = ± 0.03 (authors)
