t/°Cγ1102 * Mass Fraction w1 (compiler) 104 * Mole Fraction x1
205410 +/- 1600.1351.85
305180 +/- 1950.1411.93
405580 +/- 2900.1301.79
Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
   A differential static cell equilibrium apparatus was used to measure the infinite dilution activity coefficient of trichloroethene in water. Cells containing degassed water were submerged in a thermostat water bath. Trichloroethene was injected into  the mixture cells and a magnetic stirrer was turned on. Then, the cells were allowed to equilibrate. Later, the stirrer was turned off and the differential pressure was recorded. The experiment was repeated at least three times at each temperature
