Glass Ball as Bullet Solubility System: 1,1,1-Trichloroethane with Water.
Components:
   (1) 1,1,1-Trichloroethane; C2H3Cl3; [71-55-6]  NIST Chemistry WebBook for detail
   (2) Water; H2O; [7732-18-5]  NIST Chemistry WebBook for detail
Original Measurements:
   Hunter-Smith, R.J.; Balls, P.W.; Liss, P.S., Tellus 35B, 170 (1983).

 Variables:
   Temperature = 278 K - 306 K

 Prepared By:
   A. L. Horvath

 Experimental Remarks:
   The Henry's law constant (H, dimensionless) was derived from a van't Hoff plot best-fit equation: loge H=9.15-2915/(T/K).

 Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
   The multiple equilibration technique was used to measure the Henry's law constant as described elsewhere.1 A known volume of water in a syringe was shaken with a known volume of pure 1,1,1-trichloroethane.  After equilibration the headspace was separated and analyzed for the compound of interest. A gas chromatograph fitted with an electron capture detector was used for the analysis.
