Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
The equilibration between 1,2-dibromoethane and water was established in a constant temperature room maintained at 20 °C for 24 hours. At the end of the time period, two samples were withdrawn from each unit and 1,2-dibromoethane was determined by the catalytic thermal decomposition procedure. The decomposition products were absorbed in a solution of NaOH containing H
