Glass Ball as Bullet Solubility System: Tetrachloroethene (tetrachloroethylene) with Water.
Components:
   (1) Water; H2O; [7732-18-5]  NIST Chemistry WebBook for detail
   (2) Tetrachloroethene (tetrachloroethylene); C2Cl4; [127-18-4]  NIST Chemistry WebBook for detail
Original Measurements:
   Coca, J.; Diaz, R.M.; Pazos, C., Fluid Phase Equilibr. 1980, 4, 125-36.

 Variables:
   Temperature = 298 K

 Prepared By:
   A. L. Horvath

 Experimental Data:   (Notes on the Nomenclature)
  
t/°C102 * Mass Fraction w1102 * Mass Fraction w2105 * Mole Fraction x1 (compiler)105 * Mole Fraction x2 (compiler)
252.0 x 10-21.0 x 10-22.179.20
 Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
   Saturation was determined by titration. The measurement was performed in an Erlenmeyer flask by adding tetrachloroethene to water until a permanent turbidity was observed. The flask was immersed in a water bath thermostat while maintaining a  constant agitation through the use of a magnetic stirrer.

 Source and Purity of Materials:
   (1) Fluka laboratory grade reagent, further purified by distillation; middle fraction used.
   (2) Distilled.

 Estimated Errors:
   Solubility: Not specified.
   Temperature: ± 0.05 K.
