Glass Ball as Bullet Solubility System: 1-Chloropentane with Water

Components:
   (1) Water; H2O; [7732-18-5]  NIST Chemistry WebBook for detail
   (2) 1-Chloropentane; C5H11Cl; [543-59-9]  NIST Chemistry WebBook for detail

Original Measurements:
   Booth, H.S.; Everson, H.E., Ind. Eng. Chem. 1948, 40, 1491-3.

Variables:
   Temperature = 298 K

Prepared By:
   A. L. Horvath

Experimental Data:   (Notes on the Nomenclature)
  
t/°C102 * V1/V2102 * Mass Fraction w1 (compiler) 104 * Mole Fraction x1 (compiler)
259.0 x 10-27.9 x 10-21.3
Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
   The equilibrium was established through repeated shaking and centrifuging of a 1-chloropentane and water mixture in a stoppered Goetz tube and returned the tube to a constant temperature water bath. The  difference between the total amount of 1-chloropentane which was added and the amount which remained in excess was the amount of solute dissolved in the known  volume of water. The determination of the excess amount of solute added is described elsewhere.1

Source and Purity of Materials:
   (1) Commercial reagent, C. P. grade, used as received.
   (2) Distilled

Estimated Errors:
   Solubility: Not specified.
   Temperature: ± 1 K (compiler).
