Evaluator:
A. L. Horvath, Imperial Chemical Industries Limited, Runcorn, U.K., July 1993.
Critical Evaluation:
The solubility of 1-chloropropane (1) in water (2) has been studied by five work groups; whereas, the solubility of water (2) in 1-chloropropane (1) has not been investigated yet. The temperature dependence of the solubility of 1-chloropropane (1) in water (2) between 273 and 303 K was reported in only one paper.
1
The data are in very poor agreement and further studies will be necessary before any values can be recommended. In the opinion of the evaluator, there is not enough evidence to justify rejection of any of the five available data sets. The three sets of data by Fühner,
2
by Wright and Schaffer,
3
and by Sato and Nakijima
4
are classed as doubtful; whereas, the data of Rex
1
and of van Arkel and Vles
5
are considered reliable and preferred for use. The solubility data of Rex
1
are believed to be more reliable than the other data because Rex made measurements at more than one temperature. Furthermore, the listed solubility data between 273 and 303 K show a solubility minimum at ambient temperature which is consistent with trends observed for halogenated hydrocarbon - water systems; see the Preface for more details.
All the reported data for the solubility of 1-chloropropane (1) in water (2) for the temperature range from 273 to 310 K in weight percent and mole fraction are summarized in Table 17.
