Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
   The points on the binodal curve were determined by the formation of a cloudy mixture on shaking after the addition of a known mass of one component to a mixture of known masses of the other two components. Precision weighing syringes were used as described in Ref. 1. The tie line compositions were determined by the refractive index method reported in Ref. 2 and complementary method using the Karl Fishcer titrations as reported in Ref. 3.

Source and Purity of Materials:
   (1) Merck, AR grade; distilled, dried by refluxing with Mg and I2; purity better than 99.6 mole % by glc; d=0.79979, n=1.3837.
   (2) BDH; used as received; purity better than 99.6 mole % glc.
   (3) Source not specified.

Estimated Errors:
   Solubility: Not reported.
   Temperature: Estimated comp. 0.005 mole fraction on the binodal curve and 0.01 mole fraction for tie lines (estimated by the authors).
