Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
The titration method was used. Solubility was determined by adding a weighed quantity of benzene from a burette to a definite weight of alcohol-water mixture (about 12 g of 50% by weight of the aqueous alcohol) in a stoppered tube and raising the temperature until turbidity disappeared.
