(Notes on the Nomenclature)
Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
The synthetic method was used. Initial mixtures were prepared by weighing. Measurements were carried out in tubes with glass stoppers. These tubes were fixed with a rubber ring onto a thermometer and were placed into a water or glycerol bath.
Source and Purity of Materials:
(1) Source not specified; pure grade reagent; fractionally distilled.
(2) Distilled.
Estimated Errors:
Solubility: Composition: about 1%.
Temperature: ± 0.1 K.
