Notes:
   a  The T/K values were calculated the compiler.

Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
   A visual polythermal method was used. The melts were contained in glass tubes and stirred. The temperatures were measured with a Nichrome-Constantan thermouple and a 17 mV full scale millivoltmeter. The temperature readings refer to the disappearance of isotropicity in the melt on cooling.

Source and Purity of Materials:
   Component (1) was prepared by reacting aqueous "chemically pure" sodium carbonate with a slight excess of analytical grade formic acid.
Component (2) was "chemically pure" material.

Estimated Errors:
   Solubility: No information is given.
   Temperature: The compiler estimates the accuracy of the temperature measurements to be probably ± 2 K.
