   c  Calculated by compiler.

Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
   The water was saturated with fluorobenzenein a glass-stoppered Erlenmeyer flask rotated in a constant temperature bath for 20 hours. The saturated solution was extracted with n-hexane. The optical density of the extract was measured against a standard n-hexane blank with a Beckman spectrophotometer (1).

Source and Purity of Materials:
   (1) Eastman Kodak Co., commercial reagent, b.p 84.4°C, fractionated before use.
   (2) Not specified.

Estimated Errors:
   Solubility: ± 10% (compiler).
   Temperature: ± 0.1 K (compiler).
