 Notes:
   1  Cited value is in error (compiler).

 Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
   A supersaturated solution of tetrachloromethane in water was agitated for two hours at 20oC. After storing for 2 hours the water phase was filtered through Whatman no. 2 filter paper before analysis. The concentration of tetrachloromethane in w ater was determined by gas chromatography or by ultraviolet spectroscopy.

 Source and Purity of Materials:
   (1) Source and purity not given.
   (2) Distilled.

 Estimated Errors:
   Solubility: Not specified.
   Temperature: ± 1.0 K.
