Solubility in binary solvent mixtures: Anthracene dissolved in alcohol plus carbon tetrachloride mixtures at 298.2 K
Experimental solubilities are reported for anthracene dissolved in six binary alcohol + carbon tetrachloride solvent mixtures at 25 degreesC. The alcohol cosolvents studied were I-propanol, 2-propanol, 1-butanol, 2-butanol, 2-methyl-1-propanol, and 3-methyl-1-butanol. Results of these measurements are used to test a mathematical representation based upon the combined nearly ideal binary solvent (NIBS)/Redlich-Kister equation. For the six systems studied, the combined NIBS/Redlich-Kister equation was found to mathematically describe the experimental data to within an overall average absolute deviation of approximately 0.4%.
