the invariance of the classical keto-enol and acid dissociation constants over the entire neutralization range. Thus, within the 2.7 and 2.0% differences noted above for acetylacetone and benzoylacetone, a satisfactory correlation has been demonstrated between the enol plus enolate ion fraction determined by the Kurt Meyer procedure and that calculated from the acid enol properties. Taking the latter as a basis, it may be concluded that the Kurt Meyer bromine addition procedure described above for partially neutralized solutions furnishes results that are reliable to within the 2.7 and 2.0% deviations observed. Summary 1. At 25', the fraction of acetylacetone prese n t b the enol form in dilute aqueous solution (3.3 X lo-* M ) is 0.170. The corresponding

value for benzoylacetone in 1.7 X M aqueous solution containing 7.5% ethyl alcohol by weight is 0.341. The classical acid dissociation constants of the enol forms of the above compounds at and 5.89 * 25.0 * 0.1' are 6.88 * 0.15 X 0.11 X respectively. 2. The fraction of the above compounds present in the enol plus enolate ion form a t 25' has been measured as a function of the fraction neutralized in dilute aqueous solution by the Kurt Meyer bromine addition reaction. An equation expressing this relationship has been derived that is based on the dissociation constant and the keto-enol equilibrium. Values predicted by this equation are larger than the measured values for acetylacetone and benzoylacetoneby 2.7 and 2.00J0, respectively. FLUSHING, NEWYORK

The Heat Capacity, Heat of Fusion and Entropy of 11-n-Decylheneicosane BY F. B. FISCHL,~ B. F. NAY LOR,^ C. W. ZIEMER,' G. S. PARKS~ AND J. G. ASTON' This is the beginning of a series of investigations a t The Pennsylvania State College, dealing with hydrocarbons of high molecular weight. A similar series of investigations has been in progress a t Stanford University since 1937. The object of both series is the establishment of a relationship between structure and various thermodynamic functions. Thus it should be possible to estimate the entropy of a high-molecular weight hydrocarbon from previous systematic calorimetric data on other compounds. This paper furnishes a comparison of data on the same compound obtained independently in the laboratories of Stanford University and The Pennsylvania State College. Preparation and Purification of Sample.-The sample was one of the first compounds prepared by API Project 42. It was synthesized by treating decylmagnesium bromide with ethyl carbonate. The alcohol, after careful fractionation, was dehydrated to the olefin which was catalytically hydrogenated. The saturated hydrocarbon was fractionated through a 10-platelow pressure fractionation column (0.1 mm.) and passed several times through silica gel. The Heat Capacity Measurements.-In the measurements a t The Pennsylvania State College the sample was accurately weighed into calorimeter D, which was designed for the measurement of thermal data of solids and liquids. After freeing the sample from the last traces of air by repeated freezings and evacuations to lo-' mm. of mercury, the calorimeter space above the (1) At The Pennsylvania State College.

compound was filled with approximately one-half atmosphere of helium. The detailed description of this adiabatic solids calorimeter will be published shortly along with a discussion of the accuracy.' It is estimated that all thermal data obtained with it, above 40°K., have an accuracy of 0.2oJo. It is possible to reproduce the heat capacity data on the solid with a precision of better than 0.1% above 80'K. The measurements a t Stanford University were carried out as described previously.' In view of the accuracy of the various factors involved, the absolute error in the experimental values of the heat capacities and heat of fusion is probably less than 0.7%, except insofar as impurities in the sample of this hydrocarbon may cause premelting or otherwise influence the results. The fortuitous errors were ordinarily under 0.25%. The defined calorie, taken equal to 4.1833 international joules, has been used throughout the studies in both laboratories. Temperature measurements have been on the basis: 0°C. = 273.16' K. The value 436.822 has been adopted as the molecular weight of 11-n-decylheneicosane. The sample of this material used in the calorimeter at The Pennsylvania State College was 0.15216 mole: that used a t Stanford was 0.06905 mole. The heat capacities measured at The Pennsylvania State College on the solid compound, uncorrected for premelting, are listed in Table IA. Here the temperature rise can be estimated from the intervals between points of a series. The results of the heat capacity measurements ob(8) Aston and Ziemer, to be published.
