I n Table I1 are values of ( M L / T ) ’ which were calculated on the basis of the Hildebrand principle from Figure 3. The agreement of these calculated values with those experimentally observed is in general good, but not so good as that of the values calculated from the equation of Kistyakowsky. The difference between the results of the two methods becomes marked when they are applied to liquids having high molal volumes such as the higher hydrocarbons. For these substances the latent heats predicted by this application of the Hildebrand principle are considerably higher than those based on the Kistyakowsky equation. Unfortunately reliable experimental data in this range are not available. However, in view of its scientific basis and the fact that it is in good agreement with practically all observed data, it would seem that the equation of Kistyakowsky should offer the more reliable basis. It is therefore suggested that this equation,

as quoted by lllidgley and Henne (3) was derived from the data of series A only. Although this equation satisfactorily represents the data from which it was derived, it does not extrapolate correctly and is obviously inadequate for thermodynamic calculations involving derivatives. Soon after it was published the data of series B were obtained and the combined data represented by an equation in which the logarithm of the pressure was expressed as a function of a series in 1/T. The Jackson Laboratory of E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company pointed out that this equation gave too much curvature in regions above and below those covered by the data from which it was derived, so a third series, C, covering the range from - 70' C. to the critical temperature, was made.

type K potentiometer and the type 242013 galvanometer were used in series C. The instrumental error in temperature measurement is estimated to be of the order OF -0.3" C. for series A, -0.2' C. for series B, and 1 0 . 1 " C. for series C. Nearly all pressures below 5 absolute atmospheres were measured on a mercury manometer, the usual barometric and temperature corrections being observed. Measurements of higher pressures were made with Bourdon tube gages calibrated before and after use against a dead-weight gage, whose constant was determined by direct comparison with the mercury manometer. The average error in the pressure measurements is estimated to be *0.5 per cent, although in a few instances it may he as great as 1.5 per cent. Apparatus The apparatus was essentially the same for all measurements, though certain changes were made to suit the varying requirements imposed by the wide range of pressures. A container, partially filled with the liquid, was connected to the pressure gage by small-bore tubing. For most of the lowtemperature measurements the container was a Pyrex bulb connected to the manometer by a short section of rubber tubing; a Dewar flask containing gasoline cooled by solid carbon dioxide furnished a satisfactory bath. At the higher pressures small welded steel cylinders, fitted with valves, held the liquid, and connection to the pressure gage was made with '/sinch copper tubing; an oil bath of large heat capacity with a manually controlled electric heater was used. The baths were thoroughly stirred and thermal equilibrium was established by violently shaking the containers. Temperatures and pressures could be held constant within the sensitivity of the instruments for 3 or 4 minutes. Data Space does not permit reproduction here of the ninety-eight individual measurements made. The essential information is contained in Table I, in connection with the final equation 3 and deviation plot (Figure 1).

The data were plotted as loglo p against 1/T on a large scale and a smooth curve was drawn through the points. of this graph were plotted against The slopes, d log p / d absolute temperatures and approximately fitted by an equation having the form of (2). This equation was then integrated, the boiling point supplying the constant of integration. As was to be expected, this first approximation to the integral did not fit the vapor-pressure data accurately. The final equation was obtained by successive approximations using the Trouton and Hildebrand (2) relations to indicate the general trend of the slope curve in the regions to which they apply.

The orthobaric densities of dichlorodifluoromethane have been measured up t o the critical temperature, and the critical constants determined. The saturated vapor densities below 50" C. were calculated from the vapor-pressure equation and the equation of state. Above 50" C. they were obtained by determination of dew points. Liquid densities from -40' to 50' C. were determined by a dilatometric method, and above 50" C. by Faraday's method, using glass floats. The critical temperature, pressure, and density are, respectively, 111.5' C., 39.56 atmospheres, 0.555 gram per cubic centimeter.
