Abstract
Abstract Consistent values of the air/water partition coefficient for n -pentane, n -hexane, n -heptane, n -octane and n -nonane have been measured in the temperature range 15–35°C. All of the results may be summarised by an equation derived on the basis of thermodynamic principles. The constants of this equation have been determined by least-squares regression. The solubilities of hydrocarbons in water as well as thermodynamic quantities relating to the solvation process can be predicted using the equation.
