26.640200.Scott D.W., 1974Recommended values were obtained from the consistent correlation scheme for alkanes [ Scott D.W., 1974, 2, Scott D.W., 1974]. This approach gives a good agreement with experimental data available for alkanes. Results of statistical thermodynamics calculation for 2,2,3-trimethylbutane [ Scott D.W., 1953] also agree well with experimental data at low temperatures. However, the values of S and Cp at 1500 K are 15 and 33 J/mol*K below than those given by [ Scott D.W., 1974].; GT

Henry's Law constant (water solution)

kH(T) = H exp(d(ln(kH))/d(1/T) ((1/T) - 1/(298.15 K)))
H = Henry's law constant for solubility in water at 298.15 K (mol/(kg*bar))
d(ln(kH))/d(1/T) = Temperature dependence constant (K)

H (mol/(kg*bar)) d(ln(kH))/d(1/T) (K) Method Reference Comment
0.00041 QN/A missing citation give several references for the Henry's law constants but don't assign them to specific species.
