Abstract

Solubilities of carbon dioxide in aqueous ethanol solutions, determined at 15, 20, 25, 30 and 35°C at atmospheric pressure, show a minimum at each temperature. Thermodynamics functions for the solution process were calculated and compared with the predictions of the Pierotti gas solubility theory. The abnormal behavior of these solutions is demonstrated.
