Summary
The use of gas chromatography to measure adsorption and partition phenomena of nonelectrolytes with aqueous tetralkylammonium bromide solutions is described. Experimental details are presented, and potential sources of error are discussed. Adsorption coefficients for a series of hydrocarbons are found to be larger on the salt solutions than for water itself. Moreover, the expected increase in partition coefficients with the salt solutions relative to bulk water is shown.
