Determination of the refractive index of liquid carbon monoxide
Abstract:
The refractive index of liquid carbon monoxide at 78.3 +/- 0.5 K was measured by means of a relatively simple interferometric technique. The values obtained were n = 1.2122 for lambda = 632.8 nm and n = 1.2213 for lambda = 514.5 nm with 0.2% uncertainty.

Temperature is a key factor in CO2 solubility. In this case, the CO2 gas and the liquid are cooled to 20°C. Lower temperatures enhance...
Physical Properties Affecting Solubility
As for any solution, the solubility of a gas in a liquid is affected by the attractive intermolecular forces between solute and solvent species. Unlike solid and liquid solutes, however, there is no solute-solute intermolecular attraction to overcome when a gaseous solute dissolves in a liquid solvent since the atoms or molecules comprising a gas are far separated and experience negligible interactions. Consequently, solute-solvent interactions are the sole...
