Type

Table entries are sorted according to reliability of the data, listing the most reliable type first: L) literature review, M) measured, V) VP/AS = vapor pressure/aqueous solubility, R) recalculation, T) thermodynamical calculation, X) original paper not available, C) citation, Q) QSPR, E) estimate, ?) unknown, W) wrong. See Section 3.1 of Sander (2023) for further details.

Notes

11) Measured at high temperature and extrapolated to T = 298.15 K.
21) Several references are given in the list of Henry's law constants but not assigned to specific species.
73) Value at T = 296 K.
81) Value at T = 288 K.
186) Experimental value, extracted from HENRYWIN.
238) Value given here as quoted by Gharagheizi et al. (2010).
239) Calculated using linear free energy relationships (LFERs).
240) Calculated using SPARC Performs Automated Reasoning in Chemistry (SPARC).
241) Calculated using COSMOtherm.
247) Calculated using a combination of a group contribution method and neural networks.
300) Value from the test set for true external validation.
328) Sieg et al. (2009) also provide data for supercooled water. Here, only data above 0 °C were used to calculate the temperature dependence.
340) Values for salt solutions are also available from this reference.
521) Hwang et al. (2010) present regression parameters in their Table 6 and values extrapolated to 298.15 K in their Table 5. However, I was not able to reproduce their calculation. The data shown here are from my own regression of the measured data between 318.15 K and 333.15 K.
526) The data from Haimi et al. (2006) were fitted to the three-parameter equation: Hscp= exp( −780.30940 +40758.59752/T +112.07468 ln(T)) mol m−3 Pa−1, with T in K.
