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

1) A detailed temperature dependence with more than one parameter is available in the original publication. Here, only the temperature dependence at 298.15 K according to the van 't Hoff equation is presented.
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.
186) Experimental value, extracted from HENRYWIN.
238) Value given here as quoted by Gharagheizi et al. (2010).
247) Calculated using a combination of a group contribution method and neural networks.
300) Value from the test set for true external validation.
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.
525) The data from Haimi et al. (2006) were fitted to the three-parameter equation: Hscp= exp( 224.10069 −4205.03828/T −37.65761 ln(T)) mol m−3 Pa−1, with T in K.
