Abstract

Abstract The solubility of oxygen in pure and in saline water between 2°and 40°has been determined by using a modification of the Winkler titration technique. The values found have, in some cases, been lower than those generally accepted by as much as 4%. On applying these new solubilities to the determination of rates of solution in well mixed water, satisfactory agreement with the Adeney & Becker law of aeration is obtained.
