Vapor pressure of liquid

Here is a similar formula from the 67th edition of the CRC handbook. Note that the form of this formula as given is a fit to the Clausius–Clapeyron equation, which is a good theoretical starting point for calculating saturation vapor pressures: :log10(P) = −(0.05223)''a''/''T'' + ''b'', where ''P'' is in mmHg, ''T'' is in kelvins, ''a'' = 38324, and ''b'' = 8.8017.


Properties of aqueous methanol solutions

Data obtained from ''Lange's Handbook of Chemistry'', 10th ed. and ''CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics'' 44th ed. The annotation, ''d a''°C/''b''°C, indicates density of solution at temperature ''a'' divided by density of pure water at temperature ''b'' known as specific gravity. When temperature ''b'' is 4 °C, density of water is 0.999972 g/mL.
