Solubility of krypton in liquid CO2

Description

The solubility of krypton in liquid CO2 was measured experimentally over essentially the entire liquid range of CO2, from -53 to 290C. A tracer technique using 85Kr was employed, and equilibrated gas-liquid samples were analyzed in situ with a collimated counter. Dilute concentrations of krypton were used, and the data are expressed as a distribution ratio, Y/sub Kr//X/sub Kr/, the log of which is nearly linear with respect to temperature from the lowest temperature to about 200C, above which the values fall off rapidly toward a value of unity at the critical temperature. The numerical values obtained for the distribution ratio increase from 1.44 at 290C to 29.4 at -530C
