The Henry's law constants (air-water partition coefficients) of hydrophobic organic compounds of environmental concern are reviewed. An Qutline of the thermodynamic principles which govern the relationships between vapor pressure, solubility and Henry's law constant for solid and liquid compounds is presented and experimental techniques for obtaining these quantities with the required accuracy are discussed. Vapor pressure, solubility, and Henry's law constant data are tabulated and reviewed for a total of ISO compounds in 12 tables consisting of gaseous~ liquid and solid alkanes, cycloalkanes, alkenes, alkynes, monoaromacs, polynuclear aromatics, halogenated alkanes, alkenes and aromatics, and selected pesticides.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
