Table 3.01. Proportions of water (H2O) and halite (NaCl) in the mixtures shown in Figure 3.03. The masses of water and halite used for the mixtures were chosen to make the total mixture have a mass of 6 grams and be able to fit into the sample bottles. Mixtures with the same proportions (weight percentages) of H2O and NaCl may be easily made in the laboratory using 50g (=50ml) of water and 5g, 10g, 15g, 20g, 25g, 30g, 35g, and 40g of NaCl, respectively.
