Abstract

The Gibbs free‐energy difference between β‐ and α‐quinol has been determined from the solubility of quinol in n‐propanol and the vapour pressure of the solutions. It was found that μQ^β^ — μQ^α^ = 0.084 ± 0.003 kcal/mole, in very good agreement with the value predicted by the statistical theory from the equilibrium composition of the argon clathrate at 25°.

The dissociation pressure of xenon‐quinol clathrate at 25° is 0.058 atm.
