This somewhat roundabout approach to the problem is necessary because direct measurement of equilibrium in the chlorine-water-hydrate system at the temperatures and pressures of interest would be exceptionally difficult. Ketelaar [22] therefore made an ingenious series of individually plausible assumptions from which he estimated the vapor pressure of hydrate and its solubility in liquid chlorine. The numbered items below describe the individual steps in the reasoning process, and Fig. 9.31 shows the relative energy levels of the different states of the important species.
