AI Thread Summary
"Air equilibrated water" refers to water that has been allowed to stand open to the atmosphere until it reaches a state of equilibrium with the surrounding air. This means that the water's physical and chemical properties, such as temperature and salinity, stabilize in relation to the air. A referenced study details a complex system developed by researchers to produce air equilibrated water under controlled conditions, highlighting the scientific interest in this concept. The discussion indicates a lack of readily available information on the topic, prompting users to seek clarification and share findings.

I was reviewing an ISO standard and a reference was made to "air equilibrated water."

Anyone know what it is? I'm guessing it's water left standing open that comes into equilibrium with the air around it, but I don't really know.

I believe you guessed correctly. My curiosity piqued, I inquired of google. In this reference, researchers construct an elaborate system to produce it to order at various temperatures and salinities. http://faculty.washington.edu/emerson/links/Papers/HammeEmerson_DSR04.pdf
 
Wow. Elaborate system it was!

Thanks as I came up with nothing with my internet search.
 

Thread 'Solubility of MgSO47H2O in water'

It seems like a simple enough question: what is the solubility of epsom salt in water at 20°C? A graph or table showing how it varies with temperature would be a bonus. But upon searching the internet I have been unable to determine this with confidence. Wikipedia gives the value of 113g/100ml. But other sources disagree and I can't find a definitive source for the information. I even asked chatgpt but it couldn't be sure either. I thought, naively, that this would be easy to look up without...
