Experimental results are reported for the solubility of carbon dioxide in liquid mixtures of water and the ionic liquid 1-n-butyl-3-methylimidazolium methylsulfate ([bmim][CH3SO4]). Three (gas-free) solvent compositions were considered with mass fractions of [bmim][CH3SO4] of w' approximate to 0.15, 0.50, and 0.87 (mole fractions x' approximate to 0.013, 0.066, and 0.33). In the isothermal experimental series, the temperature was about (293, 333, and 373) K. The total pressure ranged up to about 10 MPa. The molality of carbon dioxide in the solvent mixture of (water + [bmim][CH3SO4]) (the mole fraction of carbon dioxide in the liquid) ranged up to approximately 1.64 mol . kg(-1) (about 0.0332). The experimental results are used to determine Henry's constant of carbon dioxide in the liquid mixtures of (water + [bmim][CH3SO4]) as well as the partial molar volume of that gas at infinite dilution in those solvent mixtures. The phase equilibrium is described by applying an extension (to solvent mixtures) of Pitzer's molality scale-based equation for the Gibbs excess energy.
