Additional information
The density for 2-chlorotoluene was determined to be 1.0825 mg/cm^3 (20 °C) based on a weight of evidence including three reliable compilations of physico-chemical data:
The density of 2-chlorotoluene is reported in the CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics 94th edition (Lide, 2013). According to the background information on the endpoint provided, the number of decimal places given should be taken as a rough estimate of the accuracy of the value. Considering this, the value can be regarded as reliable.
Furthermore, an identical value is reported by Kirk-Othmer (2001).
