Abstract
The homogeneous nucleation rate of n‐nonane has been measured as a function of temperature and supersaturation ratio in a precision fast‐expansion chamber. The measured nucleation rate ranges from 102 to 105 drops/cm3 over the temperature range 215–270 K. The results have been compared to the classical theory and to the classical theory with the RKC replacement factor. The RKC theory functional form is the basis for an empirical rate equation to fit the data. A full listing of the thermodynamic constants used for the reduction of the data is given.
