Physical CO solubilities and total O 2 solubilities (as chemically formed O 2 − and O 2 = ions) have been determined for a comparatively wide range of carbonate melt compositions, and some restricted data on nitrogen and CO 2 solubilities have also been obtained. In general, the Uhlig‐Blander equation in its simple form (without a correction term for gas molecule‐melt interaction) does not apply to these melts. Care should be taken in interpreting hydrogen solubilities measured by chemical titration due to the formation of large amounts of chemically bound CO via the shift reaction.
