Experimental solubilities are reported at 25.0 °C for trans-stilbene dissolved in 28 different organic nonelectrolyte solvents containing methyl, ether, hydroxy, and tert-butyl functional groups. Results of these measurements are used to test the applications and limitations of expressions derived from Mobile Order theory. For the 20 solvents for which predictions could be made, computations show that Mobile Order theory does provide fairly reasonable (although by no means perfect) estimates of the saturation mole fraction solubilities. Average absolute deviation between predicted and observed values is ca. 24%. In comparison, the average absolute deviation increases significantly to 935% when ideal solution behavior is assumed. KeyWords: trans-stilbene solubilities, organic nonelectrolyte solvents, solubility predictions.
