Summary. Experimental solubility data for metals and non-metallic substances in liquid alkali metals have been collected from literature, critically evaluated, and selected for recommendation. Sometimes results for a selected system at a selected temperature vary over more than an order of magnitude. This is not uniquely connected with a poor precision of the measurements. Some impurities may spectacularly modify the solubilities and, moreover, definition of a saturating solute phase is not always a simple task. Based on supplementary experiments one may explain several phenomena which often accompany dissolution processes. These accompanying processes are essentially the same as those frequently observed in solution chemistry.
