Talk:Diisopropyl ether

"Only 0.88%"
Article says, "Whereas at 20 °C, diethyl ether will dissolve 1% by weight water, diisopropyl ether only dissolves 0.88%." Is that a meaningful distinction? 1% equals 0.88% to within the stated precision; it is not clear that solubilities can be routinely measured to more than this level of precision; and even if 1.00% was meant (which would need a citation), this is not a large difference. Unless it can be cited that this solubility difference is important in practical applications, it seems that this is not a point we should be emphasizing as the leading way in which the two ethers differ. The numbers given say that the two are basically the same, not that they are importantly different. 2607:FEA8:1280:5D00:0:0:0:879 (talk) 14:07, 1 August 2023 (UTC)
