Yeah my error; got Miller High Life on my mind. Either use a condenser
to trap the vapors or weigh your reaction vessel before and after if
possible.



Thanks guys. I aim to measure this using a small sample in a beaker and
find how much disappears. I was hoping there would be a means of
directly calculating it based on the SVP of methanol.

I'm guessing that the amount of headspace in the top of the vessel is
important.
