This natural color image shows Titan's upper atmosphere: an active place where methane molecules are being broken apart by solar ultraviolet light . The products combine to form compounds like ethane and acetylene.

SummarySummary The solubility of benzene in liquid ethane has been
measured using UV spectroscopy:
C-H =6 vibrational overtone spectra of solutions of benzene have been obtained
benzene in carbon tetrachloride at room temperature in concentrations as low as 100 ppm.
benzene dissolved in hexane at room temperature. This spectrum has evidenced the viability of using a saturated hydrocarbon as a solvent.

SummarySummary
The weak =6 C-H vibrational overtone spectra of benzene dissolved in liquid ethane at 120K and 100K, and very low concentrations (~50 ppm) have been obtained.
We have shown that it is possible to study overtone spectra of molecules in solution at the solubility level (ppm) of cryogenic liquids.
