Thermodynamic and transport properties of (1-Butanol + 1,4-Butanediol) at temperatures from (298.15 to 318.15) K

Densities and kinematic viscosities have been measured for (1-butanol + 1,4-butanediol) over the temperature range from (298.15 to 318.15) K. The speeds of sound within the temperature range from (293.15 to 318.15) K have been measured as well. Using these results and literature values of isobaric heat capacities, the molar volumes, isentropic and isothermal compressibility coefficients, molar isentropic and isothermal compressibilities, isochoric heat capacities as well as internal pressures were calculated. Also the corresponding excess and deviation values (excess molar volumes, excess isentropic and isothermal compressibility coefficients, excess molar isentropic and isothermal compressibilities, different defined deviation speed of sound and dynamic viscosity deviations) were calculated. The excess values are negative over the whole concentration and temperature range. The excess and deviation values are expressed by Redlich–Kister polynomials and discussed in terms of the variations of the structure of the system caused by the participation of the two different alcohol molecules in the dynamic intermolecular association process through hydrogen bonding at various temperatures. The predictive abilities of Grunberg–Nissan and McAllister equations for viscosities of mixtures have also been examined.     

Effect of KCl on the volumetric and transport properties of aqueous tri-potassium citrate solutions at different temperatures

Density, speed of sound and viscosity measurements of binary aqueous solutions of tri-potassium citrate were performed from dilute up to near saturated concentration range at T = (293.15, 298.15, 303.15, 308.15, and 313.15) K. Volumetric and transport properties of ternary aqueous solutions of (tri-potassium citrate + KCl) have also been measured within the molality range of KCl (0.05, 0.15, 0.25, 0.35, 0.45, and 0.55) at different temperatures. Apparent molar volume and apparent molar isentropic compressibility have been calculated from the density and speed of sound for binary and ternary aqueous solutions of tri-potassium citrate. Apparent molar volume and apparent molar isentropic compressibility of ternary aqueous solutions of (tri-potassium citrate + KCl) have been correlated with the Redlich–Mayer equation. Viscosity values of ternary aqueous solutions of (tri-potassium citrate + KCl) have been fitted with the Jones–Dole equation. The results obtained have been interpreted in elucidating the effect of tri-potassium citrate on the interaction of KCl–H₂O. Density and viscosity values of ternary aqueous solutions of (tri-potassium citrate + KCl) have been predicted successfully using the methods proposed by Laliberte (2007), Laliberte and Cooper (2004) [9], [10] and Zafarani-Moattar and Majdan-Cegincara (2009) [11].     

Speeds of sound,densities, isentropic compressibilities of the system (methanol + polyethylene glycol dimethyl ether 250) at temperatures from 293.15 to 333.15 K

In this work, our objective is to contribute to the knowledge of the mixtures (alcohol + polyalkyl ether glycol) used in absorption refrigeration systems and heat pumps. The determination of different thermophysical properties is essential to understand the interactions among different molecules in liquid mixtures. Therefore, experimental data of speed of sound and density together with calculated values of isentropic compressibility for the refrigerant-absorbent system (methanol + polyethylene glycol dimethyl ether 250) (or Pegdme 250) have been gathered here over the whole range of composition at temperatures from T=293.15 to 333.15 K and atmospheric pressure. The two previous experimental properties were measured with a digital vibrating tube analyser Anton Paar DSA-48. Also, the excess molar volumes and the increments of the speed of sound and the isentropic compressibility have been determined for each composition and they were fitted to a variable-degree polynomial equation.     

Effect of tri-potassium phosphate on volumetric,acoustic, and transport behaviour of aqueous solutions of 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide at T = (298.15 to 318.15) K

Density, sound velocity, and viscosity of 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide, [Emim][Br], in aqueous solutions of tri-potassium phosphate with salt weight fractions (w_s = 0.00, 0.10, 0.15, and 0.20) have been measured as a function of concentration of [Emim][Br] at atmospheric pressure and T = (298.15, 303.15, 308.15, 313.15, and 318.15) K. The apparent molar volume, isentropic compressibility, apparent isentropic compressibility, and relative viscosity values have been evaluated from the experimental data. The partial molar volume and isentropic compressibility at infinite dilution, and viscosity B-coefficient obtained from these data have been used to calculate the corresponding transfer parameters for the studied IL from water to the aqueous tri-potassium phosphate solutions. Also, an empirical equation was satisfactorily used to correlate the experimental viscosity data.     

Ultrasonic studies on binary mixtures of some aromatic ketones with acetonitrile at T = 308.15 K

The speed of sound and density of acetophenone, propiophenone, para-methyl acetophenone, and para-chloro acetophenone with acetonitrile have been measured over the entire range of mole fraction at T = 308.15 K. From the experimentally determined data, values of deviations in speed of sound, isentropic compressibility, and intermolecular free-length have been computed. The deviation in isentropic compressibility Δκ_S is fitted to a Redlich–Kister type equation. The deviation in speed of sound is positive where as the deviations in isentropic compressibility and intermolecular free length are negative for all the systems. This trend indicates that the specific interactions are operative between unlike molecules. The reactivity order of ketones with acetonitrile is para-chloro acetophenone > para-methyl acetophenone > acetophenone > propiophenone.     

Effect of alkyl chain length and temperature on the thermodynamic properties of ionic liquids 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide in aqueous and non-aqueous solutions at different temperatures

The alkyl chain length of 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide ([Rmim][Br], R = propyl (C₃), hexyl (C₆), heptyl (C₇), and octyl (C₈)) was varied to prepare a series of room-temperature ionic liquids (RTILs), and experimental measurements of density and speed of sound at different temperatures ranging from (288.15 to 308.15) K for their aqueous and methanolic solutions in the dilute concentration region (0.01 to 0.30) mol · kg^?1 were taken. The values of the compressibilities, expansivity and apparent molar properties for [C_nmim][Br] in aqueous and methanolic solutions were determined at the investigated temperatures. The obtained apparent molar volumes and apparent molar isentropic compressibilities were fitted to the Redlich–Mayer and the Pitzer’s equations from which the corresponding infinite dilution molar properties were obtained. The values of the infinite dilution molar properties were used to obtain some information about solute–solvent and solute–solute interactions. The thermodynamic properties of investigated ionic liquids in aqueous solutions have been compared with those in methanolic solutions. Also, the comparison between thermodynamic properties of investigated solutions and those of electrolyte solutions, polymer solutions, cationic surfactant solutions and tetraalkylammonium salt solutions have been made.     

Thermodynamic and transport properties of (1,2-ethanediol + 1-nonanol) at temperatures from (298.15 to 313.15) K

Densities and kinematic viscosities have been measured for (1,2-ethanediol + 1-nonanol) over the temperature range from (298.15 to 313.15) K. The speeds of sound in those mixtures within the temperature range from (293.15 to 313.15) K have been measured as well. Using the measurement results, the molar volumes, isentropic compressibility coefficients, molar isentropic compressibilities, and the corresponding excess and deviation values (excess molar volumes, excess isentropic compressibility coefficients, excess molar isentropic compressibilities, differently defined deviations of the speed of sound, and dynamic viscosity deviations) were calculated. The excess Gibbs free energies estimated by the use of the UNIQUAC model are also reported. The excess molar volumes and Gibbs free energies are positive, whereas the compressibility excesses are s-shaped. The excess and deviation values are expressed by Redlich–Kister polynomials and discussed in terms of variations of the structure of the system caused by the participation of two different alcohol molecules in the dynamic intermolecular association process through hydrogen bonding. The effect of temperature is discussed. The predictive abilities of the McAllister equation for viscosities of the mixtures under test have also been examined.     

Second critical micelle concentration of dodecyldimethylbenzylammonium chloride in aqueous solution at 25 °C

Two breaks have been found on the conductivity, refractive index, density and sound velocity against molality plots for aqueous solutions of dodecyldimethylbenzylammonium chloride at 25 °C, in the absence of any additive. The first break corresponds to the critical micelle concentration, cmc. The second, less distinct break, occurring in the molality range of 0.082 to 0.104 mol kg^-1, in dependence on the technique applied, has been ascribed to the second critical micelle concentration, 2nd cmc, responsible for structural transitions of spherical micelles. Values of cmc and 2nd cmc have been also estimated conductometrically for tetradecyltrimethylammonium bromide and dodecylpyridinium chloride. On the basis of available conductometric data it has been shown that the 2nd cmc/cmc ratio varies in the range of 2 to 10 in dependence on the type of 1:1 ionic surfactant. It has been also shown that for a given class of surfactants, the logarithm of 2nd cmc varies linearly with the number of carbon atoms in the alkyl chain ( n= 12, 14 and 16). Both empirical regression coefficients depend upon the class of surfactants considered.     

Volumetric and isentropic compressibility behaviour of aqueous solutions of (polyvinylpyrrolidone + sodium citrate) at T = (283.15 to 308.15) K

The apparent specific volumes and isentropic compressibilities have been determined for polyvinylpyrrolidone in aqueous solutions of sodium citrate by density and sound velocity measurements at T = (283.15 to 308.15) K at atmospheric pressure. The results show a positive transfer volume of PVP from an aqueous solution to an aqueous sodium citrate solution. For low concentrations of PVP, the apparent specific volumes of PVP in water increased along with an increase in the polymer mass fraction, while in aqueous sodium citrate solutions decreased along with an increase in the polymer mass fraction. For high concentrations of PVP, the apparent specific volumes of PVP in water and in aqueous sodium citrate solutions were independent of the polymer mass fraction. The apparent specific isentropic compressibility of PVP is negative at T = (283.15 and 288.15) K, which imply that the water molecules around the PVP molecules are less compressible than the water molecules in the bulk solutions. The positive values of apparent specific isentropic compressibility at T = (298.15, 303.15, and 308.15) K imply that the water molecules around the PVP molecules are more compressible than the water molecules in the bulk solutions. Finally, it was found that the apparent specific isentropic compressibility of PVP increases as the concentration of sodium citrate increases.     

Density,speed of sound,refractive index and dielectric permittivity of (diethyl carbonate + n -decane) at several temperatures

Density, speed of sound and refractive index values of (diethyl carbonate  + n -decane), were measured at the temperatures (288.15, 293.15, 298.15, and 308.15) K and atmospheric pressure. In addition, dielectric permittivities have been measured for the same mixture and at the same temperatures except at T =  293.15 K. Excess molar volumes, changes of isentropic compressibility on mixing, changes of refractive index on mixing and changes of dielectric permittivity on mixing were computed from the experimental data. The excess molar volumes were compared with predictions from the Nitta–Chao model.

The densities of tetraphenylphosphonium bromide, sodium tetraphenylborate, lithium perchlorate, sodium perchlorate and lithium bromide in γ-butyrolactone at (288.15, 293.15, 298.15, 303.15, 308.15 and 313.15) K and speed of sound at 298.15 K have been measured. From these data apparent molar volumes V_Φ at (288.15, 293.15, 298.15, 303.15, 308.15 and 313.15) K and the apparent molar isentropic compressibility K_S,Φ, at T = 298.15 K of the salts have been determined. The apparent molar volumes and the apparent molar isentropic compressibilities were fitted to the Redlich, Rosenfeld and Mayer equation as well as to the Pitzer and Masson equations yielding infinite dilution data. The obtained limiting values have been used to estimate the ionic data of the standard partial molar volume and the standard partial isentropic compressibility in γ-butyrolactone solutions.     

Densities,viscosities, speed of sound,and IR spectroscopic studies of binary mixtures of tert-butyl acetate with benzene,methylbenzene, and ethylbenzene at T = (298.15 and 308.15) K

Densities, viscosities, speed of sound, and IR spectroscopy of binary mixtures of tert-butyl acetate (TBA) with benzene, methylbenzene, and ethylbenzene have been measured over the entire range of composition, at (298.15 and 308.15) K and at atmospheric pressure. From the experimental values of density, viscosity, speed of sound, and IR spectroscopy; excess molar volumes V^E, deviations in viscosity Δη, deviations in isentropic compressibility Δκ_s and stretching frequency ν have been calculated. The excess molar volumes and deviations in isentropic compressibility are positive for the binaries studied over the whole composition, while deviations in viscosities are negative for the binary mixtures. The excess molar volumes, deviations in viscosity, and deviations in isentropic compressibility have been fitted to the Redlich–Kister polynomial equation. The Jouyban–Acree model is used to correlate the experimental values of density, viscosity, and speed of sound.     

Viscosity,density, and speed of sound of methylcyclopentane with primary and secondary alcohols at T = (293.15, 298.15, and 303.15) K

Viscosities, densities, and speed of sound have been measured over the whole composition range for (methylcyclopentane with ethanol, 1-propanol, 1-butanol, 2-propanol, 2-butanol, and 2-pentanol) at T = (293.15, 298.15, and 303.15) K and atmospheric pressure along with the properties of the pure components. Excess molar volumes, isentropic compressibility, deviations in isentropic compressibility, and viscosity deviations for the binary systems at the above-mentioned temperatures were calculated and fitted to Redlich–Kister equation to determine the fitting parameters and the root-mean square deviations. UNIQUAC equation was used to correlate the experimental data. Dynamic viscosities of the binary mixtures have been predicted using UNIFAC-VISCO and ASOG-VISCO methods.

Densities and speeds of sound at atmospheric pressure and temperatures of (283.15, 298.15, and 313.15) K for the binary mixtures formed by n-hexane or n-heptane with isomeric chlorobutanes were determined. Afterwards excess volumes, excess isentropic compressibilities and excess speeds of sound were calculated using the experimental data and correlated using a Redlich–Kister type equation. Finally, the results were studied using the Prigogine–Flory–Patterson theory showing excellent predictions for speed of sound and isentropic compressibility values of mixtures as well as a strong influence of the interactional contribution term for excess volume values.

In this work, the physical properties, dynamic viscosities, densities, and speed of sound have been measured over the whole composition range and atmospheric pressure for the binary mixtures (methylcyclopentane with acetone, butanone, and 2-pentanone) at several temperatures T = (293.15, 298.15, and 303.15) K along with the properties of the pure components. Excess molar volumes, isentropic compressibility, deviations in isentropic compressibility and viscosity deviation for the binary systems at the above-mentioned temperatures were calculated and fitted to the Redlich–Kister equation to determine the fitting parameters and the root-mean-square deviations. The UNIQUAC equation was used to correlate the experimental viscosity data. The UNIFAC-VISCO method and ASOG-VISCO method, based on contribution groups, were used to predict the dynamic viscosities of the binary mixtures. The interaction parameters of cycloalkanes with ketones (CH_cy/CO) have been determined for their application in the predictive UNIFAC-VISCO method.     

Thermophysical properties of binary mixtures of {ionic liquid 2-hydroxy ethylammonium acetate + (water,methanol, or ethanol)}

In this work, density and speed of sound data of binary mixtures of an ionic liquid consisting of {2-hydroxy ethylammonium acetate (2-HEAA) + (water, methanol, or ethanol)} have been measured throughout the entire concentration range, from the temperature of (288.15 to 323.15) K at atmospheric pressure. The excess molar volumes, variations of the isentropic compressibility, the apparent molar volume, isentropic apparent molar compressibility, and thermal expansion coefficient were calculated from the experimental data. The excess molar volumes were negative throughout the whole composition range. Compressibility data in combination with low angle X-ray scattering and NMR measurements proved that the presence of micelles formed due to ion pair interaction above a critical concentration of the ionic liquid in the mixtures. The Peng–Robinson equation of state coupled with the Wong–Sandler mixing rule and COSMO–SAC model was used to predict densities and the calculated deviations were lower than 3%, for binary mixtures in all composition range.     

Excess molar volumes and isentropic compressibility of binary systems {trioctylmethylammonium bis(trifluoromethysulfonyl)imide + methanol or ethanol or 1-propanol} at different temperatures

This paper reports measurements of densities for the binary systems of an ionic liquid and an alkanol at T = (298.15, 303.15, and 313.15) K. The IL is trioctylmethylammonium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide [OMA]⁺[Tf₂N]^? and the alkanols are methanol, or ethanol, or 1-propanol. The speed of sound at T = 298.15 K for the same binary systems was also measured. The excess molar volumes and the isentropic compressibilities for the above systems were then calculated from the experimental densities and the speed of sound, respectively. Redlich–Kister smoothing polynomial equation was used to fit the excess molar volume and the deviation in isentropic compressibility data. The partial molar volumes were determined from the Redlich–Kister coefficients. For all the systems studied, the excess molar volumes have both negative and positive values, while the deviations in isentropic compressibility are negative over the entire composition range.     

Density,speed of sound,and refractive index measurements for the binary systems (butanoic acid + propanoic acid,or 2-methyl-propanoic acid) at T = (293.15 to 313.15) K

Density, speed of sound, and refractive index for the binary systems (butanoic acid + propanoic acid, or 2-methyl-propanoic acid) were measured over the whole composition range and at T = (293.15, 298.15, 303.15, 308.15, and 313.15) K. The excess molar volumes, isentropic compressibilities, excess isentropic compressibilities, molar refractions, and deviation in refractive indices were also calculated by using the experimental densities, speed of sound, and refractive indices data, respectively. The Redlich–Kister smoothing polynomial equation was used to fit the excess molar volume, excess isentropic compressibility and deviation in refractive index data. The thermodynamic properties have been discussed in terms of intermolecular interactions between the components of the mixtures.     

(Vapour + liquid) equilibria,volumetric and compressibility behaviour of binary and ternary aqueous solutions of 1-hexyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride,methyl potassium malonate,and ethyl potassium malonate

(Vapour + liquid) equilibrium data (water activity, vapour pressure, osmotic coefficient, and activity coefficient) of binary aqueous solutions of 1-hexyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ([C₆mim][Cl]), methyl potassium malonate, and ethyl potassium malonate and ternary {[C₆mim][Cl] + methyl potassium malonate} and {[C₆mim][Cl] + ethyl potassium malonate} aqueous solutions were obtained through the isopiestic method at T = 298.15 K. These results reveal that the ionic liquid behaves as surfactant-like and aggregates in aqueous solutions at molality about 0.4 mol · kg⁻¹. The constant water activity lines of all the ternary systems investigated show small negative deviations from the linear isopiestic relation (Zdanovskii–Stokes–Robinson rule) derived using the semi-ideal hydration model. The density and speed of sound measurements were carried out on solutions of methyl potassium malonate and ethyl potassium malonate in water and of [C₆mim][Cl] in aqueous solutions of 0.25 mol · kg⁻¹ methyl potassium malonate and ethyl potassium malonate at T = (288.15 to 308.15) K at atmospheric pressure. From the experimental density and speed of sound data, the values of the apparent molar volume, apparent molar isentropic compressibility and excess molar volume were evaluated and from which the infinite dilution apparent molar volume and infinite dilution apparent molar isentropic compressibility were calculated at each temperature. Although, there are no clear differences between the values of the apparent molar volume of [C₆mim][Cl] in pure water and in methyl potassium malonate or ethyl potassium malonate aqueous solutions, however, the results show a positive transfer isentropic compressibility of [C₆mim][Cl] from pure water to the methyl potassium malonate or ethyl potassium malonate aqueous solutions. The results have been interpreted in terms of the solute–water and solute–solute interactions.     

Thermodynamic properties of solutions of sodium di-hydrogen phosphate in (1-propanol + water) mixed-solvent media over the temperature range of (283.15 to 303.15) K

The apparent molar volume and apparent molar isentropic compressibility of solutions of sodium di-hydrogen phosphate (NaH₂PO₄) in (1-propanol + water) mixed-solvent media with alcohol mass fractions of 0.00, 0.05, 0.10, and 0.15 are reported over the range of temperature (283.15 to 303.15) K at 5 K intervals. The results were fitted to a Redlich–Mayer type equation from which the apparent molar volume and apparent molar isentropic compressibility of the solutions at the infinite dilution were also calculated at the working temperature. The results show a positive transfer volume of NaH₂PO₄ from an aqueous solution to an aqueous 1-propanol solution. The apparent molar isentropic compressibility of NaH₂PO₄ in aqueous 1-propanol solutions is negative and it increases with increasing the concentration of NaH₂PO₄, 1-propanol, and temperature. Electrical conductivity and refractive index of the solutions are also studied at T = 298.15 K. The effects of the electrolyte concentration and relative permittivity of the medium on the molar conductivity were also investigated.
