Solubility of 1-Pentene Ice in Liquid Nitrogen and Argon at the Standard Boiling Points of the Solvents

The solubilities of 1-pentene ice in liquid nitrogen at a temperature of 77.4 K and in liquid argon at 87.3 K have been measured by the filtration method. The 1-pentene content in solution was determined using gas chromatography. The experimental value of the mole fraction solubility of 1-pentene ice in liquid nitrogen at 77.4 K is: (1.28±0.25)×10^–7 and (4.11±0.44)×10^–7 in liquid argon at 87.3 K. The Preston–Prausnitz method was used for calculation of the solubilities of 1-pentene ice in liquid nitrogen in the temperature range 64.0–90.0 K and in liquid argon in the temperature range 84.0–90.0 K. The parameters l ₁₂ were also calculated. At 90.0 K liquid argon is the better solvent for 1-pentene ice than is liquid nitrogen.     

Solubility and microstructure in the pseudo-binary PbTe-Ag2Te system

The solvus lines of the PbTe and Ag₂Te phases in the pseudo-binary PbTe-Ag₂Te system have been determined using diffusion couples and unidirectional solidification by the Bridgman method. The solubilities of both Ag₂Te in PbTe and PbTe in Ag₂Te decrease with decrease in temperature. For the former, this change is from 14.9 at% Ag (694 °C) to 0.5 at% Ag (375 °C), while for the latter it is from 12.4 at% Pb (650 °C) to 3.1 at% Pb (375 °C). The decrease in solubilities leads to the formation of precipitates of Ag₂Te in PbTe and PbTe in Ag₂Te. In particular, fast atomic diffusion in Ag₂Te results in the precipitation of PbTe even in quenched samples. From the temperature dependence of these solubilities, heats of solution have been determined. In the diffusion couple, the phase boundary moves toward PbTe. In the region between the phase boundary and the initial interface, PbTe transforms to β-Ag₂Te (cubic) retaining the cube-on-cube orientation relationship.     

Spectrophotometric study of the solubility and the protolytic properties of 1-(2-pyridylazo)-2-naphthol in different ethanol–water solutions

The solubility and the protolytic constants of 1-(2-pyridylazo)-2-naphthol (PAN) have been accurately determined at temperatures between 20.0 and 30.0°C in ethanol–water solutions with ethanol concentrations ranging from 10.0% to 95.0% (v/v). The measurement of the protolytic constants is based on the spectrophotometric determination of the concentrations of the corresponding conjugate acid–base pairs in ethanol–water solutions containing PAN and hydrochloric acid or sodium hydroxide. The traditionally used pH measurements in such studies in non-aqueous solutions are thus avoided. The solubility and the protolytic constants of PAN in pure water have been calculated by extrapolating the ethanol–water results to pure water where PAN is practically insoluble. The determination of the thermodynamic data mentioned above is necessary for elucidating the interactions of PAN with various metal ions in solutions and in cation-exchange membranes (e.g., Nafion^®) used as PAN-based optodes.

The solubilities of solid pentane, 2-methylbutane (isopentane), and cyclopentane in liquid argon at 87.3 K have been measured by the filtration method. The C₅ hydrocarbon content in solution was determined using gas chromatography. The solubilities of the C₅ hydrocarbons in liquid argon at 87.3K vary from 0.61 × 10^–7 mole fraction for cyclopentane, to 1.37 × 10^–7 mole fraction for pentane, and 8.83 × 10^–6 mole fraction for 2-methylbutane. The Preston–Prausnitz method was used for calculation of the solubilities of solid C₅ hydrocarbons in liquid argon in the temperature range 84–110 K and in liquid nitrogen in the range 64–90K. The values of the solvent–solute interaction constant l ₁₂ were also calculated.     

Equilibrium solubility of 6-propyl-2-thiouracil in nine pure solvents: Determination,correlation, Hansen solubility parameter and thermodynamic properties

Investigation upon the solid–liquid equilibrium on solubility data of 6-propyl-2-thiouracil (PLT) in pure organic solvents is essential for separation and purifying in industry process. In this work, PLT solubility in nine neat solvents was experimentally determined at 278.15 K–323.15 K under P = 0.1 MPa. These selected solvents were tetrahydrofuran(THF), acetone, acetonitrile,1-butanol,1-pentanol, 2-butanol, methyl acetate, ethyl acetate,1-propyl acetate, respectively. Experiment results showed that solubility was consistent with temperature and decreased according to the order: THF > acetone>1-butanol≈1-pentanol> 2-butanol > methyl acetate > ethyl acetate>1-propyl acetate > acetonitrile. Solvent effect and Hansen solubility parameter (HSP) were incited to explain dissolution rule on solute. Four thermodynamic models (modi?ed Apelblat model, Van't model, λh model and NRTL model) were adopted to correlate PLT solubility and provide good correlations on basis of RD, ARD and RMSD. In addition, thermodynamic properties (ΔH°, ΔS° and ΔG°) of PLT dissolution process in pure solvents were discussed and proved to be endothermic, entropically driven and non-spontaneous process.     

The algorithmic calculations of solubility parameter for the determination of interactions in dextran/certain polar solvent systems

The dextran/solvent system was employed for the evaluation of the parameters and various molecular contributions on the basis of solubility parameter with regard to the theoretical methods of Hoy and Van Krevelen-Hoftyzer pair. The theoretical magnitudes correlated quite well with the experimental values determined previously for the same system. The Δδ value predicted as ?5 for various systems previously, appeared to be >5 for the dextran/solvent systems obtained from the diagrams plotted using several solubility parameter components. An order with respect to the solvent has been proposed with regard to the distance of the solubility parameter components of the solvent from the center of the circle for which, water does not seem to be a good solvent for the system under study since it remains outside the circle of those diagrams.     

Experimental measurement and modeling of solubility of LiBr and LiNO3 in methanol, ethanol, 1-propanol, 2-propanol and 1-butanol

The solubility of lithium bromide and lithium nitrate in solvents methanol, ethanol, 1-propanol, 2-propanol and 1-butanol were measured in the range between 298.15 and 338.15 K using an analytical gravimetric method. An empirical equation was used to fit the experimental solubilities and the Pitzer model with inclusion of Archer's ionic strength was used for the calculation of osmotic coefficients. The experimental data of system pressures (p) for the correlation of LiBr + ethanol, LiBr + 2-propanol at T (298.15-333.15 K) and LiNO₃ + ethanol at T (298.15-323.15 K) were obtained from published literatures. Moreover, the parameters of the Pitzer model were re-correlated and were used to predict mean ion activity coefficients. A procedure was also presented to predict the solubility products of salts in pure organic solvent.     

The Solubility and Solvation of Salts in Mixed Nonaqueous Solvents. 2. Potassium Halides in Mixed Protic Solvents

The solubilities of potassium fluoride, chloride, and bromide in ethanol, formamide, and N-methylformamide and in binary mixtures of these solvents were determined at 25°C. The standard molar Gibbs energies of solution, Δ_soln G ^o, in the neat solvents were related to their hydrogen bonding abilities. The values of Δ_soln G ^o in the mixtures were fitted with expressions of the quasilattice quasichemical theory, and the preferential solvation of the ions was thereby established.     

Solubility of Solid 1-Hexyne in Liquid Argon and Nitrogen at the Standard Boiling Points of the Solvents

The solubilities of solid 1-hexyne in liquid argon at 87.3 and in liquid nitrogen at 77.4 K have been measured by the filtration method. The hydrocarbon contents in solutions were determined using gas chromatography. GC–MS was used to identify impurities in 1-hexyne. The experimental value of the mole fraction solubility of solid 1-hexyne in liquid argon at 87.3 K is (0.85 ± 0.19) × 10^–7 and (1.25 ± 0.08) × 10^–8 in liquid nitrogen at 77.4 K.

The solubility and solvation of salts in mixed nonaqueous solvents. 1. Potassium halides in mixed aprotic solvents

The solubilities of potassium fluoride, chloride, and bromide in acetonitrile, N,N-dimethylformamide, and dimethylsulfoxide and in binary mixtures of these solvents were determined at 25°C. The standard molar Gibbs free energies of solution, _solnG°, in the neat solvents were related to the polarizabilities and basicities of the anions and the dipole moments and acidities of the solvents. The values of _solnG° in the mixtures were fitted by expressions from the quasi-lattice quasi-chemical theory. The mean number of each kind of solvent in the nearest environment of the ions was obtained from these results.     

Thermodynamics of the Solubility of Water in 1-Hexanol, 1-Octanol, 1-Decanol, and Cyclohexanol

Summary. The solubility of water in 1-hexanol, 1-octanol, 1-decanol, and cyclohexanol was determined as a function of water activity by the isopiestic method at 298.2K. The solubility of water in the alcohol was expressed by a Setchenov type of equation and the correlation coefficients were related to the virial coefficients of the McMillan-Mayer theory of solution. From the solubility data both the activities and the osmotic coefficients of the alcohols were calculated. The Henrys law constants for the solubility of water in the alcohols are given. They depend linearly on the Gibbs energy of hydration. The excess Gibbs energy of mixing of water and alcohols is positive as a consequence of the strong intermolecular interactions of the two pure components of the mixture.
