Vapour pressures,osmotic and activity coefficients for binary mixtures containing (1-ethylpyridinium ethylsulfate + several alcohols) at T = 323.15 K

Osmotic coefficients of binary mixtures containing several primary and secondary alcohols (1-propanol, 2-propanol, 1-butanol, 2-butanol, and 1-pentanol) and the pyridinium-based ionic liquid 1-ethylpyridinium ethylsulfate were determined at T = 323.15 K using the vapour pressure osmometry technique. From the experimental results, vapour pressure and activity coefficients can be determined. For the correlation of osmotic coefficients, the extended Pitzer model modified by Archer, and the modified NRTL (MNRTL) model were used, obtaining deviations lower than 0.017 and 0.047, respectively. The mean molal activity coefficients and the excess Gibbs free energy for the binary mixtures studied were determined from the parameters obtained with the extended Pitzer model modified by Archer.     

Measurement and modeling of osmotic coefficients of binary mixtures (alcohol + 1,3-dimethylpyridinium methylsulfate) at T = 323.15 K

Measurement of osmotic coefficients of binary mixtures containing several primary and secondary alcohols (1-propanol, 2-propanol, 1-butanol, 2-butanol, and 1-pentanol) and the pyridinium-based ionic liquid 1,3-dimethylpyridinium methylsulfate were performed at T = 323.15 K using the vapor pressure osmometry technique, and from experimental data, vapor pressure, and activity coefficients were determined. The extended Pitzer model modified by Archer, and the NRTL model modified by Jaretun and Aly (MNRTL) were used to correlate the experimental osmotic coefficients, obtaining standard deviations lower than 0.017 and 0.054, respectively. From the parameters obtained with the extended Pitzer model modified by Archer, the mean molal activity coefficients and the excess Gibbs free energy for the studied binary mixtures were calculated. The effect of the cation is studied comparing the experimental results with those obtained for the ionic liquid 1,3-dimethylimidazolium methylsulfate.     

Osmotic coefficients of binary mixtures of 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium methylsulfate and 1,3-dimethylimidazolium methylsulfate with alcohols at T = 323.15 K

Measurements of osmotic coefficients of BMimMSO₄ (1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium methylsulfate) and MMimMSO₄ (1,3-dimethylimidazolium methylsulfate) with ethanol, 1-propanol, and 2-propanol at T = 323.15 K are reported in this work. Vapour pressure and activity values for the binary systems studied are obtained from experimental results. The osmotic coefficients are correlated using the extended Pitzer model modified by Archer and the modified NRTL (MNRTL) model. The standard deviations obtained with both models are lower than 0.013 and 0.060, respectively. The parameters obtained with the extended Pitzer model of Archer are used to calculate the mean molal activity coefficients and the excess Gibbs free energy of the binary mixtures.

The results for the osmotic coefficients are correlated using the extended Pitzer model modified by Archer and the modified NRTL (MNRTL) model. The standard deviations obtained with both models are also given. The parameters obtained with the extended Pitzer model of Archer are used to calculate the mean molal activity coefficients.     

Diffusion coefficients of nickel chloride in aqueous solutions of lactose at T = 298.15 K and T = 310.15 K

Binary mutual diffusion coefficients (interdiffusion coefficients) of nickel chloride in water at T = 298.15 K and T = 310.15 K, and at concentrations between (0.000 and 0.100) mol · dm^?3, using a Taylor dispersion method have been measured. These data are discussed on the basis of the Onsager–Fuoss and Pikal models. The equivalent conductance at infinitesimal concentration of the nickel ion in these solutions at T = 310.15 K has been estimated using these results. Through the same technique, ternary mutual diffusion coefficients (D₁₁, D₂₂, D₁₂, and D₂₁) for aqueous solutions containing NiCl₂ and lactose, at T = 298.15 K and T = 310.15 K, and at different carrier concentrations were also measured. These data permit us to have a better understanding of the structure of these systems and the thermodynamic behaviour of NiCl₂ in different media.     

Measurements of vapour pressures and saturated-liquid densities for n-butane at T = (280 to 424) K

Fifteen measurements of the vapour pressure and seven measurements of the saturated-liquid density for n-butane were obtained by means of a metal-bellows variable volumometer at T = (280 to 424) K. The mole fraction purity of the n-butane used in the measurements was 0.9997. The expanded uncertainties (k = 2) in temperature, pressure, and density measurements have been estimated to be less than 3 mK, less than 0.8 kPa, and 0.08%, respectively. Throughout the present measurements for n-butane, the vapour-pressure value and saturated-liquid density value at each temperature were determined as average value of the pressures on various volume of the bellows at the same temperature, and as the point of intersection between the isotherm and our vapour-pressure value, respectively. The expanded uncertainties (k = 2) in the present vapour-pressure data and saturated-liquid density data have also been estimated to be less than 1.1 kPa and 0.08%, respectively, except the uncertainty of the saturated-liquid density data at T = 424 K being 0.29% (0.83 kg · m⁻³). Based on the present measurements as input data, the Wagner-type vapour-pressure correlation and the saturated-liquid density correlation were also provided for the systematic comparisons between the present measurements and the literature data.     

The buffering-out effect and phase separation in aqueous solutions of EPPS buffer with 1-propanol, 2-propanol,or 2-methyl-2-propanol at T = 298.15 K

Buffering-out is a new liquid–liquid phase separation phenomenon observed in mixtures containing a buffer as a mass separating agent. The (liquid + liquid) equilibrium (LLE) and (solid + liquid + liquid) equilibrium (SLLE) data were measured for the ternary systems {3-[4-(2-hydroxyethyl)piperazin-1-yl]propanesulfonic acid (EPPS) buffer + 1-propanol, 2-propanol, or 2-methyl-2-propanol + water} at T = 298.15 K under atmospheric pressure. The phase boundary data were fitted to an empirical equation relating to the concentrations of organic solvent and buffer. The effective excluded volume (EEV) values of EPPS were obtained from the phase boundary data. The phase-separation abilities of the investigated aliphatic alcohols were discussed. The reliability of the experimental tie-lines was satisfactorily confirmed by the Othmer–Tobias correlation. The experimental tie-lines data for the ternary systems have been correlated using the NRTL activity coefficient model. The separation of these aliphatic alcohols from their azeotropic aqueous mixtures is of particular interest to industrial process. The addition of the EPPS as an auxiliary agent breaks the (1-propanol + water) and (2-methyl-2-propanol + water) azeotropes. The possibility of using the new phase separation systems in the extraction process is demonstrated by using different dyestuffs.     

Excess molar enthalpies of binary systems containing 2-octanone,hexanoic acid,or octanoic acid at T = 298.15 K

An isothermal titration calorimeter was used to measure the excess molar enthalpies (H^E) of six binary systems at T = 298.15 K under atmospheric pressure. The systems investigated include (1-hexanol + 2-octanone), (1-octanol + 2-octanone), (1-hexanol + octanoic acid), (1-hexanol + hexanoic acid), {N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) + hexanoic acid}, and {dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) + hexanoic acid}. The values of excess molar enthalpies are all positive except for the DMSO- and the DMF-containing systems. In the 1-hexanol with hexanoic acid or octanoic acid systems, the maximum values of H^E are located around the mole fraction of 0.4 of 1-hexanol, but the H^E vary nearly symmetrically with composition for other four systems. In addition to the modified Redlich–Kister and the NRTL models, the Peng–Robinson (PR) and the Patel–Teja (PT) equations of state were used to correlate the excess molar enthalpy data. The modified Redlich–Kister equation correlates the H^E data to within about experimental uncertainty. The calculated results from the PR and the PT are comparable. It is indicated that the overall average absolute relative deviations (AARD) of the excess enthalpy calculations are reduced from 18.8% and 18.8% to 6.6% and 7.0%, respectively, as the second adjustable binary interaction parameter, k_bij, is added in the PR and the PT equations. Also, the NRTL model correlates the H^E data to an overall AARD of 10.8% by using two adjustable model parameters.     

Density and viscosity of binary liquid systems of N-methylacetamide with aromatic ketones at T = 308.15 K

The densities and flow times of binary mixtures of N-methylacetamide with acetophenone, propiophenone, paramethyl acetophenone and parachloro acetophenone have been determined at T = 308.15 K and are employed to calculate the excess molar volumes, viscosities and deviations in viscosity over the entire range of mole fraction. All isotherms of V^E as a function of composition of ketones show negative deviations except propiophenone, whereas all isotherms of Δη as a function of composition of ketones record negative deviations except parachloro acetophenone. The V^E and Δη values are fitted to a Redlich–Kister type equation. The results are interpreted in terms of molecular interactions occurring in the solutions.     

Determination of activity coefficients at infinite dilution of water and organic solutes (polar and non-polar) in the Ammoeng 100 ionic liquid at T = (308.15, 313.5, 323.15, and 333.15) K

Activity coefficients at infinite dilution $({\gamma }_{13}^{\infty })$ have been determined for 27 solutes, viz. water and organic compounds (n-alkanes, cycloalkanes, 1-alkenes, 1-alkynes, aromatics, alcohols, and ketones) in the ionic liquid Ammoeng 100, by gas–liquid chromatography at four different temperatures, T = (308.15, 313.15, 323.15, and 333.15) K. Columns with different phase loadings (20 to 24)% of the ionic liquid in the stationary phase were employed to obtain ${\gamma }_{13}^{\infty }$ values at each temperature investigated. Partial molar excess enthalpies at infinite dilution ($\mathrm{\Delta }{H}_1^{E\text{,}\infty }$) were calculated for the solutes from the temperature dependency relationship of the $\ln ({\gamma }_{13}^{\infty })$ values for the temperature range in this study. The uncertainties in the determinations of the ${\gamma }_{13}^{\infty }$ and $\mathrm{\Delta }{H}_1^{E\text{,}\infty }$ values are 6% and 10%, respectively. Selectivity values at infinite dilution ($S_{\mathit{ij}}^{\infty }$), have been computed from the ${\gamma }_{13}^{\infty }$ values to assess the potential candidacy of the Ammoeng 100 ionic liquid for the separation of alkane/alcohol mixtures. The results from this study have been compared to those available for several ionic liquids from previous investigations.     

Excess thermodynamic properties of ionic liquid 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate and N-octyl-2-pyrrolidone from T = (298.15 to 323.15) K at atmospheric pressure

Density (ρ), refractive index (n_D) and speed of sound (u) values are measured for the binary mixture of 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate and N-octyl-2-pyrrolidone over the entire range of mole fraction at temperatures from T = (298.15 to 323.15) K under atmospheric pressure. Using the basic experimental data, various acoustic and excess thermodynamic parameters are calculated and are discussed in terms of molecular interactions between the present investigated binary system. The excess values are fitted to Redlich–Kister polynomial equation to estimate the binary coefficients and standard deviation between the experimental and calculated values. Further, the molecular interactions in the binary mixture system are analysed using the experimental FT-IR spectrum recorded at room temperature.     

(Liquid + liquid) equilibria in {water + acrylic acid + (1-butanol,or 2-butanol,or 1-pentanol)} systems at T = 293.2 K,T = 303.2 K,and T = 313.2 K and atmospheric pressure

(Liquid + liquid) equilibrium (LLE) data for {water + acrylic acid + (1-butanol, or 2-butanol, or 1-pentanol)} at T = 293.2 K, T = 303.2 K, and T = 313.2 K and atmospheric pressure (≈95 kPa) were determined by Karl Fischer titration and densimetry. All systems present type I binodal curves. The size of immiscibility region changes little with an increase in temperature, but increases according to the solvent, following the order: 2-butanol < 1-butanol < 1-pentanol. Values of solute distribution and solvent selectivities show that 1-pentanol is a better solvent than 1-butanol or 2-butanol for acrylic acid removal from water solutions. Quality of data was ascertain by Hand and Othmer-Tobias equations, giving R² > 0.916, mass balance and accordance between tie lines and cloud points. The NRTL model was used to correlate experimental data, by estimating new energy parameters, with root mean square deviations below 0.0053 for all systems.     

Vapour pressures of isobutane at T = (310 to 407) K

Twenty-eight measurements of the vapour pressure for isobutane have been obtained by means of a metal-bellows variable volumometer at temperatures from 310 K to 407 K. The volume-fraction purity of isobutane used through the measurement was 0.9999. The expanded uncertainties (k = 2) in temperature and pressure measurements have been estimated to be less than ±4 mK and ±1.1 kPa, respectively. The agreement of the present measurements on various volumes of the bellows at the same temperature is almost within the absolute average deviations of ±0.2 kPa. The discrepancies between two series of the present measurement, in which the sample fillings and adopted platinum resistance thermometers are different, have also been confirmed as enough lower than the experimental uncertainty. Throughout the present study, the direct comparisons of the vapour-pressure measurements on the same temperatures with several points data from the literatures were made in order to assess the reliability of the present ones quantitatively. In addition, based on the present measurements as input data, the Wagner-type vapour-pressure correlation was provided, which was also used for the systematic comparisons between the present measurement and the literature data.     

Hygrometric determination of water activities,osmotic and activity coefficients of (NaCl + KCl)(aq) at T = 298.15 K

The purpose of this study is to present a model for the prediction of water activity in multicomponent aqueous solutions containing a common ion from available binary data. The hygrometric method has been used to measure relative humidities for the aqueous electrolyte mixture (NaCl  +  KCl)(aq) at total molalities ranging from 0.2 mol · kg ^− 1to saturation for different molal ratiosr of NaCl(aq) to KCl(aq) with r =  (0.2, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, and 4) at T =  298.15 K. The data obtained have been used to determine water activities and osmotic coefficients. The results show that the values of water activities and osmotic coefficients calculated with the proposed model are close to the experimental ones. This model is also compared with four other models (RS, Pitzer, RWR, and LS II) over the range of the studied total molalities. From the measurements, the activity coefficients of NaCl(aq) and KCl(aq) in the mixture have also been determined.     

Excess properties of the binary mixtures of methylcyclohexane + alkanes (C6 to C12) at T = 298.15 K to T = 308.15 K

Experimental values of density, viscosity, and refractive index at T = (298.15, 303.15, and 308.15) K while the speed of sound at T = 298.15 K in the binary mixtures of methylcyclohexane with n-hexane, n-heptane, n-octane, n-nonane, n-decane, n-dodecane, and iso-octane are presented over the entire mole fraction range of the binary mixtures. Using these data, excess molar volume, deviations in viscosity, molar refraction, speed of sound, and isentropic compressibility are calculated. All the computed quantities are fitted to Redlich and Kister equation to derive the coefficients and estimate the standard error values. Such a study on model calculations in addition to presentation of experimental data on binary mixtures are useful to understand the mixing behaviour of liquids in terms of molecular interactions and orientational order–disorder effects.     

Thermodynamic properties of (NaCl + KCl + LiCl + H2O) at T = 298.15 K: Water activities,osmotic and activity coefficients

The water activities of aqueous electrolyte mixture (NaCl + KCl + LiCl + H₂O) were experimentally determined at T = 298.15 K by the hygrometric method at total ionic-strength from 0.4 mol · kg⁻¹ to 6 mol · kg⁻¹ for different ionic-strength fractions y of NaCl with y = 1/3, 1/2, and 2/3. The data allow the deduction of new osmotic coefficients. The results obtained were correlated by Pitzer’s model and Dinane’s mixing rules ECA I and ECA II for calculations of the water activity in mixed aqueous electrolytes. A new Dinane–Pitzer model is proposed for the calculation of osmotic coefficients in quaternary aqueous mixtures using the newly ternary and quaternary ionic mixing parameters of this studied system. The solute activity coefficients of component in the mixture are also determined for different ionic-strength fractions y of NaCl.
