Acoustical parameters of toluene + chloroform + cyclohexane mixtures at 303.15, 308.15, and 313.15 K

Ultrasonic velocity, density and viscosity of the ternary mixture of toluene + chloroform + cyclohexane, were measured at 303.15, 308.15, and 313.15 K. The thermodynamically parameters such as adiabatic compressibility (??), intermolecular free length (L _f), free volume (V _f), internal pressure (?? _i ), acoustic impedance (Z), molar sound velocity (R), and molar compressibility (W) have been obtained from the experimental data for all the mixtures, with a view to investigate the exact nature of molecular interaction. Adiabatic compressibility and intermolecular free length decrease with increase in concentration and temperature. The other parameters show almost increasing concentration of solutes. These parameters have been further used to interpret the molecular interaction part of the solute and solvent in the mixtures.

Various thermo-acoustical parameters of 1,4-dioxane, tetrahydofuran and ethylacetae solutions of 1,1′-bis(4-isopropyloxyacetylphenoxy)cyclohexane were determined at different temperatures using density, viscosity and ultrasonic speed and correlated with concentration. Linear increase of ultrasonic speed, specific acoustical impedance, Rao’s molar sound function, Van der Waals constant and free volume with concentration C and decreased with temperature. Linear decrease of adiabatic compressibility, internal pressure, intermolecular free path length, classical absorption coefficient, and viscous relaxation time with concentration and increased with temperature indicated existence of strong molecular interactions in solutions and further supported by positive values of solvation number. Gibbs free energy of activation decreased with C in all three systems. It is decreased with T in 1,4-dioxane, while increased in tetrahydrofuran and ethyl acetate. Both enthalpy of activation and entropy of activation are increased gradually with C in 1,4-dioxane, while they are negative and remained practically independent of concentration in 1,4-dioxane and tetrahydofuran systems.

Apparent molar volumes, apparent molar adiabatic compressibilities and viscosity B-coefficients for metformin hydrochloride in aqueous d-glucose solutions were determined from solution densities, sound velocities and viscosities measured at T = (298.15–318.15) K and at pressure p = 101 kPa as a function of the metformin hydrochloride concentrations. The standard partial molar volumes (\( \phi_{V}^{0} \)) and slopes (\( S_{V}^{*} \)) obtained from the Masson equation were interpreted in terms of solute–solvent and solute–solute interactions, respectively. Solution viscosities were analyzed using the Jones–Dole equation and the viscosity A and B coefficients discussed in terms of solute–solute and solute–solvent interactions, respectively.

The density and speed of sound of L-arginine (0.025–0.2 mol kg^?1) in aqueous + D-maltose (0–6 mass% of maltose in water) were obtained at temperatures of (298.15, 303.15 and 308.15) K. The apparent molar volume, limiting apparent molar volume, transfer volume, as well as apparent molar compressibility, limiting apparent molar compressibility, transfer compressibility, pair and triple interaction coefficients, partial molar expansibilities, coefficient of thermal expansion and also the hydration number, were calculated using the experimental density and speed of sound values. The results have been discussed in terms of solute–solute and solute–solvent interactions in these systems. Solute–solvent (hydrophilic–ionic group and hydrophilic–hydrophilic group) interactions were found to be dominating over solute–solute (hydrophobic–hydrophilic group) interactions in the solution, which increases with increase in maltose concentration.     

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.     

Isothermal compressibility and internal pressure studies of some non-electrolytes in aqueous solutions at low temperatures

The experimental data of density (ρ) and sound velocity (u) in the temperature range (275.15 to 293.15) K have been obtained for the systems (dioxane + water), (dimethylformamide + water), (tetrahydrofuran + water), and (acetonitrile + water). The specific heat (C_p) data for the above systems have been obtained at T = 279.15 K. The data obtained are used to calculate the derived parameters of adiabatic compressibility (β_S), at T = 275.15 K to T = 283.15 K, isothermal compressibility (β_T), and internal pressure (P_i) at T = 279.15 K for different concentrations. The solute properties: apparent molar volume (ϕ_V), apparent molar expansivity (ϕ_E), and apparent molar compressibility (ϕ_KS) have been studied and the limiting values for these properties are reported. The variation in apparent molar properties with concentration and the corresponding temperature and pressure effects are discussed in terms of hydrophobic hydration (–H bonding interaction) and hydrophobic interaction (non-polar group solute–solute association in water). It is noted that the internal pressure of solutions is quite insensitive in the region of solute–solute association, while its variation with concentration in the dilute region is sensitive in contrast to the aqueous alcohol solutions. The molecular interactions also exhibit individualistic behaviour and are much dependent on structural alterations in water structure.     

(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.
