Thermodynamics of transfer of non-ionic solutes between immiscible liquid phases. I. Transfer of normal alcohols fromn-octane to water at 25°C

A recently developed calorimetric method has been employed to estimate the thermodynamic functions for transfer of 1-propanol, 1-butanol, 1-pentanol, 1-hexanol and 1-heptanol from n-octane to water at 25°C. A linear correlation for G _t ^o as a function of the number of carbon atoms of the alchohol molecule has been found but for H _t ^o and S _t ^o the dependence gave well defined minima.
