Excess Molar Volumes of Binary Mixtures of Propyl Ethanoate with some n-Alkanes at 298.15 K and 308.15 K

Abstract

Excess molar volumes v^E have been measured for the binary liquid mixtures of propyl ethanoate with five n-alkanes (n-hexane, n-heptane, n-octane, n-nonane and n-decane) at 298.15 and 308.15 K, using an Anton Paar densimeter. All the mixtures studied present positive v^E values that increase with the length of the chain of the alkane and with the temperature. The experimental results are compared with the predictions of the Nitta—Chao model.
