Effect of temperature on the volumetric properties of (cyclohexanone + an aromatic hydrocarbon)

The excess molar volume of (cyclohexanone + benzene, or toluene, or ethylbenzene, or styrene) were obtained from the densities measured by means of a vibrating-tube densimeter over the whole composition range at temperatures (293.15, 303.15, 313.15, 323.15, 333.15, 343.15, 353.15) K and atmospheric pressure. The excess molar volume provide the temperature dependence of in the temperature range of (293 to 353) K. The results were correlated using the fourth-order Redlich-Kister equation, with the maximum likelihood principle being applied for the determination of the adjustable parameters. It was found that the in the systems studied increase with rising temperature.
