Abstract: Viscosities which are accurate to ± 0.01mP, have been measured for binary liquid mixtures of acetylene tetrachloride (CHCl2CHCl2,hereafter abbreviated simply as ATC) with benzene, toluene, p-xylene, acetone and cyclohexane at 303.15 ±0.01K. The values of the quantity Δη, which refer to the deviations of the experimental values of the dynamic viscosities of the mixtures from the mole fraction mixture law values, have been found to be negative for the systems ATC-benzene, ATC-toluene, ATC-p-xylene and ATC-cyclohexane. For ATC-acetone, ∆η has been found to be negative at low mole fractions of ATC and positive at high mole fractions. Also the values of the parameter d have been calculated from the equation ln η = x1 ln η1+x2 ln η2 +x1 x2 d, where η1 & η2 refer to the dynamic viscosities of the two pure liquids 1 and 2 whose mole fractions in the mixtures are x1 & x2 respectively. The values of d indicate the existence of specific interaction of ATC with benzene, toluene, p-xylene and acetone. The viscosity data have been analysed in the light of absolute reaction rate and free volume theories of liquid viscosity.

Abstract: The partial molar volumes, isentropic compressibilities, partial molar isentropic compressions and transfer molar quantities of cyclic alanylalanine in water and in aqueous solutions of MnCl2, NiCl2 and ZnCl2 were determined using the experimental density and speed of sound values. Refractive indices of all the solutions were recorded to calculate the molar refractions. The molecular interactions existing in the systems have been discussed based on the derived parameters. It has been found that M2+-O2H bond distances of hydrated cations influence on the volumetric properties of cyclic alanylalanine. Further, the greater effect of hydrophobic hydration has been substantiated by the Sv values of least square fits of apparent molar volume against solute molality.

Abstract: This paper reports densities at atmospheric pressure and at three temperatures T = (283.15, 298.15, and 313.15) K of eight binary mixtures involving a branched hexane (3-methylpentane or 2,2-dimethylbutane) and each one of the isomeric chlorobutanes (1-chlorobutane, 2-chlorobutane, 1-chloro-2-methylpropane or 2-chloro-2-methylpropane). Excess volumes were calculated from experimental densities and correlated with the Redlich-Kister equation. Moreover, the excess volumes were analysed using the Prigogine-Flory-Patterson theory.
