Mechanical Interpretation

The solubility of water in each of benzene, carbon tetrachloride, and cyclohexane, was determined at 5° intervals over the range 10 to 40 °C. The solubilities were converted to Henry's law constants and these constants were interpreted by means of a statistical mechanical theory based on Zwanzig's perturbation theory of fluids. A fitting-parameter in the form of a correction factor to the water–solvent pairwise potential function was required. The values of this parameter for the benzene–water and cyclohexane–water systems could be rationalized on the basis of anisotropy of solvent polarizability. The values of the parameter for the carbon tetrachloride – water system were consistent with a hydrogen-bonding interaction between water and carbon tetrachloride.

Measurements of the mutual diffusion coefficient of the n -propanol-water and isopropanol-water systems have been performed at a pressure of 10 5 Pa by means of a flow technique. The results extend over the complete composition range for the mixtures and over the temperature range 25-65 °C. The reported diffusivities have an estimated uncertainty of + 2.5% Both the systems studied exhibit the minimum in the diffusivity as a function of composition at constant temperature which is characteristic of alcoho-lwater mixtures. In addition, a local maximum in the diffusivity occurs along an isotherm for alcohol-rich mixtures; this type of behaviour has not been observed hitherto. The data are compared with other transport and equilibrium properties for the mixtures, and with a simplified form of the statistical mechanical theory.
