THE ENERGY OF HYDROGEN BONDING IN THE SYSTEM: ACETONE–BROMOFORM
A study of the equilibrium freezing-point diagram for the system acetone–bromoform shows that no solid-phase compound forms between acetone and bromoform. The diagram is of the simple eutectic type, the eutectic lying at −101° and 84 mole % acetone. The enthalpies of mixing have been determined for various compositions of mixture and the numerical value of ΔH (per mole of acetone or bromoform) extrapolated to infinite excess of bromoform or of acetone, to obtain the value for completely undissociated complex. This figure is −1.3 kcal per mole of complex (assumed mole to mole). The dipole moments, excess volumes of mixing, viscosities, and total and partial vapor pressures of the system have been measured. From these data, the excess free energy and excess entropy and other thermodynamic functions have been evaluated.
