This book considers various methods of experimental study of thermal and caloric properties of pure substances and binary mixtures in wide ranges of the variation of independent variables, including the near critical region. Containing over 100 tables and figures, and exhaustively researched (over 500 references are listed), this monograph is addressed to both theorists and experimenters working in the fields of molecular physics, chemical technology, and power engineering, as well as researchers, lecturers, postgraduates, and students.
Thermodynamic Properties of Nonelectrolyte Solutions reviews several of the more classical theories on the thermodynamics of nonelectrolyte solutions. Basic thermodynamic principles are discussed, along with predictive methods and molecular thermodynamics. This book is comprised of 12 chapters; the first of which introduces the reader to mathematical relationships, such as concentration variables, homogeneous functions, Euler's theorem, exact differentials, and method of least squares. The discussion then turns to partial molar quantities, ideal and nonideal solutions, and empirical expressions for predicting the thermodynamic properties of multicomponent mixtures from binary data. The chapters that follow explore binary and ternary mixtures containing only nonspecific interactions; the thermodynamic excess properties of liquid mixtures and ternary alcohol-hydrocarbon systems; and solubility behavior of nonelectrolytes. This book concludes with a chapter describing the use of gas-liquid chromatography in determining the activity coefficients of liquid mixtures and mixed virial coefficients of gaseous mixtures. This text is intended primarily for professional chemists and researchers, and is invaluable to students in chemistry or chemical engineering who have background in physical chemistry and classical thermodynamics.
Vapor-liquid equilibrium data, heat of mixing (excess enthalpies), and volumetric properties of systems are required for both the applications in design of industrial technological processes and the understanding the structure and the intermolecular interactions in the systems. On the basis of classical thermodynamics the measured experimental data combined together enable us the calculation of non-measurable thermodynamic properties significant for the technological calculations. The present volume is a compilation of experimental and derived property data on subcritical binary homogeneous (single-phase) or heterogeneous (two-phase) liquid–liquid mixtures. All the components are well-defined pure substances, which are organic nonelectrolytes and water. The present volume is divided into three subvolumes (A, B, C). 800 representative data sets that cover all types of properties and chemical systems are selected for Subvolume A. While Subvolume B comprises 1032 data sets for binary mixtures containing one or two hydrocarbons, Subvolume C is providing 1014 data sets for non-hydrocarbon binary mixtures.
The present volume is a compilation of volumetric property data on subcritical binary homogeneous (single-phase) or heterogeneous (two-phase) liquid liquid mixtures. All the components are well-defined pure substances, which are organic or inorganic nonelectrolytes, including low-melting ionic liquids and water. Only data obtained by, or derived from, direct experimental measurements are considered. The present database contains numerical data for 3114 systems. The book reproduces in tables and graphs the numerical values for only 843 binary mixtures, chosen to be representative of several compound classes and property types. The full set of data is available online on www.springerlink.com: http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-3-540-73584-7. The ELBT.EXE program can be downloaded as electronic supplementary material (ESM). It permits to search, retrieve, display and export the totality of 3114 numerical data sets in five formats: PDF (the same format as in the book), SELF, ELDATA, and the XML versions of SELF and ELDATA. The ELBT-program allows the fast search of data according to property type, chemical system, author(s), source and year of publication. It permits in some cases the correlation of the experimental data and save the results of the calculations in separate files.
