Excess Molar Volumes, Excess Molar Enthalpies, and Excess Isentropic Compressibilities of Binary Mixtures Containing N-Methyl-2-Pyrrolidone and Isomeric Xylenes at 308.15 K

摘要

Excess molar volumes, excess molar enthalpies and speeds of sound of 1-methyl pyrrolidin-2-one + o- or m- or p-xylene binary mixtures have been measured over the entire composition range at 308.15 K. The speed of sound data were used to determine the excess isentropic compressibilities. It is observed that while the values of the excess molar enthalpies for the investigated mixtures are positive, the values of the excess molar volumes and excess isentropic compressibilities are negative over the entire composition range. The measured thermodynamic data have been analyzed in terms of Graph, Prigogine–Flory–Patterson, and the Sanchez and Lacombe theories. It is observed that Graph theory correctly predicts the signs and magnitudes of the excess molar volumes, excess molar enthalpies, and excess isentropic compressibilities of the studied mixtures. However, the excess molar volumes, excess molar enthalpies and excess isentropic compressibilities predicted by Prigogine–Flory–Patterson and Sanchez and Lacombe theories are of same sign.
