Analysis of {α,ω-Dichloroalkane or α,ω-Dibromoalkane] + Benzene and α,ω-Dichloroalkane + Tetrachloromethane} Mixtures in Terms of Group Contributions

Abstract

Molar excess enthalpies, H ^E _m, at 298.15K and atmospheric pressure have been determined for three binary liquid mixtures [x{1,3-dichloropropane or 1,4-dichlorobutane and 1,6-dichlorohexane} + (1 - x) tetrachloromethane]. These experimental results along with the data available in the literature on molar excess Gibbs energies, G ^E _m, activity coefficients at infinite dilution, In γ^∞ _i , and molar excess enthalpies, H ^E _m, for α,ω-dihaloalkanes + benzene or + tetrachloromethane mixtures are examined on the basis of the DISQUAC group contribution model.

Key Words:

• Dihaloalkanes
• calorimetry
• DISQUAC group contribution model
• dihaloalkane-solvent interactions
