Volumetric and Viscometric Studies of Molecular Interactions of Binary Liquid Mixtures of Styrene with Acetone and Dimethylsulphoxide at Different Temperatures

Abstract

The present work reports the results of densities, ρ, viscosities, η, ultrasonic speeds, u, and refractive indices, n, of pure styrene (STY), acetone (ACT) and dimethylsulphoxide (DMSO) and of their binary liquid mixtures over the entire composition range at 298.15, 303.15, 308.15, and 313.15 K. The excess molar volumes, V ^E , excess intermolecular free lengths, , deviations in isentropic compressibilities, Δk _s , viscosities, Δη, and in refractive indices, Δn were calculated from the experimental data. Partial molar volumes, , and partial molar compressibilities, , of ACT and DMSO in styrene at infinite dilution and at different temperatures have been evaluated. Apart from using density data for the calculation of V ^E , excess molar volumes have also been estimated by using the Flory's statistical theory and refractive index measurements.
