Excess volumes and sound velocities for binary liquid mixtures of acetophenone with n-alcohols and ialcohols are measured at 303.15 K. The sound velocity and density data are used to calculate the isentropic compressibilities (k,) and deviations in isentropic compressibilities (AkJ. The values of V' are negative in all the systems except in the system, acetophenone + n-heptanol wherein the V L values are positive.Deviations in isentropic compressibilities are negative in all the systems over the entire range of composition. The data are used to explain the possible intermolecular interactions between unlike molecules. K E Y WORDS: Sound velocity. compressibility.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
