Apparent molal volumes of two local anesthetics, lidocaine HCl and procaine HCl, in water at (298.15, 303.15, and 310.15) K have been measured in the concentration range from (0.01 to 0.1) mol‚kg -1 . The densities were obtained with a magnetic float densimeter. The concentration dependence of V φ has been calculated using the Redlich and Meyer equation. The values of apparent molal volumes at infinite dilution, V φ 0 , the empirical constants B V , and the partial molal expansibilities, E φ 0 , were calculated. The results are interpreted in terms of competitive effects between electrostriction and hydrophobic solvation.
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.
