Densities of dilute aqueous solutions of thiourea, 1,3-dimethylurea, and 1,3dimethylthiourea were obtained using the Anton Paar DMA 5000 M vibrating-tube densimeter. The apparent molar volumes and expansibilities (down to infinite dilution) were computed from the measured density data. The experiments were performed at five temperatures from (278.15 to 318.15) K and atmospheric pressure. A comparison of volumetric and some other thermodynamic changes caused by the N,N′-methylation in thiourea and urea molecules are discussed.
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.
