Solubility of NaI in water, methanol, ethanol, propan-2-ol,
and also in water + methanol, water + ethanol, and water + propan-2-ol
binary mixtures have been experimentally measured using a gravimetric
method at temperatures (298.15.303.15, 308.15, and 313.15) K. The
combined NIBS (nearly ideal binary solvent)–Redlic–Kister
equation is used to fit experimental solubility data at constant temperature.
The densities of the saturated solutions are also reported in pure
and binary solvent mixtures at temperatures mentioned above. Thermodynamic
functions including ΔH
soln
0, ΔG
soln
0, and
ΔS
soln
0 of solution of NaI are obtained from the modified
van’t Hoff equation. A comparison of the relative contributions
by enthalpy (ζH) and entropy (ζTS) is made which indicated
that the main contributor to the positive standard molar Gibbs energy
of solution of NaI is the entropy for solution of NaI in water + methanol
having x
C
0 < 0.5 and for all other solutions it is enthalpy.
