Densities and speeds of sound for {(1,5-dichloropentane or 1,6-dichlorohexane) + dodecane} in the
temperature interval (278.15 to 328.15) K were determined using a tube vibrating densimeter and sound
analyzer (Anton-Paar DSA-48). Isobaric heat capacities per unit volume for the same systems were
measured in the temperature interval (283.15 to 323.15) K by means of a micro DSC II calorimeter using
the scanning method. In all cases, measurements were made at atmospheric pressure. From these data,
the molar volumes, isobaric and isochoric molar heat capacities, isentropic and isothermal compressibilities,
and isobaric thermal expansivities as well as their excess quantities were calculated. Some comments
related to the influence of the well-known effects of {polar + long alkyl chain linear alkane} on excess
properties were included.
