“…This reverse trend seems to be attributed to the opposite effects of the molecular size and the intramolecular interaction (hydrogen bonding, or self-association) in the four alcohols, which directly interfere in the packing effect as well as in the interactive behaviour between ether and alcohol. The above findings lend support, using the data of heats of mixing of those mixtures available in the literature, (12) to the proposal above As the temperature is lowered, the packing effect in all four mixtures is also lowered, according to figure 1, probably due to the increase in the intramolecular interaction in the alcohol component. This trend of temperature effect is also observed in the results of isentropic compressibility, figures 3 and 4.…”
