“…It is important to remark that experimental D mix n values given by Equation (38) have frequently been interpreted as excess refractive indices of mixtures, as recommended by Brocos et al [14] By contrast, no n E values calculated in terms of Equations (39) or (40) could be found in the literature. On the other hand, reporting the empirically defined change Dn(x A ) = nÀ(x A n A * +x B n B * ) is popular, although it can exhibit the opposite sign of D mix n, as for example in binary mixtures of 1,3-dioxalane with pentan-2-one, heptan-2-one or cyclopentanone at 298 K. [29] We advance the suggestion to base the analysis of refractive indices of real mixtures on the sign of n E .…”

“…There is no universally agreed definition for the refractive index of thermodynamically ideal liquid mixtures, although Brocos et al [14] have argued in favour of adopting our n(unmixed) as calculated by Equation (6) for this purpose. Here we develop a theoretical approach to this question based on the relationship between refractive indices and high-frequency relative permittivities, together with a recent molecular [6b] and thermodynamic [6a,c,d] derivation of the ideal mixing law for relative permittivities.…”

“…In the present context we mention the line of enquiry initiated by Nakata and Sakurai [4] aiming to predict V m E values from experimentally measured refractive indices. However, this type of analysis, which has been used and further developed by several authors, [14,34,37] has led invariably to the prediction of V m E values of the opposite sign of D mix n values. A realistic general approach should be able to accommodate all of the four possible sign combinations between n E and V m E noted above to have been observed in real binary systems.…”

Refractive Index of Liquid Mixtures: Theory and Experiment

An innovative approach is presented to interpret the refractive index of binary liquid mixtures. The concept of refractive index "before mixing" is introduced and shown to be given by the volume-fraction mixing rule of the pure-component refractive indices (Arago-Biot formula). The refractive index of thermodynamically ideal liquid mixtures is demonstrated to be given by the volume-fraction mixing rule of the pure-component squared refractive indices (Newton formula). This theoretical formulation entails a positive change of refractive index upon ideal mixing, which is interpreted in terms of dissimilar London dispersion forces centred in the dissimilar molecules making up the mixture. For real liquid mixtures, the refractive index of mixing and the excess refractive index are introduced in a thermodynamic manner. Examples of mixtures are cited for which excess refractive indices and excess molar volumes show all of the four possible sign combinations, a fact that jeopardises the finding of a general equation linking these two excess properties. Refractive indices of 69 mixtures of water with the amphiphile (R,S)-1-propoxypropan-2-ol are reported at five temperatures in the range 283-303 K. The ideal and real refractive properties of this binary system are discussed. Pear-shaped plots of excess refractive indices against excess molar volumes show that extreme positive values of excess refractive index occur at a substantially lower mole fraction of the amphiphile than extreme negative values of excess molar volume. Analysis of these plots provides insights into the mixing schemes that occur in different composition segments. A nearly linear variation is found when Balankina's ratios between excess and ideal values of refractive indices are plotted against ratios between excess and ideal values of molar volumes. It is concluded that, when coupled with volumetric properties, the new thermodynamic functions defined for the analysis of refractive indices of liquid mixtures give important complementary information on the mixing process over the whole composition range.

To understand the nature of molecular aggregation between two solvents, excess properties (e.g. excess molar volume (V ), excess Gibb's free energy of activation viscous flow (∆G* E ) and viscosity deviation of binary mixtures) are therefore needed. Thus, in the current study, the refractive index (nD), viscosity (η), and density (ρ) of binary mixtures were measured for tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol (THFA) with ethanol, 2-propanol and 2-butanol at 298.15K. Moreover and based on experimentally obtained results, the V , the refractive index deviation (∆nD), excess molar viscosity (η E ) and ∆G* E were calculated. To correct and fit the experimental V , η
