URIETA, and CELSO GUTIERREZ LOSA. Can. J. Chem. 68, 435 (1990).Solubility measurements of He, Ne, Ar, Kr, Xe, Hz, DZ, N2, CH4, C2H4, C2H6, CF4, SF6, and C 0 2 in 2,6-dimethylcyclohexanone at temperatures 273.15 to 303.15 K and at a gas partial pressure of 101.33 kPa are reported. Standard changes in Gibbs energy, enthalpy, and entropy for the dissolution process at 298.15 K are also presented. Results for both solubility and thermodynamic functions are compared with those for cyclohexanone and 2-methylcyclohexanone. The scaled particle theory is used to obtain the effective Lennard-Jones (6,12) pair potential parameters for 2,6-dimethylcyclohexanone and, from these, the values it predicts for the solubility of the studied gases in the solvent are obtained.
