The molar heat capacity at constant pressure Cp, for the three binary liquid mixtures carbon tetrachloride + benzene, carbon tetrachloride + cyclohexane, and benzene + cyclohexane was determined at 298.15 K from measurements of the volumetric heat capacity Cp/V in a Picker flow microcalorimeter (V is the molar volume). For the molar excess heat capacity CpE, the precision of the adopted stepwise procedure is characterized by a standard deviation of ±0.03 JK‐1mol‐1 or smaller (which is less than 2% of the maximal ∣CPE∣ ). The use of these three systems as test mixtures for measurements of CPE, “of binary nonelectrolyte systems is recommended. ‐Auxiliary data from the literature on ultrasonic velocities, molar volumes and thermal expansivities were used to calculate the molar heat capacity at constant volume Cv, and the isothermal compressibility βT of the pure substances, as well as the corresponding excess quantities CvE and (VβT)E of the binary systems. A discussion of our results in terms of external rotational behavior of the molecules is presented.
