The values of speed of sound (U), density (ρ) and viscosity (η) of pure liquids and the mixture of methyl benzoate + 1-propanol/1-butanol/1-pentanol with benzene were measured over the entire mole fraction range at T=303.15 K. From these values, various thermo-acoustic parameters such as excess molar volume (V E ), excess isentropic compressibility (Ks E ), and excess free length (Lf E ), excess Gibbs free energy (∆G *E ) and excess enthalpy (H E ) are calculated. The reason for deviations in these excess parameters is explained based on the intermolecular interactions present in these liquids.
