Static permittivity, density, speed of sound, and refractive index of 2-propoxyethanol mixtures with water in a wide temperature range
The static permittivity, epsilon(r), density, rho, speed of sound, u, and refractive index, n(D), of water + 2-propoxyethanol mixtures were measured over the entire range of mixture composition in a wide temperature range. The experimental values of density and speed of sound were used to determine the molar volume, V-m, adiabatic compressibility, beta(S), and their excess values. Also the values of partial molar volumes (V) over bar (1) and (V) over bar (2) as well as the thermodynamic parameters namely the entropy derivative after pressure, partial derivative S/partial derivative p, enthalpy derivative after pressure, partial derivative H/partial derivative p and molar heat derivative after pressure, partial derivative C/partial derivative p of the mixtures were determined. The experimental data of static permittivity were used to determine deviations from the additivity of permittivity, Delta epsilon(r), excess of this value, epsilon(r) (E), temperature coefficient of permittivity, partial derivative ln epsilon(r)/partial derivative T, and their excesses, (partial derivative ln epsilon(r)/partial derivative T)(E). Using the results of refractometric analysis and static permittivity, the values of Kirkwood's correlation factor, g(K), and their excess values, g(K)(E), were also determined. The concentration and temperature dependent results of the mixtures were used in the analysis of hydrogen bond interactions occurring between the molecules of water and 2-propoxyethanol.
