Abstract

Vapor pressures for the benzene+n-tetradecane system have been measured using a static apparatus. The excess Gibbs free energy was calculated using a modified Barker method and a Pade approximant equation. The selection of the most adequate approximation is discussed. Results are compared with those corresponding to other thermodynamic properties. The activity coefficient of benzene at infinite dilution calculated from these data agrees well with the value obtained from the literature.
