Abstract

Ultrasonic velocity, density and percentage deviation in velocity were measured for mixtures of n-alkanes, namely, n-octane, n-decane, n-dodecane and n-tetradecane with octan-2-ol at 298 K. The experimental sound velocity data were compared by using three theoretical relations, namely, Nomoto relation, Vandael ideal mixing relation and Schaaffs collision factor theory to predict which one of them agrees the experimental data. It was observed that Nomoto relation was the best suited method in all the four binary systems. Hence, in the real time applications which are using the above said components can be handled without experimental expenses. The experimental data were used to calculate the interaction parameter (α), adiabatic compressibility (β), intermolecular free length (Lf), excess velocity (UE), excess impedance (ZE) and excess volume (VE) which were discussed to identify the molecular interactions in terms of non-ideality in the binary liquid mixtures. It was observed that the increase of mole fraction of octan-2-ol with different n-alkanes dipole–induced dipole interactions were supported.
