Journal of Solution Chemistry Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

The partial molar volume at infinite dilution of aqueous solutions of 3-aminopropanoic acid, 4-aminobutanoic acid, 5-aminopentanoic acid and 6-aminohexanoic acid were determined at T=(293.15,298.15,303.15 and 308.15 K) from density measurements. The thermodynamic behavior of the aqueous α,ω-amino acid solutions is compared with that reported for α-amino acids in water. The interaction volume is calculated and the influence of charged and uncharged groups of the amino acids is discussed in terms of solute–solvent interactions.
