Abstract
IN considering the effect of polarity on the vapour pressure and association of a liquid, a simple case is its influence on the partial vapour pressures of a polar liquid in its binary mixtures with a non-polar liquid, which, except for lack of polarity, should preferably be closely related in chemical structure to the polar liquid.
