Abstract

Densities have been measured by an oscillating-tube densimeter for aqueous solutions of glycylglycine and glycylglycylglycine in aqueous xylitol solutions with xylitol mass fractions ranging from 0 to 0.15 at 298.15 K. Apparent molar volumes and limiting partial molar volumes have been used to calculate the corresponding transfer volumes from water to different concentrations of xylitol + water mixtures. The results are interpreted in terms of the cosphere overlap model.
