Sound Speeds and Excess Isentropic Compressibilities of Binary Liquid Mixtures of m-Xylene with Nitrotoluenes

Abstract

Sound speeds (u) were measured and excess isentropic compressibilities (KSE) were computed from the measured sound speed (u) and density (ρ) data for the binary liquid mixtures of m-xylene with o- and m- nitrotoluenes at T= (298.15 K, 303.15 K, 308.15 K and 313.15 K). These values are negative for the studied binary liquid mixtures. The excess isentropic compressibilitiy (KSE) values are analysed on the basis of molecular interactions between unlike non-electrolyte molecules.
