Thermodynamic and Transport Properties of the System Iso-Octane and Perfluoroheptane

Abstract

While there are many experimental measurements on binary liquid systems, very few measurements have been designed specifically for statistical mechanical analysis. This paper describes an effort to design a series of experiments to secure all necessary information for theoretical analysis. The necessary measurements are those of vapor pressure, heats of mixing, variation of density with composition, and measurements of the viscosities of mixed vapors. This system of experiments is used on the system perfluoroheptane and iso‐octane. The analysis of the data is discussed and calculations of the thermodynamic properties and intermolecular potential are carried out.
