Thermodynamic Properties of Ethylbenzene Vapor from 300° to 1500°K

Abstract

In this paper are presented tables of the more important thermodynamic functions of ethylbenzene in the ideal gas state from 300° to 1500°K. These functions were calculated using spectroscopic, structural, and calorimetric data. Six investigations of the Raman spectrum of ethylbenzene and three of the infra‐red absorption spectrum were available for an assignment of frequencies to the intramolecular vibrations. Included in the paper is a calculation from calorimetric data of the enthalpy and entropy of saturated vapor at 294°K relative to the solid at 0°K. This paper completes a report on a determination of the thermodynamic properties of ethylbenzene covering the solid, liquid, and vapor phases, extending from 0° to 1500°K. All the experimental results are presented in detail in preceding papers.
