Excess volumes and excess heat capacities of nitromethane plus (1-propanol or 2-propanol)

Densities and heat capacities of binary mixtures containing nitromethane + (1-propanol or 2-propanol) were determined at the temperatures (288.15, 293.15, 298.15, and 308.15) K and atmospheric pressure, over the whole composition range. Excess molar volumes and excess molar isobaric heat capacities were calculated from the results thus obtained. The effect of specific interactions on the excess properties, and the dependence on the position of the OH group in the alkanol, are analysed. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
