Studies on the intermolecular interactions in the binary mixtures of nitrobenzene with 2-methoxyethanol, 2-ethoxyethanol, 2-propoxyethanol and 2-butoxyethanol at T = 298.15 K

Densities, viscosities and speeds of sound, at T?=?298.15?K, in the binary mixtures of nitrobenzene with 2-methoxyethanol, 2-ethoxyethanol, 2-propoxyethanol and 2-butoxyethanol have been measured as a function of composition. From the experimental data excess molar volumes V E, excess energies of activation for viscous flow (G* E), excess isentropic compressibility and the deviations in the viscosity (?ln??) from a mole fraction average have been calculated. The viscosity data were correlated with equations of Hind et al., Grunberg and Nissan, Frenkel, and McAllister. The results are discussed in terms of intermolecular interactions and structure of studied binary mixtures.
