Abstract

The behaviour of mixture of acetophenone  and  benzene  as a function of temperature and composition  has been investigated by measuring sound velocity in conjunction with density at 303.15, 313.15and 323.15 K. Derived parameters computed from density (?) and sound velocity (U) have been used to determine excess molar volumes (VME), excess isentropic compressibilities (KSE) and excess inter molecular free length (LfE).The excess functions have been discussed in terms of intermolecular interactions between the components of binary mixture. The validity of various theoretical approaches of liquids has been tested for the system by comparing theoretical sound speeds with those experimentally determined over the entire composition range in the temperature range 303.15-323.15K. The computed results have been fitted to the Redlich-Kister polynomial equation to estimate the smoothening coefficients and standard deviations for this system. The validity of various theoretical approaches of liquids has been tested for the system by comparing theoretical sound speeds with those experimentally determined over the entire composition range in the temperature303.15-323.15K.
