Densities and viscosities of binary liquid systems of acetonitrile with aromatic ketones at 308.15 K

The densities and viscosities for the binary mixtures of acetonitrile + aromatic ketones (acetophenone, propiophenone, paramethyl acetophenone and parachloro acetophenone) at 308.15 K over the entire range of composition are reported here. The densities and viscosities have been used to calculate the excess molar volumes and deviations in viscosity. The excess molar volumes and deviations in viscosity are fitted to a Redlich-Kister type equation. Other parameters like excess Gibbs free energy of activation of viscous flow and Grunberg-Nissan interaction constant are also utilized in the qualitative analysis to elicit the information on the nature of the bulk molecular interactions of acetonitrile + aromatic ketone binary mixtures.
