Özet:

Experimental densities, viscosities, refractive indices, and sound speeds at temperature 298.15 K and atmospheric pressure are reported for the binary liquid mixtures of ethanol + benzene, ethanol + pyridine, and benzene + pyridine. From these experimental data, various thermodynamic excess and deviation properties were calculated and fitted by the Redlich-Kister polynomial to determine the adjustable coefficients and the standard deviations. The number of Redlich-Kister coefficients for significantly representing each thermodynamic property was optimized by applying the F-test. The variation of thermodynamic excess and deviation properties with composition has been interpreted in terms of molecular interactions between components of the mixture and structural effects. Furthermore, several theoretical and semi-empirical models were used to predict the refractive indices and sound speeds of the investigated mixtures. The predicting ability of each model was ascertained in terms of mean absolute percentage deviation between experimental and calculated data.
