Excess enthalpies of some binary mixtures of 1,2-dichloroethane and hydrocarbons

Abstract

The excess enthalpies of mixtures of 1,2-dichloroethane with cyclohexane, benzene, toluene, o-, m- and p-xylenes have been measured at 298.15 K. H^E values for the first two systems are found to be positive over the entire composition range whereas H^E changes sign with composition in the rest of the systems. Examination of the results shows that there appears to be some kind of specific interaction between aromatic hydrocarbons and 1,2-dichloroethane.
