Density, sound velocity and conductivity measurements are carried out on 1-heptyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide ([C7mim][Br]) in pure water and in aqueous solutions of sodium di-hydrogen citrate, di-sodium hydrogen citrate and tri-sodium citrate over a range of temperatures at atmospheric pressure. The experimental density and sound velocity data are used to calculate the apparent molar volume and isentropic compressibility as a function of temperature and concentration. The effects of temperature and charge on the anion of sodium citrate salts on the apparent molar volume and isentropic compressibility of [C7mim][Br] are studied. It was found that both of the apparent molar volume and isentropic compressibility of [C7mim][Br] in aqueous sodium citrate solutions are larger than those in pure water and increase by increasing temperature. The effects of temperature and charge on the anion of sodium citrate salts on the conductivity behavior of the investigated IL solutions are also studied.
