Abstract
Ultrasonic velocity (u), viscosity (η) and density (Ï) have been measured for binary mixtures of dimethyl sulphoxide (DMSO) with propanoic acid (PA) and n-butyric acid (BA) at three temperature 293 K, 303 K and 313 K, over the entire range of composition. Deviation in isentropic compressibility ÎβS, deviation in viscosity Îη and excess free energy of activation for viscous flow ÎGâE have been calculated using experimental values of ultrasonic velocity (u), density (Ï) and viscosity (η). Deviation in isentropic compressibility (ÎβS) and viscosity (Îη) as well as excess free energy of activation for viscous flow (ÎGâE) were plotted against the mole fraction of DMSO over the entire composition range. The values of ÎβS have been found to be negative whereas the values of ÎGâE and Îη were positive for both the mixtures over the entire composition range. The strength and the nature of interaction between the molecules of DMSO with propanoic acid and n-butyric acid have been discussed.
