SOLUBILITIES OF CARBON DIOXIDE IN MIXTURES OF n-DECANE-n-HEXADECANE AND n-HEPTANE-TOLUENE

Solubilities of CO_2 in binary mixtures of n-decane-n-hexadecane and n-heptane-toluenewere measured in a glass apparatus by a synthetic method.Henry's constants at several temperaturesand solvent compositions were reported.While the Henry's constants of CO_2 in mixtures of decaneand hexadecane can be satisfactorily predicted by a simple linear interpolation,prediction of Henry'sconstants for CO_2 in mixtures of heptane and toluene requires excess Gibbs energy of the solvent mix-tures.The standard thermodynamic functions of solution(ΔH~0,ΔG~0,and ΔS~0)were reported.
