Excess volumes of an alcohol + 1,2-dichloroethane

Abstract
Excess volumes for binary mixtures of 1,2-dichloroethane with n-propanol, n-butanol, n-pentanol, n-hexanol, n-heptanol, and n-octanol have been determined at 303.15 K. VE is positive over the whole range of composition in all the mixtures. However, it is noticed that the positive values of VE of mixtures of 1,2-dichloroethane with n-hexanol, n-heptanol, and n-octanol differ from those for the mixtures of 1,2-dichloroethane with corresponding alkanes. The difference has been explained in terms of the break up of hydrogen bonds, interstitial accommodation of 1,2-dichloroethane in alcohol aggregates, and possible hydrogen bond interaction of the type Cl … H—O between unlike molecules.
