P-Vm-x properties of water-dimethylformamide mixtures at 278.15 K and pressures of up to 100 MPa

Abstract

The compressibility coefficients k = (v0 - v)/v0 of water-dimethylformamide (DMF) binary mixtures in the entire composition range at 278.15 K and pressures of up to 100 MPa were measured with a constant-volume piesometer. From the measured densities at atmospheric pressure and the coefficients k, the following quantities were calculated: specific and molar volumes of water-DMF mixtures at the examined parameters of state, excess molar volumes, partial molar volumes of the components, and variation with external pressure of the excess Gibbs energy of the water-DMF system. At all the pressures, the dependence k = f(x) (where x is the mole fraction of DMF in the mixture) passes through a minimum at x ∼0.2. The composition dependence of the specific volume of water-DMF mixtures also shows extrema, and its shape depends on the pressure. The partial molar volume of water at infinite dilution in DMF slightly depends on pressure.
