Abstract

A group contribution method for the prediction of the molar volume at the normal boiling point has been developed. The method can be used for organic and inorganic compounds. It cannot be used for elements and diatomic molecules. Group contributions are shown for a wide variety of hydrocarbons, organic halogen compounds, organic oxygen compounds, organic nitrogen compounds, organic sulfur compounds, organic boron compounds, organic silicon compounds, miscellaneous organics, and many inorganic compounds. Contrary to the corresponding states methods for the prediction of molar volumes, knowledge of critical properties, acentric factors, and reference volumes is not needed.
