Abstract

The density and surface tension of the pure ionic liquid n-butylpyridinium nitrate ([BuPy]NO 3) were determined at temperature range from T = (293.15 to 338.15) K. The coefficient of thermal expansion, molecular volume and lattice energy of [BuPy]NO 3 were calculated from the experimental values of density. The surface entropy and enthalpy of [BuPy]NO 3 were investigated. The IL studied show much lower surface enthalpy and lattice energy in comparison with fused salts. The densities and surface tensions of binary mixtures of [BuPy]NO 3 with water have been measured within the whole composition range at T = 298.15 K and atmospheric pressure. Excess molar volumes V E and surface tension deviations δγ were then deduced from the experimental results as well as partial molar volumes and excess partial molar volumes. Excess molar volumes have a negative deviation from ideal behavior and the surface tension deviations are negative over the whole compositions range. V E and δγ were correlated with suitable equation respectively.
