Abstract
The solubilities of benzoic acid and phthalic acid in acetic acid + water solvent mixtures are determined by a static method. The experimental temperature ranges from (298.3 to 367.9) K, and the mass fraction of acetic acid in the solvent mixtures ranges from 0.8 to 1.0. The experimental results show that, within the temperature range of the measurements, the solubility of benzoic acid and phthalic acid in all the mixtures shows an increasing trend as the temperature increases. The solubility of benzoic acid decreases with increasing mass fraction of water. For the solubility of phthalic acid in acetic acid + water within the solvent composition range of the measurements, below 325.2 K, the higher the mass fraction of water, the less the solubility. However, above 325.2 K the higher the mass fraction of water, the greater the solubility. A simple explanation was given for this “maximum-solubility effect”. The experimental data was correlated by the Non-Random Two Liquids (NRTL) activity coefficient model,...
