Abstract
Solubility measurements of several nonpolar gases (He, Ne, Ar, Kr, Xe, H2, D2, N2, CH4, C2H4, C2H6, CF4, and SF6) in tetrahydropyran at the temperature range 0 to 30°C and 101.33 kPa partial pressure of gas are reported. Thermodynamic functions for the solution process (Gibbs energy, enthalpy, and entropies) at 25°C are evaluated from the experimental values of the solubility of gases as mole fraction and their variation with the temperature. Lennard-Jones 6–12 pair potential parameters for tetrahydropyran are estimated by using the scale particle theory (SPT); and experimental solubilities are compared with the calculated values using this model. Experimental solubilities of gases in tetrahydropyran and intermolecular potential parameters are compared with those obtained for the same gases in other cycloethers.
