Abstract

ABSTRACTThe relative viscosities and activation parameters of L-ascorbic acid have been determined in water and binary aqueous mixtures of D-glucose and D-fructose at different temperatures. A and B-coefficients of Jones–Dole equation are determined using density and viscosity data. Gibbs energy of activation of viscous flow per mole of solvent as well as per mole of solute along with activation enthalpy and entropy is also determined using Feakin’s transition-state theory. The obtained results are explained in terms of intermolecular interactions and in this study L-ascorbic acid has been found as structure breaker in binary aqueous mixtures of D-glucose and D-fructose.
