Abstract

The surface tensions of 42 binary cryogenic mixtures at low temperature are correlated using the Shereshefsky model and excellent results are obtained. The average percent deviation is about ∼ 1.08%. The Gibbs energy change in the surface region is calculated and is used to obtain the excess number of molecular layers in the surface region. Furthermore, the model is used to derive an equation for the standard Gibbs energy of adsorption. The experimental standard Gibbs energy of adsorption is obtained from surface tension data and compared with calculated data. The agreement between experimental and calculated data is found to be very good. The magnitude of the Gibbs energy change in the surface region and the standard Gibbs energy of adsorption are discussed in terms of nature and type of intermolecular interactions in binary mixtures.
