Unlocking the Activity of Molecular Assemblies for CO2 Electroreduction in Zero-Gap Electrolysers via Catalyst Ink Engineering.

In recent years, CO2 electrolysis, particularly the electrochemical reduction of CO2 to CO in zero-gap systems, has gained significant attention. While Ag-coated gas diffusion electrodes are commonly used in state-of-the-art systems, heterogenized molecular catalysts like bis-coordinated homoleptic silver(I) N,N-bis(arylimino)-acenaphthene (Ag-BIAN) complexes are emerging as a promising alternative due to their tunability and high mass activity. In this study, the influence of ink composition on the performance of Ag-BIAN-based GDEs in zero-gap electrolyzers (ZGEs) are systematically explored at 60°C and 600mA cm⁻2. Sedimentation analyses across various solvents informed the selection of optimal solvent-catalyst and solvent-carbon additive combinations, streamlining the GDE optimization process and reducing associated costs and time. These results demonstrate that solvent choice and dilution state of the ink are critical factors impacting CO2 reduction, achieving faradaic efficiencies for CO production (FECO) up to 67% at 600mA cm⁻2 with catalyst loadings as low as 0.2mg cm⁻2. These findings lay the groundwork for advancing from homogeneous H-type cells to industrial ZGE systems through tailored ink engineering.

Eco-Friendly Analytical Approach for Sensitive Spectrofluorimetric Determination of the Flavonoid Chrysin in Capsules and Human Plasma.

Chrysin is a plant flavonoid that has different therapeutic effects as anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, anti-oxidant, and immune booster. Spectrofluorimetry has received a lot of interest lately because of itsecological greenness and analytical performance. This approach employed the native fluorescence of chrysin at 339nm following excitation at 231nm in distilled water. Modern advances in analytical chemistry have been used to lessen occupational and environmental concerns by employing distilled water as a dilution solvent throughmethod development and application. The approach was found to be excellent green supported byeco-scale score of 97and 0.94AGREErating, in addition to an overall whiteness score of 88.80. The design aimed to analyze chrysin in raw materials, Chrysin® capsules and human plasma. The method was linear over0.5-7.0ngmL⁻1 chrysin, with LOD of 0.06ngmL⁻1 and LOQ of 0.20ngmL⁻1. The offered methodwas effectively applied for determination of chrysin inthe commercial capsules Chrysin® and spiked human plasma samples with average recoveries of 99.76%and 99.98%, respectively for capsules andspiked human plasma. Up to date, no spectrofluorimetric method has been described for chrysin analysis, then, this presented an opportunity to develop a sensitive, quick, reliable, environmentally friendly, and valid fluorescence-based method.

Sustainable and technically smart spectrophotometric determination of PAXLOVID: a comprehensive ecological and analytical performance rating

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) authorized the administration of ritonavir (RIT)-boosted nirmatrelvir (NMV) on May 25, 2023, for the treatment of mild to moderate COVID-19 in patients who are at high risk of developing severe COVID-19. In accordance with sustainability and environmental friendliness, simple, eco-friendly, and sustainable spectrophotometric methods were established for concurrently estimating RIT and NMV in newly launched copackaged pills. The suggested solutions for resolving the spectral overlap between RIT and NMV involve the following mathematical methods: the first derivative method (1D), second derivative method (2D), and dual-wavelength zero-order method (DWZ). When ethanol was used as a green dilution solvent, the linearity range was adjusted (10–250 µg/mL) for both drugs. The procedures resulted in a high correlation coefficient (not less than 0.9996) and satisfactory levels of detection and quantification. Additionally, method validation was performed in accordance with International Council for Harmonization norms. Moreover, a detailed ecological and sustainability evaluation protocol was established to confirm the greenness and whiteness of the methods. Finally, the proposed method, along with previously reported methods for analysing NMV and RIT, were reviewed analytically and ecologically.

Investigating aqueous micellar systems enhancement tools for a sensitive spectrofluorimetric determination of anti-TB: Rifampicin.

Rifampicin is a frontline antibiotic in the management of tuberculosis. Since no spectrofluorimetric methods are reported for this drug, this approach was challenged to craft a sensitive, reliable, valid, fast, and green methodology. In recent years, fluorescence spectroscopy has received a lot of interest. Its benefits include ecological greenness and analytical performance. The pharmaceutical industries greatly like this approach because of its low energy and decreased solvent usage, which make it both economical and environmentally friendly. This methodology was based on utilizing the enhanced native fluorescence of the rifampicin at 341 nm after excitation at 241 nm in a beta-cyclodextrin micellar system. Modern developments in analytical chemistry have been applied to reduce risks to the workplace and environment by using distilled water as a dilution solvent for method application and optimization. The method was found excellent green with 97 eco-scale and 0.86 AGREE scores besides an 89.6 overall whiteness score. The range of linearity for rifampicin raw material was 0.2-1.5μg·mL-1, and the average recoveries for raw material and spiked plasma were 100.15% and 99.64%, respectively. The suggested technique worked well for the commercial oral syrup of Rimactane® and did not conflict with any common additives.

A comprehensive study on solvent effect and establishment of n-hexane solvent system based normal-phase liquid chromatography × reversed-phase liquid chromatography for isolation of natural products

Reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC) represents an effective separation method, and is widely employed as the second dimension in most 2D-LC systems. Nevertheless, the solvent effect of the eluent from the first dimension on RPLC presents a challenge to the online coupling of RPLC with other separation modes, particularly normal phase liquid chromatography (NPLC). To address this issue, a comprehensive understanding of the solvent effect is essential. Following a comprehensive investigation into the influence of diverse solvents on RPLC separations, it was observed that alkane solvents, such as n-hexane, exhibited a pronounced tendency to be retained during RPLC separations. Such solvents do not affect the analysis of samples with weaker retention abilities than themselves, even when a large injection volume is used. The solvent effect was thus reduced by employing n-hexane-based solvent dilution. Leveraging the markedly enhanced solvent tolerance and extensive injection volume in RPLC, a versatile integration of the NPLC and RPLC was devised, necessitating merely a purge pump and a 10 port 2 position valve in conjunction with two sample loops. The novel 2D-LC system was then deployed for the analysis of propolis, a naturally occurring complex sample, and demonstrated remarkable separation efficiency.

Inhibition of Botrytis cinerea infection on tomato leaves by submicronization of penthiopyrad particles

If the spray concentration of the pesticide remains constant, submicronization of the active ingredients significantly increase the particle number concentration, thereby substantially enhancing the probability of contact with plant pathogens and is anticipated to result in reduced pesticide usage. In this study, we investigated the effect of submicronization of pesticide active ingredients on the inhibitory effect against plant pathogens. Three types of monodispersed penthiopyrad (pesticide) particles with different median diameters and minimal overlap in the particle size distribution were successfully prepared using a poor solvent dilution method. Using these penthiopyrad particles, we conducted experiments on infection of tomatoes (model plants) with Botrytis cinerea (plant pathogen). The results showed that the submicronization of pesticide particles enhanced the inhibitory effects of the sprayed pesticide on the plant pathogen, while also decreasing the required amount of pesticide sprayed to the plants. Furthermore, confocal microscopy images showed that smaller particles are taken up by B. cinerea hyphae better than larger particles. Additionally, the bacterial flora on the leaf surface was not affected by submicronized pesticide particles larger than 100 nm. These findings imply that submicronization of pesticide active ingredients increases the probability of reaching targeted plant pathogens on the leaf surface, ultimately resulting in an increase in their uptake by the plant pathogens (i.e., significantly improved delivery of pesticides).

N-demethylsinomenine metabolite and its prototype sinomenine activate mast cells via MRGPRX2 and aggravate anaphylaxis.

Sinomenine hydrochloride (SH) is commonly used in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis. It activates mast cells and induces anaphylaxis in the clinical setting. Adverse drug reactions can be caused by activation of MAS-associated G protein-coupled receptor X2 (MRGPRX2) on mast cells. Because the ligand binding site of MRGPRX2 is easily contacted in dilute solvents, it can be activated by many opioid drug structures. N-Demethylsinomenine (M-3) has a similar chemical structure to that of the opioid scaffold and is a major metabolite of SH. We sought to clarify whether M-3 induces anaphylaxis synergistically with its prototype in a mouse model. Molecular docking computer simulations suggested a similar binding effect between M-3 and SH. M-3 was chemically synthesized and analyzed by surface plasmon resonance to reveal its affinity for MRGPRX2. Temperature monitoring, in vivo hindlimb swelling and exudation test, and in vitro mast cell degranulation test were used to explore the mechanism of MRGPrx2 mediated allergic reaction triggered by M-3. Reduced M-3-induced inflammation was evident in MrgprB2 (the ortholog of MRGPRX2) conditional (Cpa3-Cre/MrgprB2flox) knockout (MrgprB2-CKO) mice. Additionally, LAD2 human mast cells with MRGPRX2 knockdown showed reduced degranulation. M-3 activated LAD2 cells synergistically with SH as regulated by GRK2 signaling and IP3R/PLC/PKC/P38 molecular signaling pathways. The results indicate that the M-3 metabolite can activate mast cells synergistically with its prototype SH via MRGPRX2 and aggravate anaphylaxis. These findings provide important insights into drug safety.

Surface-Functionalized Nano-Montmorillonite and Its Application as Crude Oil Flow Improver

In view of the problem of poor flowability in the production and transportation of high-wax crude oil and high-viscosity crude oil, crude oil flow improvers are commonly used to reduce their viscosity and pour point. Although polymer-based crude oil flow improvers are highly effective in improving crude oil flowability, there are still problems such as high cost and the need for a large amount of solvent dilution when used. In this work, highly dispersed organic modified nano-montmorillonite was prepared by using Na-based montmorillonite and quaternary ammonium salts, and the influencing factors on the viscosity of the crude oil were investigated. The most effective modified nano-montmorillonite (B@MMT) can reduce the viscosity by 96.7% (21 °C) and depress the pour point by 15 °C. Furthermore, it has shown a high improvement in flowability in the other four different sources of crude oil, with viscosity reduction rates of 52.2, 93.4, 79.1 and 67.4%, respectively. B@MMT was characterized by FTIR, SEM, zeta potential and contact angle. Based on DSC and wax crystal structure analysis, the mechanism of the influence of B@MMT on crude oil viscosity and pour point was explored. Finally, the cost of B@MMT was estimated, and the result shows that, compared with the crude oil flow improver in use, B@MMT has considerable commercial competitive advantages.

In vivo anthelmintic effect of Artemisia annua L. on oxyurid nematodes of laboratory mice

Oxyurids are common intestinal parasites of mammals, and they are the cause of recurrent helminthic infections, especially in children Hence natural herbal compounds are necessary for a repeatable cure. This study aimed to investigate the antinematodal effect of Artemisia annua L. n-hexane extract on oxyurids in vivo. In this study, A. annua L. n-hexane extract was applied to mice naturally infected with Syphacia obvelata and Aspiculuris tetraptera species orally at 300, 600, and 1200 mg/kg doses for seven days and the change occurring in the number of oxyurid eggs was investigated by the fecal flotation method. The nematodes in the necropsy were compared on the 8th day in all groups in terms of number, gender, and species. Albendazole (ABZ) was applied at a 5 mg/kg dose for three days as positive drug control, and corn oil was used as solvent control. The arithmetic mean of oxyurid eggs counted in fecal flotation 43.51% decrease in the drug control ABZ group and showed a 21.12% increase in the A. annua 1200 mg/kg group on the last day of application. When compared with the corn oil group, a 34.08%, 34.76% and 36.91% decrease in ABZ 5 mg/kg, A. annua 300 mg/kg and A. annua 1200 mg/kg group respectively were found in their necropsies in terms of nematode number. Non-polar compounds of A. annua L., very low concentration of ABZ and as a dilution solvent corn oil are probably responsible for this result.

Investigation of the temperature dependence of the dielectric relaxation of chlorobenzene, bromobenzene and iodobenzene

This paper deals with the investigation results of temperature dependence of complex permittivity’sε∗ = έ − iε˝ of chloro, bromo and iodo- benzene at wavelength 11,50 cm and 12,80 cm within the temperature range 20 ÷ -80˚. It is established that dielectric properties of given liquids are characteristic of one relaxation time. The dielectric spectra were studied taking into account other frequencies given in the literature. In all investigated liquids, a jump appears in the real and imaginary parts of the complex permittivity at the point of the phase transition. The temperature dependence of the dielectric relaxation time of molecules in the liquid state has been determined. It was found that with an increase in the amount of the halogen substituent, an increase in the relaxation time occurs. Macroscopic and molecular relaxation times were calculated from the experimental values. The thermodynamic quantities characterizing the process of dielectric relaxation are calculated. The activation enthalpy of dielectric relaxation processes is compared. The studies were carried out using the dielectric spectroscopy method. This method allows a more detailed study of the dielectric properties of the objects of study due to the large equilibrium (“static”) dielectric constant of the object. It has been determined that the height of the potential barrier separating the two equilibrium positions of a polar molecule is greatest in the state of a pure polar liquid and decreases with dilution in a non-polar solvent.

A Unique Temperature-Induced Reverse Supramolecular Chirality-Assisted Gel-to-Gel Transition.

Supramolecular hydrogels typically undergo a gel-to-sol transition with heat, as intermolecular interactions within the gel weaken. Although gel-to-gel transitions during heating are rare, they may occur due to minor rearrangements caused by thermal forces in the supramolecular self-assembled structure. Here, an unprecedented temperature-induced gel-to-gel transition assisted by supramolecular chiral inversion in a hydrogel system is presented. The transition results from a left-handed M-type helix to a right-handed P-type helix, attributed to the π-system-conjugated amino acid, l-Tyrosine (Fm- l-Tyr). Upon solvent dilution, Fm-l-Tyr induces translucent hydrogel formed by entangled fibers with a kinetically stable left-handed M-type supramolecular helix. At 70 °C, hydrogel transforms into an opaque gel with a reverse supramolecular chirality yielding a thermodynamically stable right-handed P-type helix. Supramolecular chiral inversion is substantiated by two chiroptical methods. This unique gel-to-gel transition, accompanied by chiral inversion, is anticipated to attract attention, especially for applications sensitive to chirality.

Simple and Practical Method for the Quantitative High-Sensitivity Analysis of N-Nitroso Duloxetine in Duloxetine Drug Products Utilizing LC-MS/MS.

The high-sensitivity analytical method for the determination of N-nitroso duloxetine (NDXT), which can be carcinogenic and harmful in duloxetine drug products, was successfully developed utilizing liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Tandem mass spectrometric detection at positive electrospray ionization in multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode was then employed for the determination of NDXT. The quantitative range for NDXT was found in 0.075-3.75 ng/mL in terms of concentration in the dilution solvent for duloxetine active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) and capsules and 0.075-1.875 ng/mL for duloxetine tablets, and the recovery rates were in the range of 82.5-91.6% for the API, 91.0-113.4% for capsules, and 70.6-109.1% for tablets, respectively. The repeatability was 6.9% with a %RSD of n = 9 for the API, 10.9% with a %RSD of n = 9 for capsules, and 21.6% with a %RSD of n = 9 for tablets, respectively. For reproducibility, the %RSD of the n = 6 measurements between the two sites was 3.5%. The calibration curve of NDXT in the concentration range of 0.075-3.75 ng/mL was carried out, and the correlation coefficient (R) was found to be 1.000. The sample solution was stable for 7 days. The applicability of the determination of the content of NDXT in a variety of duloxetine drug products was demonstrated. This manuscript seeks to aid the risk assessment process of NDXT in duloxetine drug products through providing a fast and reliable quantitative LC-MS/MS analytical method.

A rapid method for the determination of stable hydrogen isotope ratios of acetic acid in vinegar.

Vinegar is an everyday condiment made from fermented grains or fruits. It contains acetic acid which is the main organic material produced by fermentation. Vinegar suffers from the authenticity problem of exogenous adulteration due to the indistinguishability of low-cost chemical sources of synthetic acetic acid from acetic acid produced by fermentation. It is necessary to establish a simple and rapid measurement technique. Determination was according to the total acid content of vinegar diluted with acetone to a certain concentration. Online separation and determination of acetic acid δD in vinegar were carried out using gas chromatography-pyrolysis-isotope ratio mass spectrometry. An HP-Plot/U column was selected for online separation of acetic acid and water with molecular sieve characteristics. At the same time, combined with the instrument blowback function to remove water. Dilute solvent acetone was treated with a molecular sieve to remove trace water. The reproducibility of this method is less than 3‰. The long-term stability is within a reasonable error range. The accuracy correlation coefficient is greater than 0.99. The δD values of acetic acid in vinegar (-264.5 ± 20.3‰) and from chemical sources (-30.5 ± 90.8‰) were obtained. A rapid method was developed for identification of different sources of acetic acid. These different sources of acetic acid exhibited significant hydrogen isotope distribution characteristics. Additionally, it was observed that the carboxyl hydrogen of acetic acid exhibited facile exchange with water. In future investigations, we aim to mitigate this interference.

Novel method for chlorine determination in biofuel lipid feedstock by coupling a total sample introduction system (hTISIS) to an inductively coupled plasma tandem mass spectrometry (ICP-MS/MS)

BackgroundChlorine concentrations above 1 mg kg−1 in lipid feedstocks for biofuel production can generate corrosion issues in the different refining units as well as catalyst deactivation by clogging or fouling. To reach accurate analyses by inductively coupled plasma (ICP) techniques at low concentration levels, dilution in organic solvents rises as a simpler and more straightforward sample preparation methodology than conventional sample decomposition procedures (e.g., microwave-assisted acid digestion). However, matrix effects and the impact of the Cl chemical form on the signal must be overcome to obtain accurate results. ResultsIn this work, the high temperature torch integrated sample introduction system (hTISIS) operated at 350 °C is coupled to an inductively coupled plasma tandem mass spectrometry (ICP-MS/MS) for the determination of Cl in lipid biofuel feedstock samples diluted in xylene and these results are compared with those reported by a conventional sample introduction system. Under optimal conditions of the hTISIS-ICP-MS/MS configuration, matrix effects are efficiently overcome (recovery values ranged from 101 to 104%) as well as the effect of the Cl chemical form on the signal for 6 organochloride compounds. Thus, an external calibration approach can be set to carry out the quantification of this element in real samples. The method is successfully validated, obtaining a good agreement in the Cl concentration reported in a standard reference material (SRM NIST 1634c) and also by comparing the concentration results obtained by external calibration and standard addition approaches in two biofuel feedstock samples. Significance and noveltyThe hTISIS coupled to an ICP-MS/MS system is used for the first time to overcome not only matrix effects but also the impact of the Cl chemical form in biofuel feedstock samples. This novel method, with a limit of quantification (LOQ) of 7.1 μg kg−1, give access to an accurate Cl determination in all kind of lipid feedstocks for clean fuel production.

Theoretical and practical guidelines for solvent dilution between the two dimensions in online comprehensive two-dimensional liquid chromatography

Online comprehensive two-dimensional liquid chromatography (online LC x LC) has become increasingly popular. Among the different chromatographic modes that can be combined, hydrophilic interaction chromatography (HILIC) and reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC) are particularly interesting because they offer a high degree of orthogonality. However, this combination remains complex due to the incompatibility of the solvents in the two dimensions. To avoid this problem, it is possible to dilute the first dimension (1D) effluent with (zdilution -1) volumes of a weaker solvent added to one volume of 1D-effluent, where zdilution represents the extent to which the fraction volume has been multiplied. This can be done using either active solvent modulation technology or an additional pump, prior to the second dimension analysis.The objective of this study was to develop theoretical models to predict whether or not dilution can be effective, and, if so, what is the minimum zdilution value required. This approach is based on the calculation of the ratio (called xdilution) between the peak standard deviation due to the injection process and the peak standard deviation in the absence of extra-column dispersion. xdilution was calculated from theoretical relationships and plotted as a function of zdilution, to predict the value required to obtain good peak shapes for the compound of interest. The maximum xdilution value was found to be of the order of 1 for chromatographically acceptable peak shapes. The proposed theoretical approach was experimentally validated on a number of representative small molecules and peptides. Agreement between experimental results and theoretical models was very high, especially for small molecules. Finally, it is shown that this approach helps to predict the most appropriate set of conditions in HILIC x RPLC, depending on the compounds to be separated.

Dielectric relaxation in solutions chlorobenzene–benzene and chlorobenzene–hexane

This paper presents the results of a study of the dielectric constant of solutions of a polar liquid in a nonpolar solvent: chlorobenzene–benzene, chlorobenzene–hexane. The measurements were carried out at a wavelength [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]cm in the temperature range from [Formula: see text]C to [Formula: see text]C. The studies were carried out using the dielectric spectroscopy method. This method allows a more detailed study of the dielectric properties of the objects of study due to the large equilibrium (“static”) dielectric constant of the object. The temperature dependence of the dielectric relaxation time of molecules in the liquid and solid states of the studied solutions is determined. It has been established that with increasing concentration (0.300, 0.562, 0.794, 1.000 for a chlorobenzene–hexane solution and 0.179, 0.368, 0.567, 0.778, 1.000 for a chlorobenzene–benzene solution) of the halogen substituent, the relaxation time increases. The measurement results of dielectric constant [Formula: see text] and absorption coefficient [Formula: see text] obtained for concentrated solutions chlorobenzene–benzene, chlorobenzene–n–hexane at wavelengths [Formula: see text], 80 and [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]cm at temperature [Formula: see text]C are given in the paper. The static dielectric constant is obtained at a frequency of 1[Formula: see text]MHz. The obtained experimental values [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] of investigated systems in ([Formula: see text], [Formula: see text]) plane locate on the semi-circle the center of which is on [Formula: see text] axis. In this case, the high-frequency limit value of [Formula: see text] dielectric coefficient exceeds the corresponding n2 refraction index square. The macroscopic and molecular relaxation times are calculated on the base of experimental data. The thermodynamic quantities characterizing the process of dielectric relaxation are calculated for solutions of chlorobenzene–benzene, chlorobenzene–hexane. It has been determined that the height of the potential barrier separating the two equilibrium positions of a polar molecule is greatest in the state of a pure polar liquid and decreases with dilution in a nonpolar solvent.

Disassembly of spherical structures into nanohelices by good solvent dilution

Supramolecular self-assembly of low molecular weight molecules into various organic nanostructures has attracted considerable research interest. However, preparing organic nanostructures through a top-down method, such as the disassembly of one large structure into many smaller nanoscale nanostructures, still remains a big challenge. Here, we make use of anti-solvent method to regulate the hierarchical self-assembly of an achiral C3-symmetric molecule in THF/water to prepare various nanostructures, including spherical structures, nanofibers, nanoribbons and nanotwists. Interestingly, the spherical structures could disassemble into nanohelices through good solvent dilution, providing a nanoscale top-down method to prepare organic nanostructures.

Simultaneous determination of triazole fungicides in animal-origin food by ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry

A method for the simultaneous determination of 21 triazole fungicides in animal-origin foods was established by using UPLC–MS/MS. The dilution solvent, extraction solvent, and QuEChERS purification adsorbent composition, were optimized. The response value of the target compound was the highest and the chromatographic peak shape was optimal under the following conditions: water-acetonitrile as the mobile phase, acetonitrile to extract the target compound, C18 (100 mg) as the adsorbent, and water-acetonitrile as the diluent. Our method was validated under electrospray ionization (ESI) + conditions with six animal-origin foods. The 21 triazole fungicides showed good linear relationships (0.1–20 μg∙L−1, R2 > 0.99). The limits of detection and quantitation ranged from 0.1 to 0.3 μg∙kg−1 and 0.3 to 0.9 μg∙kg−1, respectively. The average recoveries ranged from 72.0% to 114.8% with RSDs < 9.9%. Therefore, our method was suitable for the determination of pesticide residues in commercially available animal-origin samples.

Determination of thermodynamic properties and phase transition temperatures of phenylbenzoate-based calamitic liquid crystals by inverse gas chromatography method

ABSTRACT In this study, Phenylbenzoate-based calamitic liquid crystals (LCs) were synthesized and characterized, and then the thermodynamic properties and phase transition temperatures were investigated by inverse gas chromatography (IGC) at infinite dilution. The phase transition temperatures of the LCs were determined in the range of 40–170°C by the IGC method. Finally, in the thermodynamic equilibrium region (the range of 160–200°C), Flory-Huggins theory and the equation of state theory with the LC-solvent interaction parameters, the effective exchange energy parameters, the weight fraction activity coefficient, and also the partial molar heat of mixing at infinite dilution of solvent, the molar heat of vaporization of solvent, and the partial molar heat of sorption of solvent were calculated.
