The excess molar volumes of twenty two binary mixtures containing various groups of organic compounds: alcohols (ethanol, 1-propanol, 1,2-propanediol, 1,3-propanediol and glycerol), ketone (acetone), ester (butyl lactate), lactam (N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone), PEGs (PEG 200, PEG 400) and aromatics (benzene, toluene and pyridine) were predicted from the refractive index data, using three types of equations coupled with several mixing rules for refractive index calculations: the Lorentz-Lorenz, Dale-Gladstone, Eykman, Arago-Biot, Newton, and Oster. The obtained results were analysed in terms of the applied equation and mixing rule and the nature of interactions between the mixtures? components.

The excess volumes of twenty binary mixtures of four aromatic hydrocarbons (benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and p-xylene) and five linear alkanols (methanol, ethanol, 1-propanol, 1-butanol, and 1-pentanol) at 20 °C are reported. The excess volume of systems with the same alkanol increases with increasing size and number of substituents on the benzene ring. For systems with the same aromatic hydrocarbon it increases with the length of the alkanols. The dependence of ∆V/φ1ϑ2 values on composition is noticeably asymmetric. Systems with benzene as one of the component show larger ∆V/φ1ϑ2 values than other systems and systems with methanol show different compositional dependence patterns.

Densities and viscosities have been determined for binary mixtures of 1-iodobutane with benzene, toluene, o-xylene, m-xylene, p-xylene, and mesitylene at 303.15, 308.15, and 313.15 K for the entire composition range at atmospheric pressure. The excess molar volumes, , deviations in viscosity, Δη, and excess Gibbs’ free energy of activation flow, Δ have been calculated from the experimental values. The experimental data were fitted to Redlich-Kister polynomial equation. The variations of these parameters with composition of the mixtures and temperature have been discussed in terms of molecular interactions occurring in these mixtures. Further, the viscosities of these binary mixtures were calculated theoretically from their corresponding pure component data by using empirical relations like Bingham, Arrhenius and Eyring, Kendall and Munroe, Hind, Katti and Chaudhari, Grunberg and Nissan, and Tamura and Kurata. Comparison of various interaction parameters has been expressed to explain the intermolecular interactions between iodobutane and selected hydrocarbons.
