Abstract: Densities of pure liquids and binary mixtures of diethyl ether (DEE) with 2-alkoxyethanols (2- methoxyethanol, 2-ethoxyethanol and 2-butoxyethanol) have been determined over the entire range of solvent compositions at (293.15, 298.15 and 303.15) K. Excess molar volumes (VM E ) have been calculated from the density data and were fitted into the Redlich-Kister type polynomial equation to obtain the fitting parameters Ai. The values of excess molar volumes, vm E were negative in regions of low diethyl ether (DEE) composition and small positive values were observed in regions of high diethyl ether (DEE) compositions in all the systems studied. VM E values were also found to decrease with increase in temperature and increase in chain length of the 2-alkoxyethanols. The above trends were attributed to the combined effects of disruption and formation of hydrogen bonds between like molecules of 2- alkoxyethanols and unlike molecules of diethyl ether (DEE), respectively.
Keywords: density, excess molar volumes, hydrogen bonding, intermolecular interactions
