Abstract

The ultrasonic velocity, density and viscosity at 303 K have been measured in the binary systems of 1,4-dioxane and acetone with water. From the experimental data, various acoustical parameters such as adiabatic compressibility (β), intermolecular free length (Lf), free volume (Vf), internal pressure (πi), Rao’s constant (R), Wada’s constant (W) and specific acoustical impedance (Z) were calculated. The results are interpreted in terms of molecular interaction between the components of the mixtures.
