Transport Properties of Nonelectrolyte Liquid Mixtures. XI. Mutual Diffusion Coefficients for Toluene+n-Hexane and Toluene+Acetonitrile at Temperatures from 273 to 348 K and at Pressures up to 25 MPa

Mutual diffusion coefficients, D12 , have been measured at pressures up to 25 MPa using the chromatographic peak broadening technique (Taylor disper- sion method) for x toluene+(1&x) n-hexane in the temperature range 298 to 348 K and for x toluene+(1&x) acetonitrile in the temperature range 273 to 348 K. The estimated uncertainty is \40. Both systems show negative devia- tions from straight-line behavior. The fractional decrease in D12 is about 0.80 per MPa. Hard-sphere theory is applied under limiting conditions where one of the components is present in a trace amount. It is shown that the diffusion coefficients can be estimated by the Dullien method from a knowledge of the viscosity and density under the same conditions.
