Notes:
The paper presents a procedure for calculating liquid mixture enthalpies, whereby a liquid heat of mixing is added to the molal average of the pure liquid enthalpies. The heat of mixing for the mixture is calculated from the heats of mixing of the binary systems at infinite dilution, which in turn are determined with a proposed molecular model for liquid mixing, and a postulate of acceptance. The two cases where the solute in the binary system is more volatile and less volatile than the solvent are treated separately. The case is also considered where a component of the liquid mixture is above its critical temperature; a pure liquid enthalpy is defined and justified for such pseudo liquids, and heats of mixing are then calculated as for actual liquids. Results are compared for four nonpolar binary systems, three with experimental data, and one with data calculated by other means. Data for a number of gases dissolved in water are also considered. The agreement in all cases is excellent.
