The thermodynamic properties of liquid binary mixtures of n-alkanes: n-decane + n-hexadecane

Data on sound velocity are used for determining the density, the isobaric expansion coefficient, the isobaric and isochoric heat capacity, and the isothermal compressibility of liquid binary mixture of n-decane + n-hexadecane of three compositions in the temperature range of 298–433 K and pressure range of 0.1–100 MPa. The coefficients of Tait equation are calculated in the above-identified range of parameters. The calculation results are compared with experimental data on density. The divergence does not exceed 0.2% for the most reliable data.
