Excess molar enthalpies and excess molar volumes of dimethyl carbonate plus seven alkyl acetates at 298.15 K

Excess molar enthalpies and excess molar volumes of dimethyl carbonate + seven alkyl acetates have been determined at 298.15 K and at atmospheric pressure using a flow microcalorimeter and a digital density meter. Values of excess enthalpies and excess volumes increase as the chain length of the acetate molecule is increased. In contrast, the mixtures containing dimethyl carbonate + vinyl acetate show the lowest values. The experimental results have been correlated using the Redlich-Kister equation and have been qualitatively discussed.
