Excess enthalpies of ten binary mixtures of each of methyl methylthiomethyl sulfoxide (MMTSO) and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) with one of the cycloethers (oxane, 1,3- and 1,4-dioxanes, oxolane and 1,3-dioxolane) have been determined at 298.15 K. All the mixtures show positive excess enthalpies over the whole composition range. Excess enthalpies of the cycloether + MMTSO or DMSO decrease with increasing number of oxygen atoms in the cycloether molecules, except for oxolane + MMTSO. Excess enthalpies of MMTSO + cycloethers are smaller than those of DMSO + cycloethers for the same cycloether except for the 1,3-dioxolane mixtures.

Abstract  

The enthalpies, entropies and Gibbs energies of inclusion of dl-1,3-, 1,4- and meso-2,3-butanediols into α- and β-cyclodextrin cavities from ideal gas phase have been determined on the basis of newly obtained experimental data of the butanediols. The butanediol molecules are stabilised strongly in the cavities due to interactions with inner walls of the cavities. Entropies of the gaseous isomers are greatly decreased in the cavities. The largest decrease is obtained for the case of 2,3-BD. Discussions concerning the1,4-butanediol given in the preceding paper have been changed due to the adoption of new data on the butanediols.

Abstract  

The excess molar enthalpies of (1–x)water+x1,4-dioxane have been measured at four different temperatures. All the mixtures showed negative enthalpies in the range of low mole fraction but positive ones in the range of high mole fraction of 1,4-dioxane. Excess enthalpies were increased with increasing temperature except those of at 278.15 K. Partial molar enthalpies have maximum around x=0.13 and minimum around x=0.75. Three different behaviors for the concentration dependence of partial molar enthalpies were observed for all temperature. Theoretical calculations of molecular interactions of three characteristic concentrations were carried out using the molecular orbital method.

Abstract  

A rapid and simple radioactivity determination method has been developed for food and related environmental samples of a radioactivity level corresponding to 5 mrem/y, Japan AEC's guideline, by pretreating with a modified microwave dehydration apparatus followed by radiation counting. An equation to estimate the heating conditions by the apparatus has been derived, and results calculated by the equation are in good agreement with experimental data. It took less than 4.5 hours to dehydrate by the propossed method, and radiation counting could be started on the day of sampling and dehydration procedure. The lower limit of detection for each radionuclide by the proposed method, using a Ge(Li) detector of 20% relative efficiency, is lower than one half of the needed detection limit to determine and evaluate the 5 mrem/y level. Radionuclide levels in food samples such as vegetables and crustaceans were determined by the proposed method and it was found that they were below the lower dection limit of the proposed method except natural radionuclide40K and fallout-originated137Cs.

Abstract  

A rapid and precise method of determining radiocesium corresponding to 5 mrem/y, the Japan AEC's guideline, was proposed. The development and practical performance of cesium-selective resin and the determination method was described in this paper. The resin was prepared by the formation of ammonium molybdophosphate in the structure of Amberlite XAD-7 resin. It took only 3 hours to carry out all the procedures the authors proposed. This value represents 1/10∼1/2 of the time of conventional method. The concentration of137Cs and134Cs in sea water was determined to be 0.13∼0.16 pCi/1 and less than 7.1·10−2 pCi/1, respectively.

Abstract  

The enthalpies of dilution of aqueous solutions of methanol, ethanol, l-propanol, 2-propanol, 1-butanol, l-pentanol, 1-hexanol, cyclohexanol, 1,3-butanediol, 1,4-butanediol, 2,3-butanediol and poly-alcohol(cyclohexaamylose) have been determined at high dilution as a function of the mole fraction of alcohol at 298.15 K, by a rocking twin-microcalorimeter of the heat-conduction type. A smoothing equation of the enthalpies of dilution against the mole fractions of alcohols are given. The graphical comparison of experimental results with their smoothed values or literature ones, taking into account the dependence of the mole fractions, are also presented. It has been found for the aqueous solutions of shorter n-alcohols than hexanol that at very high dilution, exothermic values of molar enthalpies of dilution from a definite mole fraction of alcohols to infinite dilution with the change of mole fraction is proportional to carbon number of n-alcohols. The molar enthalpies of infinite dilution of aqueous butanediol isomers and 1-hexanol were very large. Molar enthalpies of infinite dilution of aqueous poly-alcohol (cyclohexaamylose) were endothermic.

Abstract  

Excess enthalpies of sixteen binary mixtures between one each of methyl methylthiomethyl sulfoxide (MMTSO) and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and one of ketone {CH3CO(CH2)nCH3, n=0 to 6 and CH3COC6H5} have been determined at 298.15 K. All the mixtures showed positive excess enthalpies over the whole range of mole fractions. Excess enthalpies of ketone+MMTSO or DMSO increased with increasing the number of methylene radicals in the methyl alkyl ketone molecules. Excess enthalpies of MMTSO+ketone are smaller than those of DMSO+ketone for the same ketone mixtures. The limiting excess partial molar enthalpies of the ketone, H 1 E,∞, in all the mixtures with MMTSO were smaller than those of DMSO. Linear relationships were obtained between limiting excess partial molar enthalpies and the number of methylene groups except 2-propanone.

Abstract  

Excess enthalpies of six binary mixtures of CH3 OD+CH3 OH, CH3 OD+CD3 OD, CD3 OD+CH3 OH, C2 D5 OD+C2 H5 OH, C2 D5 OD+C2 H5 OD, C2 H5 OD+C2 H5 OH have been determined over the whole range of mole fractions at 298.15 K in order to know the isotopic effect on hydrogen-bonding accurately, although there are many reports on the differences in the strength of hydrogen-bonding between OH and OD. All excess enthalpies measured are very small and endothermic. The mixtures of CH3 OD+ CH3 OH, and C2 D5 OD+C2 H5 OH showed the largest excess enthalpies among each methanol and ethanol mixtures. The difference of intermolecular interaction between OH and OD in methanol and ethanol was almost same value of (1.820.04) J mol-1 Excess enthalpies of 1,4-dimethylbenzene+1,3-dimethylbenzene and 1,4-dimethylbenzene+1,2-methylbenzene were measured by three different principle calorimeters at 298.15 K in order to know the precision of calorimetry for a small enthalpy change.

Abstract  

The molar excess enthalpies of 1,2- and 1,3-propanediamine+1,2- and 1,3-propanediol have been determined at 298.15 K by using a twin-microcalorimeter which requires each component liquid 1 to 1.5 cm3 for a series of runs over the whole range of mole fraction. All excess enthalpies are exothermic and large. An equilibrium constant K1 expressed in terms of mole fractions and standard enthalpy of formation of 1:1 complex have been evaluated by ideal mixtures of momomeric molecules and their associated complexes.

Abstract  

The enthalpies of transfer 2-propanol, 1,2-butanediol (BD) and 1-hexanol from aqueous to aqueous α-cyclodextrin (CD) solutions have been determined by microcalorimetry at various mole fractions at 298.15 K. To clarify stabilities of inclusion complexes in aqueous solutions, hydration Gibbs energies calculation of inclusion complex of CD-alcohol were performed by using the molecular mechanics with the MMFF94s force field in the generalized born/surface area (GB/SA) model. The largest stabilization in Gibbs energy is obtained by the hydration (Δhyd H) of α-CD-1,2-butanediol complex among α-CD-butanediol isomers complexes.
