Non-ideality of Cyclohexane–Benzene Mixtures

Abstract

THE second virial coefficients of benzene–cyclohexane vapour mixtures have been measured using an apparatus of the differential type previously described1 and the results used to calculate the interaction coefficient B12 from the expression: B = x21B11 + 2x1x2B12 + x22B22 where B11, B22 and x1, x2 are the virial coefficients and the mole fractions of the pure components cyclohexane and benzene respectively.
