Excess enthalpies have been measured for Ž2-methyoxyethanol q methyl 1,1-methylethyl ether. and for Ž2-methoxyethanol q n-heptane. at the temperature 298.15 K. Smooth representations of the results are described and, in the case of the n-heptane mixture, are used to estimate the limiting mole fractions for the region of partial miscibility. q 1998 Academic Press

1. Introduction The thermodynamic properties of mixtures containing 2-methoxyethanol Ž2ME. are of interest in view of the wide use of that material as an industrial solvent. The present paper reports excess molar enthalpies, measured at T s 298.15 K, for binary mixtures of 2ME with methyl 1,1-dimethylethyl ether ŽMTBE., or n-heptane ŽnC7.. The measurements for Ž2ME q MTBE. are an extension of our previous studies of mixtures of MTBE with other alkanols Ž1. and ethers.Ž2 ] 6. In the case of Ž2ME q nC7., excess molar enthalpies, measured at more elevated temperatures T s Ž323.15 K, 348.15 K, and 373.15. K4 , have been reported in the literature. Ž7. Our measurements for that mixture were undertaken to study the variation of the excess molar enthalpy at a lower temperature, where partial miscibility occurs.
2. Experimental HPLC Grade 2ME and MTBE, with mole fraction purities exceeding 0.998, were obtained from Sigma-Aldrich. The nC7, pure grade material with mole fraction purity exceeding 0.990, was obtained from the Phillips Chemical Co. Apart from partial degassing, all of the components were used as received from the a Visiting Professor on sabbatical leave from the Department of Chemical Engineering, University of Saskatchewan, Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada S7N 5C9.

These results are in reasonable agreement with values in the literature.Ž8 ] 10. An LKB flow microcalorimeter ŽModel 10700-1., thermostated at ŽT s 298.150 " 0.003. K, was used to measure the excess molar enthalpies HmE . Details of the equipment and the operating procedure have been described previously.Ž11,12. Over most of the mole fraction range, the errors of the excess molar enthalpies and the mole fractions of the mixtures are estimated to be -0.005 . < HmE < and -5 . 10y4 , respectively. However, near the ends of the mole fraction range where the magnitudes of the slopes of the HmE Ž x . curves are large, the error of the results may be ;0.05 . < HmE < .

was fitted to these results by the method of least-squares, with all points weighted equally. Values of the coefficients h k are listed in the footnote of table 1, along with the standard deviation s of the representation. The results and their representation by equation Ž1. are plotted in figure 1. The curve is slightly skewed towards x s 0 and has a maximum value of HmE f 520 J . moly1 near x s 0.43. Generally, HmE for mixtures of MTBE with other ethers Ž2 ] 6. is more nearly symmetric about x s 0.5. The present behaviour is reminiscent of that found for MTBE with alkanols.Ž1.

linearity of the results for mole fractions in the range 0.15 - x - 0.8 can be interpreted as an indication of phase separation. In the analysis of HmE , the results were separated into three sets: L, P, and H, as indicated by the footnotes of the table. L and H consisted of points in the regions of complete miscibility near x s 0 and x s 1, respectively. The third set, P,

represent the results in each set. In order to obtain a form suitable for extrapolating the values in sets L and H into the region of partial miscibility, it was necessary to draw reasonable spline fits of the results and to use these in determining the values of the coefficients in equation Ž2.. The resulting representations of HmE and the standard deviations s of the representations are given in the footnotes of the table. The HmE values calculated from equation Ž2. are represented by the solid lines shown in figure 2. The limiting points for phase separation were obtained by solving for the intersections of the pairs ŽL, P. and ŽP, H.. The resulting points x s 0.1309, HmE rŽJ . moly1 . s 816.04 and x s 0.8283, HmE rŽJ . moly1 . s 681.04 are plotted in figure 2. The range Ž0.1309 - x - 0.8283. for the partial miscibility of Ž2ME q nC7. at T s 298.15 K is smaller than the range Ž0.110 - x - 0.874. reportedŽ13. for the partial miscibility of the same mixture at T s 303.15 K.
