Abstract
The (p,ρ,T) properties and apparent molar volumes Vφ of LiNO3 in ethanol at temperatures T = (298.15 to 398.15) K and pressures up to p = 40 MPa are reported. The vibration tube densimeter method used during the experiments. The experiments were carried out at molalities of m = (0.12071, 0.26234, 60237, 0.97956, 1.83765, 2.62045 and 3.27773) mol kg–1 using lithium nitrate. An empirical correlation for the density of (LiNO3 + C2H5OH) with pressure, temperature and molality has been derived. The short form of equation of state was developed for the technical calculations. Apparent molar volume and thermal properties of LiNO3 in ethanol were calculated using the equation of state.
