Determination of Solubility and Thermodynamic Properties of Benzophenone in Different Pure Solvents
The solubility of benzophenone in various pure solvents, including water, ethanol, 1-propanol, isopropanol, methanol, 1-butanol, isobutanol, 1-octanol, acetonitrile, acetone, ethyl acetate, and methyl acetate, has been measured at temperatures between 278.15 and 318.15 K by a gravimetric method under atmospheric pressure. The solubility obtained in the selected pure solvents increases with the increasing temperature. Several thermodynamic models, including the modified Apelblat model, NRTL model, and Wilson model, were applied to correlate the measured solubility. It was found that the correlated results of the three models were in good agreement with the experimental results. In addition, the dissolution thermodynamic properties of benzophenone in the pure solvents were determined.
