Abstract
Excess properties calculated from the literature values of experimental density and viscosity in N,N-dimethylacetamide + formamide binary mixtures between 298.15 K and 318.15 K can lead us to test different correlation equations as well as their corresponding relative functions. Inspection of the Arrhenius activation energy Ea and the enthalpy of activation of viscous flow Delta H* shows very close values. Here, we can define partial molar activation energies Ea(1) and Ea(2) for N,N-dimethylacetamide and formamide, respectively, along with their individual contribution separately. Correlation between the two Arrhenius parameters of viscosity in all compositions shows the existence of two main distinct behaviours separated by the mole fraction equal to 0.3 of N,N-dimethylacetamide. In addition, the correlation between Arrhenius parameters reveals interesting Arrhenius temperature, which is closely related to the vaporisation temperature in the liquid vapour equilibrium and the limiting corresponding partial molar properties can permit us to predict the boiling points of the pure components.
