In this work, the mean activity coefficients of KCl in the KCl+lactose +water system were determined using the potentiometric method. The electromotive force measurements were carried out on the galvanic cell without liquid junction of the type: Ag|AgCl|KCl (m), lactose (wt.%), H2O (1−wt.) %|K-ISE, in various mixed solvent systems containing 0, 5,7.5, 10 and 12.5 % mass fractions of lactose. Th...

density, viscosity and refractive index of pure, binary and ternary mixtures of diethanolamine (dea) and methyl diethanolamine (mdea) with water have been measured at different temperatures from 288.15 k to 323.15 k at atmospheric pressure. also, this study presents the effects of mixture composition and temperature upon these thermo- physical properties. to measure the density and refractive i...

Twelve binary and eight ternary H-bonded systems between uracil and water=methanol were investigated at the B3LYP and MP2 theoretical levels using 6 31þG(d) basis functions. The binary and ternary systems that contain the hydroxo-uracil tautomer H-bonded with water and methanol were found to be the most stable complexes. The calculated energy barriers of the intermolecular proton exchange showe...

The modified NRTL (m-NRTL) model is used to represent the excess Gibbs free energy of aqueous (alcohol + electrolyte) solutions. In this work, the m-NRTL model previously developed for representation of vapor-liquid equilibria for (polymer + salt + water) systems has been extended to represent liquid-liquid equilibria of (alcohol + salt + water) systems. The proposed extension is a modified of ...

Balanced ternary number representation and arithmetic, based on the symmetric radix-3 digit set {−1, 0, +1}, has been studied at various times in the history of computing. Among established advantages of balanced ternary arithmetic are representational symmetry, favourable error characteristics and rounding by truncation. In this study, we show an additional advantage: that of lower-error trunc...

Density functional theory is applied to the study of gas-to-liquid nucleation in binary and ternary mixtures with one amphiphilic component. The theory allows the evaluation of density profiles and molecular orientation distributions in the critical nucleus. The predicted cluster compositions for binary and ternary systems resemble qualitatively the experimental behavior for water–n-alcohol and...

The likelihood that an undercooled liquid vitrifies or crystallizes depends on the cooling rate R. The critical cooling rate R(c), below which the liquid crystallizes upon cooling, characterizes the glass-forming ability (GFA) of the system. While pure metals are typically poor glass formers with R(c)>10(12)K/s, specific multi-component alloys can form bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) even at cooli...

Finding prospective high temperature materials for use in advanced coal-fired plants has proven to be an extreme materials challenge. We propose a new methodlogy to predict alloys with high melting temperatures by estimating their formation enthalpies. The Miedema’s approach has been extended to ternary systems using an energy minimization scheme. The power of this approach is demonstrated by c...

In this study a simple and general chemical association theory is introduced. The concept of infinite equilibrium model is re-examined and true mole fractions of associated species are calculated. The theory is applied to derive the distribution function of associated species. As a severe test the application of presented theory to the van der Waals mixture model is introduced in order to p...

We generalize the result of the preceeding paper and solve the Yang–Baxter equation in terms of triple systems called orthogonal and symplectic ternary systems. In this way, we found several other new solutions. PAC: 03.65Fd. 02.90.+p
