SATURATED LIQUID DENSITIES OF BENZENE, CYCLOHEXANE, AND HEXANE FROM 298.15-K TO 473.15-K

The results of measurements of saturated liquid densities using a high -pressure stainless steel pycnometer system over a wide variation of t emperature from 298.15 to 473.15 K are presented for benzene, cyclohex ane, and hexane. Experimental densities were compared with those predi cted by the Spencer-Danner-modified Rackett equation (SDR) and the Han kinson-Brobst-Thompson correlation (HBT). The SDR showed an average de viation of 0.22% while the HBT predicted the densities of the three or ganic solvents with an average deviation of 0.28%. The data obtained h ave also been compared with the available data reported in the literat ure.
