Surface tensions of solutions of oxalic, malonic, succinic, glutaric a
nd adipic acids in water and water + acetone (x(acetone) = 0.016, 0.03
3, 0.072, 0.117 and 0.171) mixtures at different temperatures for vary
ing ranges of concentrations have been measured by means of the ring d
etachment method. The data were analyzed using Gibbs equations and var
ious thermodynamic functions have been evaluated. The results reveal t
he nature of solute adsorption at the interface in these solvents. (C)
