Molecular Interactions in 1-Ethyl-3-Methylimidazolim Tetrafluoroborate + Amide Mixtures: Excess Molar Volumes, Excess Isentropic Compressibilities and Excess Molar Enthalpies

The densities, ρ12, and speeds of sound, u12, of 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate (1) + N-methylformamide or N,N-dimethylformamide (2) binary mixtures at (293.15. 298.15. 303.15, 308.15 K), and excess molar enthalpies, H12E\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$$ H_{12}^{\text{E}} $$\end{document}, of the same mixtures at 298.15 K have been measured over the entire mole fraction range using a density and sound analyzer (Anton Paar DSA-5000) and a 2-drop microcalorimeter, respectively.
