Refractive Indices of Ternary System: Benzene + Toluene + Cyclohexane and its Binary Combination

Abstract

Various mixing rules for the binary and ternary liquid mixtures
have been applied for the binary system: benzene + toluene, benzene
+ cyclohexane and toluene + cyclohexane and ternary system: benzene
+ toluene + cyclohexane and ternary system: benzene +
toluene + cyclohexane for calculating the refractive indices. A comparative
study has been made and the theoretical values compared
with the experimentally determined values of refractive index. Excellent
agreement has been found.
Physico-chemical calculations involving multi phase systems
(benzene + toluene + cyclohexane) require the prediction of refracti
ve index of multi component liquid systems. The structures of
liquids and liquid mixtures can be predicted through refractive indices
employing molar refraction and molecular connectivity.
