Author(s): A. Guha and Debaprasad Panda

The scale particle theory predicting has solubilities in mixed solvents at 1 atmosphere pressure and ordinary temperature has been studied. A method for predicting Henry’s law constant of single gas in mixed solvents, from the corresponding data of pure components by using statistical mechanical theory is presented. Good agreement with experimental results are obtained for helium, argon, nitrogen, oxygen, methane and ethylene gases in a variety of solvent mixture (water, methanol, ethanol, 1- propanol, 2-proponal, 1,2-diethanediol, acetone, n-hexane and n-dodecane).
