2 The Revew of Physcal Chemstry of Japan Vol. 26 No. 1 (1956) THE SOLUBILITIES OF COMPRESSEfl ACETYLENE GAS IN LIQUIDS, The Solublty of Compressed Acekylene Gas n Tetrahydrofuran* IV HY RYO KIYAM AND IlIROYUKI HIRAOKA Inkroduckon In the prevous papers, the authors reported the solubltes of compressed acetylene gas n wa±er'>, methanol-' and benzene' and found that the solublty of acetylene n water at lugh pressures deva*.es nega±vely from Henry's law n the from N,=kP, where N: s the mole fracton of acetylene, P the partal pressure of acetylene and k a constant and the solublty s nearly proportonal to the fugac[y of acetylene, whle the solubhtes n methanol and n benzene a± hgh pressures devate postvely from Henry's law and moreover the soluton of benzene shows the postve devaton from Raoult's larv and ths devaton cottld be well explaned on the bass of the theory of regular solutons wth the Flory-Huggns entropy correcton arsng from the dfference n the nrolal volumes of the two substances. In the present paper, the solublty of acetylene n tetrahydrofuranhavng an electronegatve oxygen atom n the molecule, a donor solvent for acetylene, n the range of temperature from to 3 C and up to pressure 3 kg/cm', whch has been never measured, s reported and rather qualtatve consderatons upon the characterstcs of acetylene solutons are gven. I Expermentals Tetrahydrofuran used as the solvent s fractonated by dstllaton, after refluxng wth metallc sodum for several hours and a porton wth bolng pont C (76 mmhg) s taken, and ts vapor pressure measured wth an sotenscope n the range of6 to 76 mmhg and ts densty from 5 to 3 C are represented by Eqs.

Resultr The vapor pressure and densty of tetrahydrofuran at each temperature used n the calculaton of the solublty are represented by Eqs. (1) and (2) and the coeffcents of dlataton by the absorpton of acetylene n tetrahydrofuran are assumed to have the same valve as n acetone'i because the data n tetrahydrofuran are lackng and the dfference among the values n the other solvents s comparatvely small f the solvents are lke one another,* and the correcton of the solublty due to the dlata+on s small.

5 L V The Revew of Physcal Chemstry of Japan Vol. 26 No. 1 (1956) 4 R. K}ama and H. Hraolsa Consderatons The authors have measured the solubltes of acetylene n water, methanol, benzene and tetrahydrofuran and these solubltes aze classfed nto two cases n vew of the effect of the partal pressure of acetylene. One s the case n whch the solublty at hgh pressures devates postvely from Henry's law and the other the case n whchthe solublty :devates negatvely. The solubltes n methanol and n benzene belong to the former and those n water and n tetrahydrofuran to the latter, as s seen from Fg. 3 n whch the mole fracton of acetylene s plotted aganst the. partal pressure of.acetylene. In the latter case. t s notable that the solublty n water s exceptonally low and proportonal to the fugacty of acetylene and the solublty n tetrahydrofuran s the hghest among those n these solvents used and ffty tmes as hgh as the mole fracton of acetylene n water at 2 C and 2 kg/cm=. It may be consdered that the solublty of acetylene n alcohol or n nonpolar solvents n general belongs to the former and the solublty of acetylene n donor solvents or n water to the latter, when the solublty s represented by the mole fracton of acetylene. -~ hfethanol.5 TecrahYdMfuran os 2 OS Y b T Q Q Bemene t ~_ os y Water Pamrene `c.~ 3 Sfethanol `o ='.4 <`.2 Tetrahvdrofuran Wafer o s o t; zo zs an o oz o.a ob oa partal Dressure of acetylene: kgrem' h7ole franon of acetykne..h4 Fg. 3 Solublty of acetylene as functon of Fg. 4.

The constants n Ey. (4) are System A A acetylene-water acetylene-methanol acetylene-benzene acetylene-tetrahydrofuran.16 In [he last system, acetylene-tetrahydrofuran. the frst term A on the rght hand sde of Eq. (4) contans only the contrbuton by the Poyntng effect, and the second term s taken nto no account because the approprate physcal constants of Letrahydrofuran necessary to the calculaton are unavalable. Then the fugacty of acetylene n solutons n equlbrum wth the gaseous phase s calculated as an approxmaton usng Lews-Randall's law, f =f_ N_, where. f., s the fugacty of acetylene n the soluton and f_ the fugacty n the pure state. 1'he dfference between the value of the fugacty thus obtaned and the value under the assumpton that the gaseous phase s pure acetylene s consderable at hgh temperatures and low pressures, but the dfference s only slght at low temperatures and hgh pressures. Fg. 4, n whch the actvty of acetylene n each soluton at 2 (; s plotted aganst the mole fracton of acetylene, shows [hat the postve devatons from Raoult's law are found n the souton of acetylene n water, methanol and benzene, whereas the negatve devaton n the soluton of acetylene n tetrahydrofuran, In the dscusson of the solutons of compressed gases, the change of free energy or actvty wth pressure mus*_ be taken nto account and ths change s related by the well known thermodynamc equa~son to the partal molal volume of the solute n solutons. In the followng paper the authors wll report on the measurements of the partal molal volume of acetylene n the wde range of concentraton n the varous solvents. So, n the present paper qualtatve consderatons about the characterstcs of acetylene solutons may be rather gven n the followng.

Hraoka I Acetylene tetrahydrafaran sys[en: Tetrahydrofuran has an electronegazve oxygen atom n the carbon chan of the molecule whch has electrons that are avalable for hydrogen bond formaton wth the proton of acetylene. Studes on the solubltyof acetylene n such a donor solvent havng an actve center have been made extensvely from the techncal pont of vew, but those under hgh pressures are comparatvely few. 1'he solublty of acetylene n acetone measm~ed by Holemann e a1,.1> changes n the same manner as n tetrahydrofuran wth pressure. Fg. 7, n whch the actvty of acetylene s plotted aganst the mole fracton of acetylene, shows that the negatve de~~aton from Raoult's law n the soluton of acetylene n tetrahydrofttran s slghtly smaller than that n the soluton of acetone obtaned from the data by Holemann e! al. and the temperature coeffcents of the actvty of acetylene n both solvents are postve, ndcatng that the heats of soluton n such donor solvents are negatve, that s, exothermc and the strong specfc nteracton between acetylene and donor solvent molecule may be expected n accordance wth the assumpton of hydrogen bond formaton between the electronegatve atom n the donor solvent and the proton of acetylene.
