Thermodynamics of transfer of polar nonelectrolytes from water to aqueous salt solutions

The Setschenow parameter and thermodynamic parameters of transfer of a number of monosubstituted benzoic acids from water to different salt solutions have been reported. The data have been rationalized by considering the structure breaking effects of the ions of the salts, the localised hydrolysis model, the internal pressure theory and Symons' theory of water structure.

Thermodynamic Parameters of Transfer of 2-Nitrobenzoic Acid & 3-Nitrobenzoic Acid from Water to Aqueous Salt Solutions

The Setschenow parameters of solubility in salt solutions and the thermodynamic parameters (25·C) of transfer from aqueous solution to aqueous salt solutions for 2-nitrobenzoic acid and 3-nitrobenzoic acid have been reported. The data have been rationalized on the basis of the localized hydrolysis model and the structure breaking action of ions of the electrolytes.

Thermodynamics of Transfer of Aminobenzoic Acids from Water to Aqueous Salt Solutions

The Setschenow parameter and thermodynamic parameters of transfer of 2- and 4-aminobenzoic acids from water to salt solutions have been reported. The results are discussed in terms of the structure- breaking effects of the ions of the salts, the localized hydrolysis model, and the internal pressure theory.

Investigation of nonlinear absorption and aggregation in aqueous solutions of rhodamine B using thermal lens technique

Thermal lensing effect was studied in aqueous solutions of rhodamine B using 532 nm, 9 ns pulses from a Nd:YAG laser. A low intensity He-Ne laser beam was used for probing the thermal lens. Results obtained show that it is appropriate to use this technique for studying nonlinear absorption processes like two photon absorption or excited state absorption and for analyzing dimerization equilibria.

Studies of nonlinear absorption and aggregation in aqueous solutions of rhodamine 6G using a transient thermal lens technique

Dual-beam transient thermal lens studies were carried out in aqueous solutions of rhodamine 6G using 532 nm pulses from a frequency-doubled Nd:YAG laser. The analysis of the observed data showed that the thermal lens method can effectively be utilized to study the nonlinear absorption and aggregation which are taking place in a dye medium.
