The fimctiong(ri is central to the modem theory of liquids, since it can be measured experimentally using neutron or x-ray diffraction and can be related to the interparticle potential energy. Experimental data [1] for two liquids, water and argon (iso-electronic with water) are shown in figure A2.4.1 plotted as a fiinction ofR = R /a, where a is the effective diameter of the species, and is roughly the position of the first maximum in g (R). For water, a = 2.82 A,...

As already mentioned, the choice of the supercooled liquid as reference state has been questioned by some workers who use the saturation vapour pressure of the solid, which is measured at the working temperature in the course of the isotherm determination. The effect of this alternative choice of p° on the value of a for argon adsorbed on a number of oxide samples, covering a wide range of surface areas, is clear from Table 2.11 the average value of is seen to be somewhat higher, i.e. 18 OA. ... 

The survey in the present section shows quite clearly that it is not possible to assign a fixed value of a to a given adsorptive, which will remain valid for its adsorption on ail adsorbents. As demonstrated in Section 2.7, nitrogen and argon would seem to provide the best approximation to a constant effective molecular area, with = 16-2 A and a, (Ar) = 16-6 A. ... 

The physical properties of argon, krypton, and xenon are frequendy selected as standard substances to which the properties of other substances are compared. Examples are the dipole moments, nonspherical shapes, quantum mechanical effects, etc. The principle of corresponding states asserts that the reduced properties of all substances are similar. The reduced properties are dimensionless ratios such as the ratio of a material s temperature to its critical...

Succinic anhydride is stabilized against the deteriorative effects of heat by the addition of small amounts (0.5 wt %) of boric acid (27), the presence of which also decreases the formation of the dilactone of gamma ketopimelic acid (28). Compared with argon, CO2 has an inhibiting effect on the thermal decomposition of succinic acid, whereas air has an accelerating effect (29,30).
