The Rayleigh scattering length has been calculated for rare-gas liquids in the ultraviolet for the frequencies at which they luminesce. The calculations are based on the measured dielectric constants in the UV in the gas phase, in some cases extrapolated to the wavelength of luminescence. The scattering length may place constraints on the design of some large-scale detectors, using UV luminesce...

We investigate the modification of gas phase ion polarizabilities upon solvation in polar solvents and ionic liquids. To this aim, we develop a classical electrostatic theory of charged liquids composed of solvent molecules modeled as finite size dipoles, and embedding polarizable ions that consist of Drude oscillators. In qualitative agreement with ab initio calculations of polar solvents and ...

In recent years there has been a great deal of attention paid by researchers in investigating ionic liquids (ILs) mainly due to the tremendous potential that ionic liquids have in reaction and separation technology. Sonic speed is an important thermodynamic property of ionic liquids (ILs) and always chosen as a source to determine other properties. A database for the sonic speed of pure ILs cre...

A theoretical investigation of factors affecting the gas phase transport of evaporating organic liquids in the unsaturated zone is presented. Estimates of density-dfiven advective gas flow using a simple analytic expression indicate that significant advective gas flow will result from the evaporation of volatile liquids in soils having a high permeability. Numerical simulations using a two-dime...

Supported ionic liquid membranes (SILMs) has the potential to be a new technological platform for gas/organic vapour separation because of the unique non-volatile nature and discriminating gas dissolution properties of room temperature ionic liquids (ILs). This work starts with an examination of gas dissolution and transport properties in bulk imidazulium cation based ionic liquids [C(n)mim][NT...

in this work, the pc-saft equation of state (eos) has been used to model the solubility of acid gases (co2 and h2s) in two imidazolium-based ionic liquids (ils) ([c8-mim][pf6] and [c8-mim][tf2n]). parameters of pure ils were estimated using experimental densities. two strategies were considered to model densities of pure ils. in strategy 1, ils were modeled as nonassociating compounds and in st...
