Uniformly presents extensive data on the properties of solvent mixtures and describes their structures and interactions-leading to analyses of preferential solvation phenomena in these solvent mixtures. This reference examines the properties, function, and behavior of binary, ternary, and multicomponent mixtures in the presence and absence of solutes-detailing the effects and impact of preferential solvation on the environment, action, and components of chemical systems. Features numerous tables displaying the physical, thermodynamic, and chemical properties of binary solvent mixtures. Solvent Mixtures highlights - experimental approaches to determine when, and to what extent, preferential solvation has taken place -models for organic, ionic, macromolecular, and biochemical solutes and discusses -excess Gibbs energy and volume, enthalpy, and entropy -chemical probes for polarity, electron pair donicity, and hydrogen bond formation -correlation volumes and local mole fractions. Compiling, comparing, and analyzing research from a wide range of abstracts, journal articles, and websites, Solvent Mixtures is a timely guide for analytical, coordination, process, separation, surface, organic, inorganic, physical, and environmental chemists; geochemists; electrochemists; radiochemists; biochemists; biophysicists; hydrometallurgists; membrane researchers; chemical engineers; and upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in these disciplines.
