✦ Synopsis
Molar solvation enthalpy (deltasol H(o)298) and molar heat capacity changes (deltasol C(o)p) were determined by gas chromatography for the C6-C12 n-alkanes on four preferred stationary phases (100% polydimethyl siloxane, 50% diphenyl-50% dimethyl polysiloxane, 50% trifluoropropyl methylsiloxane, and polyethylene glycol) in commercial FSOT. Statistical evaluation indicated the temperature independence of deltasol C(o)p in the range 303-393 K. Deltasol H(o)298 depends linearly on the number of carbon atoms in the n-alkanes, but no linearity could be established for deltasol C(o)p of higher homologues on polar columns, which may be due to a more ordered state on the liquid phase. The homologues for which a linear temperature dependence exists demonstrated that deltasol C(o)p is related linearly to the van der Waals volume and the temperature derivative of the density of the stationary phase. The results are consistent with a simple physical explanation at the molecular level.
