Theoretical Formulism of Viscosity of Liquid Mixtures Using Generalized Hole Theory—A New Approach

The generalized hole theory has been developed for the estimation of viscosity of liquid mixtures and has been applied for the calculation of viscosity of four binary [viz. toluene + cyclohexane (I), toluene + carbon tetrachloride (II), cyclohexane + carbon tetrachloride (III) and benzene + n-hexane (IV)], four ternary [viz. carbon tetrachloride + cyclohexane + benzene (I), toluene + n-heptane + n-hexane (II), cyclohexane + n-heptane + n-hexane (III) and n-hexane + n-heptane + n-decane (IV)] and one quaternary liquid mixture [viz. carbon tetrachloride + cyclohexane + benzene + toluene]. The calculated values obtained are compared with the experimental values of viscosities.
