Compressibility of liquids. Rule of noncrossing V-P curvatures.

Weight analysis of the liquid introduced into the stainless steel bomb under pressures up to 1 kbar in the temperature range of 20-50 degrees C at the interval of 10 degrees C was performed for 1,4-dioxane, acetonitrile, toluene, ethyl acetate, chlorobenzene, and n-hexane. The coefficients of the Tait equation were determined for all of the solvents at each temperature. There was a clear linear relation between the tangent bulk modulus (1/beta T) at atmospheric pressure (1 bar) and the secant bulk modulus at 1 kbar; 1/betaT=0.
