Abstract

Ultrasonic velocity and density values are measured for aqueous solutions containing 2.00 mol.%, 4.00 mol.%, and 5.00 mol.% glycine in a temperature range of 15-65°C, 5.50 mol.% glycine (20-65°C), and 6.00 mol.% glycine (25-65°C). Adiabatic compressibilities (κS) and molar adiabatic compressibilities (ΚS) are calculated. The values of κS and ΚS decrease monotonically with an increase in glycine concentrations up to saturation at all the temperatures. The temperature dependences of κS and ΚS have minima that are typical of water and aqueous solutions; the positions of the minima depend on the glycine concentration. The temperature coefficients of the molar compressibility, ∂ΚS/∂T, change their signs from negative to positive at lower temperatures (by approximately 10 deg) than ∂κS/∂T.
