Determination of ultrasonic velocity in 52 organic liquids

  • Published:
Proceedings of the Indian Academy of Sciences - Section A Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

The paper gives determinations of ultrasonic velocities at 7·32 × 106 cycles for 52 organic liquids and water by the method of diffraction of light by ultrasonic waves. It is shown how the velocity depends on chemical constitution.

Included in the paper are adiabatic compressibilities for all the liquids studied, calculated from the well-known formula.
