INTRODUCTION
The knowledge of the thermodynamic properties of organic liquid mixtures is of immense importance for understanding the molecular interactions between the components. This also helps to evolve theoretical models and is useful in industrial applications [1 – 4]. Excess properties of liquid systems, such as excess molar volume, deviation in molar refraction are needed for the design of separation equipment and to test the theories of the solution [5]. In addition, excess properties provide information about the molecular interactions and macroscopic behaviour of fluid mixtures and can be used to test and to improve thermodynamical models for calculating and predicting the fluid phase equilibria. The knowledge of excess Gibbs free energy of activation for viscous flow helps in understanding the molecular orientation and to study the extent of
chapter reports here the density ( m ), refractive index ( nm ) and viscosity ( m ) for binary mixtures of butylamine with 1-butanol and tert-butanol over the entire composition range at temperatures 293, 303 and 313K. Further, seven mixing rules for refractive index proposed by Lorentz-Lorenz (L-L), Gladstone-Dale (G-D), Weiner (W), Heller (H), Arago- Biot (A-B), Newton (N) and Eykmen (Eyk) for the prediction of refractive index theoretically have been applied to these binary mixtures. A comparative study has been made between the experimental and theoretically calculated values of refractive indices at all the three temperatures. The results have been discussed in terms of average percentage deviation (APD).

DISCUSSION
m
According to Fort and Moore [8], a negative excess molar volume (V E ) is an indication of strong hetero-molecular interaction in the liquid mixtures and is attributed to change-transfer, dipole-dipole interaction and hydrogen bonding between the unlike molecules, while a positive sign indicates a weak interaction and is attributed to dispersive forces. The magnitudes of the contribution will

negative for both the mixtures at all the temperatures. The values of V E and Rm support each other. The V E and Rm values become more negative at higher temperature for both the mixtures, suggesting an increase in interaction between unlike molecules.

Table 5.3 shows that viscosity deviation ( ) values are positive for butylamine + 1-butanol and negative for butylamine + tert-butanol mixtures. The positive values of
in butylamine + 1-butanol mixture can be explained on the basis of complex formation between unlike molecules through hydrogen bonding. The negative values
of for butylamine + tert-butanol may be attributed to the presence of weak dipole-dipole interaction due to predominance rupture of dipolar association of tert-butanol
and steric hindrance produced by three methyl group over
the hydrogen bond formed between unlike molecules. Our positive values of in the case of butylamine + 1-

butylamine + tert-butanol mixture may be assigned to the predominance of dispersive forces. This is due to the fact that C-O bond is weaker in the case of tertiary alcohols due to +I (electron repelling) effect of alkyl groups while O-H bond is weaker in primary alcohols as electron density

values for binary mixtures of ether
+alcohols and -butyrolactone + dimethylcarbonate.
Further, Seven empirical relations were used for the prediction of refractive indices. The refractive index data correlated with these semi-empirical equations for both the binary mixtures show an excellent agreement with the respective experimental values of refractive index. It can be seen from table 5.4 that the correlation of these equations showed the suitability of all the seven relations for representing the mixing refractive indices of the binary mixtures of butylamine + 1-butanol/tert-butanol. The applicability of these semi-empirical relations for predicting refractive index has also been emphasized by others [17, 18].

CONCLUSION
The measured values of refractive index and viscosity along with the estimated values of various developed parameters suggest the existence of hetero-molecular association through hydrogen bonding in butylamine + 1-butanol mixture while behaviour of butylamine + tert-butanol mixture indicates the presence of long range dispersive forces among the components. The behaviour of all the excess parameters studied here supports each other. The various semi-empirical relations for representing the refractive index data theoretically give reasonably good results.
