The simple equations for prediction of the density and viscosity of mixed electrolyte solutions were extended to the related properties of mixed ionic liquid solutions. The density and viscosity were measured for ternary solutions [C2q]Br(N-ethylquinolinium bromide)+[C4q]Br (N-butylquinolinium bromide)+H2O, [C2q]Br+[C6q]Br(N-hexylquinolinium bromide)+H2O, and [C4q]Br+[C6q]Br+H2O and their binary subsystems [C2q]Br+H2O, [C4q]Br+H2O, and [C6q]Br+H2O at 15, 20 and 25 °C, respectively. The results were used to test the predictability of the extended equations. The comparison results show that these simple equations can be used to predict the density and viscosity of the mixed ionic liquid solutions from the properties of their binary subsystems of equal ionic strength.
Viscosities were measured for the ternary systems Y(NO3)3+La(NO3)3+H2O, La(NO3)3+Ce(NO3)3+H2O, and La(NO3)3+Nd(NO3)3+ H2O and their binary subsystems Y(NO3)3+H2O, La(NO3)3+H2O, Ce(NO3)3+H2O, and Nd(NO3)3+H2O at 293.15, 298.15 and 308.15 K. The results were used to test the applicability of simple equations for the viscosity of the mixed solutions. The predictions agreed well with measured values, implying that the viscosities of the examined electrolyte solutions could be related to those of their constituent binary solutions using these simple equations.
