Abstract

For the first time ultrasonic velocity- density correlations have applied to ionic and isotopic liquids. Familiar Auerbach relation, Altenburg relation and temperature dependent correlation were employed to calculate surface tension of N-octyl-3-methyl pyridiniumtetraflouoroborate[o3mpy][BF₄] and five pairs of isotopic liquids named, H₂O-D₂O,C₆H₆-C₆D₆,C₆H₁₂-C₆D₁₂, CH₃OH-CH₃OD and C₂H₅OH-C₂H₅OD. All the correlations yield excellent results except Auerbach relation. For the applicability of this relation we have modified it. The modified Auerbach relation also gives good agreement with the experimental values of surface tension.
