The compression of n-hexane, n-heptane, n-octane, and of binary and ternary mixtures of these hydrocarbons has been determined up to 5000 atmospheres, and at O°, 25°, 40°, and 60°. The isotherms are expressed in the form of the Tait equation. The energy-volume coefficients, (∂E/∂V) T and the pressure coefficients, (∂P/∂T)v, are found to be pure volume functions, and at all the temperatures and pressures employed the hydrocarbons mix without expansion or contraction in volume.
