1 Introduction

Behavior of low-melting organic salts or ionic liquids (ILs)[1ndash6] in the region of phase transitions is qualitatively similarto that either for high-temperature nonorganic molten saltsor long-hydrocarbon-chain organic solvents and even forpolymer systems Such characteristic features as negligiblevapor pressure 119875

existence of glassy states make the problem of metastabilityto be quite complex but vital for many potential uses ofILs In particular thermodynamic modeling and computersimulation of the phase behavior in mixtures formed byILs with water and low-molecular organic solvents such asethylene can be of great importance for the further tuning oftheir operational parameters If one proceeds from a pure to amixed fluid it is especially advantageous to develop the sameformat of reference equation of state (EOS) and the common

format of reference pair potential (RPP) for each componentand mixture

As a first step toward consistent modeling of thephase behavior of IL and its solution we demonstrate inthis work how the fluctuational-thermodynamic (FT)EOS [7ndash12] and the relevant finite-range Len-nard-Jones (LJ) RPP can be applied to model the underlyingstructure and properties of low-molecular (C

Such approachwas proposed recently [7 8] to reconstructthe hypothetical (V 119897)-diagram of any ILs in its stable andmetastable regions on the base of only standard reference dataon density 120588(119879) at119875

this is first attempt to predict simultaneously the wholeset of one-phase and two-phase properties for ILs withoutthe fit at any other pressures including the negative ones Itwas argued that the particular low-temperature variant ofthe most general FT-EOS [9ndash12] should be used to obtainthe consistent prediction of volumetric properties and thestandard response functions 119886

pressure coefficient 120574120588while the isothermal compressibility

changeable sign of two thermal derivatives 120572119875 120574120588offers

a possibility to predict the properties of anomalous low-temperature substances (such aswater for example) too [7 8]

Fortunately we have obtained now [13ndash19] a possibilityto test our predictions not only by the direct experimentalone-phase data [14 16 18 19] on 120588(119875 119879)- and 119882(119875 119879)-surfaces Another possibility is offered by comparison of thepredictions obtained by FT-EOS for the critical parametersof ILs ([bmim][BF

location of (119879119888 119875119888)-parameters predicted by both EOSs is

some guarantee of their reliability while119879119888and119875119888from [6] are

significantly overestimated and underestimated respectivelyInterestingly the known descriptive factor of compressibility

119903119905= 119875119888(120588119905119877119879119888) estimated by Guggenheim [20] in the vicinity

the fit to (119875 120588 119879)-experimental data for [bmim][BF4] and

[bmim][PF6] provide the structural estimates of hard-core

volume number of lattice sites in a cluster and energyof near-neighbor pair interactions which are surprisinglyclose to ones independently predicted by the FT-model of acontinuum substance

Taking into account the compatibility of above results itis important to consider the presumable similarity betweenthe square-well fluid (which may be thought of as a con-tinuum analogue of the lattice-gas (LG) or lattice-fluid (LF)systems) on the one hand and the LJ-fluid of finite-rangeinteractions (RPP) on the other This conceptual analogy hasbeen pointed out long ago for the critical region by Widom[21] who suggested that it is the propagation of attractivecorrelations in the LG which determines the peculiarities ofcriticality However such unphysical LG-predictions at lowtemperatures of the (120588 119879)-plane as the nonexistence of a (119897 119904)-transition suggest that repulsive forces are not being treatedproperly by this RPP-model In contrast with the discreteLG-model it seems that both attractive and repulsive forcesare being dealt with properly in the square-well continuumfluid because it exhibits both (V 119897)- and (119897 119904)-transitionsThe serious restriction of latter is however evident sinceany singularities of RPP imply an artificial jump of pair-distribution isotropic function 119892(119903) at the point of cutoffradius 119903

119888for attractive interactions

In this context only the shifted and smoothed at 119903119888-

point LJ-potential [5 6] seems to be appropriate as RPP fora continuum system Of course the algebraic form of therespective reference EOS is essential too In accordance withthe statistical-mechanical arguments presented by Widom[21] there are the set of alternative forms including theoriginal vdW-EOS and the LG-EOS in thewell-knownBragg-Williams approximation which share the common restrictivefeature Onemay suppose that the probability of finding someprescribed value of the potential energy 119880( 119903) at an arbitrarypoint in the fluid is independent of 119879 at fixed 120588 119880( 119903 120588)Another simplifying assumption is that such EOS supposesonly two types of fluid structure one of the excluded (or hard-core) volume 119873V

0where the singular hard-sphere branch of

potential is infinite and one of free volume (119881 minus 119873V0) where

the potential is uniform weak and unrestricted (an infinite-range rectilinear well) It should be directly proportional todensity 119890 = 119880119873 = minus119886120588 where 119880 is the total configurationalenergy and 119886 is the constant vdW-coefficientThese historicalnotes are important to explain how one can go beyond theabove restriction of119879-independency by adoption of linear 120588-dependence for a generalized specific or molar energy (seealso (8) below) Consider

Another aim of the developed FT-EOS follows from thepossibility [7] to estimate the effective LJ-parameters withoutany fit Indeed their general T-dependent values

are determined simply in the low-temperature range of allILs where 119887

0is constant in ((1)ndash(4)) while the compressibility

factor of saturated liquid 119885119897= 119875120590(120588119897119877119879) becomes negligible

as well as the vapor pressure 119875120590(119879) trends to zero Taking into

account this asymptotic behavior it is especially importantto study the possible correlations of these parameters in theRPP-model of an effective LJ-potential for ILs as the functionsof total molecular weight 119872 This concept is unusual forthe conventional consideration of a separate influence of theanionrsquos 119872

119886and cationrsquos 119872

119888components It may provide in

principle the useful insight the nature of (V 119897)-transition inILs by effective capturing underlying pair interactions

The distinction of both FT-EOS and LF-EOS [14] fromthe conventional hard-sphere reference EOS is crucial toprovide the quantitative description of one-phase liquid Theformers include the quadratic in density contribution whichis dominating at high pressures along the isotherms Thelatter considers this term as a small vdW-perturbation for thehard-sphere EOS Such perturbation approach is not directlyapplicable to associating fluids such as water and alcoholsfor which presence of hydrogen bonding anisotropic dipolar11199033 or coulombic 1119903 interactions in addition to isotropic

dispersive 11199036 attractions is inconsistent with the main

assumption of the perturbation methodology that the struc-ture of a liquid is dominated by repulsive forces [15]

The FT-model promotes the more flexible approach inwhich the above factors of attraction and clustering can beeffectively accounted by the 119886(119879)-dependence It was firstlyconfirmed by Longuet-Higgins and Widom and then bymany authors that a combination of Carnahan-Starling EOSfor example with the vdW-perturbation 1198861205882 is a reasonableapproximation for the 119897- and 119904-phases but not the V-phaseGuggenheim [20] has concluded its applicability only to aliquid when large clusters are more important than smallclusters (ie at low temperatures 119879

= 1198750120588119877119879 and the 120588

Step 6 (119861-variant of 119909(119879)-prediction) To control the con-sistency of methodology one may use instead of Step 3 (119860-variant) the same equation (17) with the approximate equality120588119897(119879) asymp 120588

Step 7 The self-consistent prediction of a hypothetical(V 119897)-diagram requires the equilibration of CXC-pressures119875120590(119879 120588119892) = 119875120590(119879 120588119897) by FT-EOS (1) with the necessary final

change in 1198860(119879)-value from (19) to satisfy the equality

Since the low-temperature compressibility factor 119885119897(119879) is

very small for all discussed liquids their dispersive energies120576(119879) (molecular attractionrsquos parameters) are comparable inaccordance with (6b) However the differences in cohesiveenergies 119886(119879) (collective attractionrsquos parameters) between thelow-molecular substances (C

as it follows from Tables 1 and 2 The physical nature of such

distinction can be at the first glance attributed to omittedin the reference LJ-potential influence of intramolecularforce-field parameters and anisotropic (dipole-dipole andcoulombic) interactions At the same time one must accountthe collective macroscopic nature of 119886(119879)-parameter It cor-responds to the scales which are compatible or larger thanthe thermodynamic correlation length 120585(120588 119879) FT-model[9ndash12] provides an elegant and simple estimation of thiseffective parameter based on the concept of comparabilitybetween energetic and geometric characteristic of force fielddetermined by the given RPP Consider

consistency between the correlation length for statics and thecorrelation time for dynamics becomes crucial In any casethe computer study of possible nongaussian nature of localfluctuations within the thermodynamic correlation volume1205853 may be quite useful The relevant inhomogeneities inthe steady spacial distributions of density and enthalpy canaffect first of all the simulated values of volumetric (120572

and caloric (119862119901 119862V) derived quantities Simultaneously an

account of internal degrees of freedom and anisotropy by theperturbed RPP may change the correlation length itself

The above described by ((12)ndash(20)) FT-methodology hasbeen used to reconstruct the hypothetical phase diagram(HPD) for [bmim][BF

4] shown in Figures 2 3 and 4 and

represented in Table 3 Both (119879 120588) (Figure 2) and (119875 119879)(Figure 4) projections contain also the branches of classi-cal spinodal calculated by the LF (Sanchez-Lacombe)-EOSobtained in [14] Its top is the location of a respective criticalpoint It seems that the relatively close (119875

119888 119879119888)-parameters

predicted independently by FT-EOS and by LF-EOS (seeSection 1) are reasonable

The crucial influence of excluded-volume in (24a) andits relative irrelevance in (24b) for 119873

119897119892-predictions are illus-

trated by Figure 5 where119873119897(119879) function is shown also for the

entire l-branch based on the evaluated in the present workHPD For comparison the low-temperature ability to formthe (119873

119897+ 1)-clusters in liquid water [7 24] is represented in

Figure 5 tooIn according with ((25a) (25b)) the ldquofriablerdquo clusters

can exist only as dimers in the classical critical liquid phase(119873119888

119897asymp 1) It is not universal property in the meaning

of scaling theory but it corresponds to the PCS-concept ofsimilarity between two substances (H

2O and [C

4mim][BF

4]

eg) if their 119885119888-values are close On the other side the

scaling hypothesis of universality is confirmed by the FT-EOSrsquo estimates in the nonclassical critical vapor phase Forthe set of low-molecular-weight substances studied in [9](Ar C

2H4 CO2 H2O) for example one obtains by (25b)

the common estimate (119873119888119892asymp 25) which shows a significant

associative near-mean-field behaviorIt is worthwhile to note here the correspondence of

some FT-EOSrsquo-estimates with the set of GEMC-simulated

results One may use the approximate estimate of criticalslope 119860

119888asymp 786 [9] for [bmim][BF

4] based on the similarity

of its 119885119888-value with that for H

respective critical excluded volume 119887119888

119888= 1198870

178 cm3mol Another observation seems also interestingAuthors [25] have calculated (see Figure 3 in [25]) for theldquocompactrdquo clusters at 119897lowast = 07 05 045 the (119879lowast 120588lowast)-diagramof simple fluids One may note that only the value 119897lowast =

07 corresponds to the shape of strongly-curved diametershown in Figure 2 for the HPD while the smaller values119897lowast= 05 045 give the shape of HPD and the nearly rectilinear

diameter strongly resembling those obtained by the GEMC-simulations [6] for the complex ILrsquos force-field If this corre-spondence between the ldquofriablerdquo and ldquocompactrdquo clustering isnot accidental one obtains the unique possibility to connectthe measurable thermophysical properties with the bothcharacteristics of molecular structure in the framework ofFT-EOS

4 Comparison with the Empirical Tait EOSand Semiempirical Sanchez-Lacombe EOS

The empirical Tait EOS is based on the observation thatthe reciprocal of isothermal compressibility 120573minus1

119879for many

liquids is nearly linear in pressure at very high pressuresConsider

1 minus120588 (1198750 119879)

120588 (119875 119879)= 119862 (119879) ln [ 119861 (119879) + 119875

119861 (119879) + 1198750

] (26)

where some authors [14 19] omit the T-dependence incoefficient 119862 and ignore the value 119875

0asymp 0 [14] Such

restrictions transform the Tait EOS into the empirical formof two-parameter (119861(119879) 119862) PCS because the sets of 119862-values for different ILs become close one to another Forexample Machida et al [14] have found the sets C = 009710for [bmim][PF

6] C = 009358 for [bmim][BF

4] and C =

008961 for [bmim][OcSO4] which is rather close to the set

obtained by Matkowska and Hofman [19] C = 0088136 for[bmim][BF

4] and C = 00841547 for [bmim][MeSO

4] At

the same time Gu and Brennecke [3] have reported themuch larger T-dependent values 119862(298 2K) = 0 1829 and119862(323 2K) = 0 1630 for the same [bmim][PF

6]

Two other reasons of discrepancies in the Tait method-ology is the different approximations chosen by authors forthe reference input data 120588(119875

0 119879) and for the compound-

dependent function 119861(119879) Some authors [4 14 18] preferto fit the atmospheric isobars 120588(119875

0 119879) and 119862

119901(1198750 119879) with

a second-order or even third-order polynomial equationwhile the others [1 2 16 19] use a linear function for thisaim As a result the extrapolation ability to lower andhigher temperatures of different approximations becomesrestricted

119879and 120572

119875calculated by the Tait EOS (26)

The problem of their uncertainties becomes even morecomplex if one takes into account the often existence ofsystematic distinctions of as much as 05 between thedensities measured by different investigators even for thesimplest argon [23] Machida et al [14] for example pointedout the systematic deviations measured densities from thosereported by the de Azevedo et al [18] and Fredlake et al[1] for both [bmim][BF

4] and [bmim][PF

6] Matkowska and

Hofman [19] concluded that the discrepancies between thedifferent sets of calculated 120573

119879- and 120572

119875-derivatives increase

with increasing of 119879 and decreasing of 119875 due not only toexperimental differences in density values but also result fromthe fitting equation used The resultant situation is that theexpansivity 120572

119875of ILs reported in literature was either nearly

independent of T [18] or noticeably dependent of T [3 19]We can add to these observations that the linear in

molar (or specific) volume Tait Eos (26) is inadequate inrepresenting the curvature of the isotherm 119875(120588) at lowpressures It fails completely in description of (V 119897)-transitionwhere the more flexible function of volume is desirableHowever this has been clearly stated and explained by Streettfor liquid argon [23] that the adjustable T-dependence ofempirical EOS becomes the crucial factor in representing theexpansivity 120572

119875and especially heat capacities 119862

119875 119862V at high

pressures even if the reliable input data of sound velocity119882(119875 119879) were used

From such a viewpoint one may suppose that the linearin temperature LF-EOS proposed by Sanchez and Lacombe

119875 = minus1205882minus 119879[ln (1 minus 120588) + (1 minus 1

119873119897

)120588] (29)

is restricted to achieve the above goal but can be used as anyunified classical EOS common for both phases to predict theregion of their coexistence Such conjecture is confirmed bythe comparison of FT-EOSwith LF-EOS presented in Figures2 and 4 and discussed belowTheobvious advantage of formeris themore flexibleT-dependence expressed via the cohesive-energy coefficient 119886(119879) On the other hand the LF-EOS istypical form of EOS (see Section 1) in which the constraintof T-independent potential energy 119880( 119903 120588) is inherent [21]

Onemay consider it as the generalized variant of the well-known Bragg-Williams approximation for the ordinary LGpresented here in the dimensional form

It was compared with the simpler form of LF-EOS (29)Their predictions of the low-temperature density at saturation120588119897(119879) are comparable but unfortunately inaccurate (overesti-

mated) even for neutral low-molecular liquidsThe respectivepredictions of the vapor pressure 119875

120590(119879) are reasonable [15]

excepting the region of critical point for both EOSs Ourestimates based on the LF-EOS [14] shown in Figures 2 and 4are consistent with these conclusions

The comparison of volumetricmeasurements andderivedproperties [14 18] with the purely predictive (by the FT-EOS)and empirical (by the Tait EOS and LF-EOS) methodologiesused for [bmim][BF

4] is shown in Figures 6ndash9 Evidently

that former methodology is quite promising Machida et al[14] have reported two correlations of the same (119875 120588 119879)-data measured for [bmim][BF

4] at temperatures from 313 to

473 and pressures up to 200MPa To examine the trends inproperties of ILs with the common cation [bmim] the Taitempirical EOS was preliminarily fitted as the more appropri-ate model The estimate of its extrapolation capatibilities for(119875 120588 119879)-surface in the working range (290 lt 119879K lt 350)follows from the compatibility of experimental points (wherethose measured by de Azevedo et al [18] in the range oftemperature 298 lt 119879K lt 333 and pressure (01 lt 119875MPa lt60) were also included) with the thick curves in Figure 6 It isnoticeable for example that the extrapolated Taitrsquos isothermT = 290K coincides practically with isotherm T = 29834Kfrom [18] because the measured densities of latter source aresystematically higher than those from [14] Density data ofFredlake et al [1] for [bmim][BF

The consequence of such discrepancies is also typical forany simple liquids (Ar Kr Xe) [23] at moderate and highpressures It is impossible to reveal an actualT-dependence ofvolumetric (mechanical) derived functions 120572

119875 120574120588due to sys-

The Taitrsquos liquid has no trend to (V 119897)-transition (as well aspolymers) in opposite to the clear trends demonstrated byFT-EOS and LF-EOS One may suppose [26] a competitionbetween vaporization of IL (primarily driven by the isotropicdispersive attraction 1119903

6 in RPP) and chain formation(driven mainly by the anisotropic dipolar interactions 11199033)reflected by the Tait EOS fitted to the experimental data Ofcourse such conjecture must be at least confirmed by thecomputer simulations and FT-model provides this possibilityby the consistent estimate of RPP-parameters (120576 120590) at eachtemperature

The differences of calculated expansivity 120572119875in Figure 7

are especially interesting FT-EOS predicts even less variationof it with temperature than that for the Tait EOS This resultand crossing of 120572

119875(119875)-isotherms are qualitatively similar to

those obtained by de Azevedo et al [18] although the pressuredependence of allmechanical (120572

119875 120573119879 120574120588) and caloric (119862

119875 119862V)

derivatives (see Figures 10 11 and 12) is always more signifi-cant for the FT-EOSpredictions It seems that the curvature ofthe 120588(119879)-dependence following from the LF-EOS (29) is notsufficient to predict the 120572

119875(119875) behavior (Figure 7) correctly

The strong influence of the chosen input120588(1198750 119879)-dependence

is obvious from Figures 7ndash9The prediction of caloric derivatives (119862

119901 119862V 119862119901119862VGr)

is the most stringent test for any thermal (119875 120588 119879) EOSIt should be usually controlled [23] by the experimental(119882120588 119879)-surface to use the thermodynamical identities

into account the above distinction in the evaluated (120572119875 119875 119879)-

The remarkable qualitative and even quantitative (lt8)correspondence between the predicted by FT-EOS 119862V-valuesand those reported by de Azevedo et al [18] follows fromFigure 10 At the same time although the discrepanciesbetween 119862

119901-values [18] and those predicted by the FT-

EOS are again within acceptable limits (lt10) the formersdemonstrate the weak maximum and very small pressuredependence for [bmim][BF

4] (for [bmim][PF

6] this 119862

119901(119875)-

dependence is monotonous as well as that predicted by theFT-EOS) It seems that the resultant ratio of heat capacity119862119901119862V shown in Figure 12 which demonstrates the irregular

crossing of isotherms [18] is questionable It suggests thattheir pressure dependence either needs the more accurateapproximation or reflects the realistic distinction of referenceFT-EOS from the actual behavior of [bmim][BF

4]

The lock of noticeable variations in pressure is thecommon feature of integration methodology [18] based onthe given (119882119875 119879)- and (120588 119875 119879)-surfaces The unavoidableaccumulation of uncertainties at each stage of calculationsin the set 119882 minus 119862

119901minus 119862V may cause the unplausible behavior

of adiabatic exponent 119862119901119862V in liquid The same is true for

the set 119862V minus 119862119901 minus 119882 used in the FT-methodology It is themost appropriate explanation of significant discrepancies for119882(119875)-dependence shown in Figure 13 Let us remind alsothat the precise mechanical measurements of speed velocity[18] in the very viscous IL cannot be attributed exactly to thecondition of constant entropy

Thus strictly speaking the measured (119882119875 119879)-surfacereflects the strong dispersive properties of media andmust beless than its thermodynamic counterpart in the ideal (withouta viscosity) liquid

5 Conclusions

There are the structure-forming factors related to the above-discussed thermodynamic characteristic Despite the certaindiscrepancies between the predicted and derived propertiesfor FT-EOS and LF-EOS both ones provide the close esti-mates of structure factors represented in Table 5

Our aim here is to show that the thermodynamically-consistent predictions of thermodynamical properties by theFT-EOS yields also the molecular-based parameters whichare at least realistic (see also Table 3) The estimate ofaverage T-dependent well-depth 120576 by (6b) as well as estimateof average value 119873

119897by (24a) is related to the middle of

temperature range T = 320K The distinction of 120576 from therespective 120576lowast-parameters of LF-EOS [14] can be attributedto the difference between nonbonded interactions in thediscrete (LF-EOS) and continuum (FT-EOS) models of fluidOur estimate of cohesive-energy density 120576coh by equality

120576coh = 1205882(1198750 119879) 119886 (119879) + 120588

119897(119879) 119903120590(119879) (43)

represented in Table 6 seems also physically plausible Mag-inn et al [5 6] have determined it within the frameworkof GEMC-simulations by the knowledge of 120588(119875

0 119879) and

the internal energy difference between an ideal-gas ion pairand the average internal energy of an ion pair in the liquidstate

Such definition indicates that cohesive energy densitiesof many ILs are on the order of 500ndash550 Jcm3 (see forcomparison Table 6) and demonstrate a slight decrease astemperature increases

Another relevant characteristic is the internal pressuredetermined by the derivative of molar (or specific) internalenergy

which is compared to ones calculated by different authors [1416] for [bmim][BF

EOS predicts the much faster change of both cohesive energydensity 120576coh and internal pressure (120597119890120597V)

119879as temperature

increasesOne should collect a large number of precise exper-

imental measurements to reconstruct the thermodynamicsurface of a substance FT-methodology provides a possibilityof preliminary reliable estimates of relevant macroscopicandmolecular-based correlations Its thermodynamic consis-tency provides the serious advantage in comparison with thepurely empiric treatment of any volumetric measurements atthe description of derived heat capacities

Such approachwas proposed recently [7 8] to reconstructthe hypothetical (V 119897)-diagram of any ILs in its stable andmetastable regions on the base of only standard reference dataon density 120588(119879) at119875

unknown value of the excluded volume 1198870 To our knowledge

this is first attempt to predict simultaneously the wholeset of one-phase and two-phase properties for ILs withoutthe fit at any other pressures including the negative ones Itwas argued that the particular low-temperature variant ofthe most general FT-EOS [9ndash12] should be used to obtainthe consistent prediction of volumetric properties and thestandard response functions 119886

changeable sign of two thermal derivatives 120572119875 120574120588offers

a possibility to predict the properties of anomalous low-temperature substances (such aswater for example) too [7 8]

Fortunately we have obtained now [13ndash19] a possibilityto test our predictions not only by the direct experimentalone-phase data [14 16 18 19] on 120588(119875 119879)- and 119882(119875 119879)-surfaces Another possibility is offered by comparison of thepredictions obtained by FT-EOS for the critical parametersof ILs ([bmim][BF

some guarantee of their reliability while119879119888and119875119888from [6] are

significantly overestimated and underestimated respectivelyInterestingly the known descriptive factor of compressibility

the fit to (119875 120588 119879)-experimental data for [bmim][BF4] and

[bmim][PF6] provide the structural estimates of hard-core

volume number of lattice sites in a cluster and energyof near-neighbor pair interactions which are surprisinglyclose to ones independently predicted by the FT-model of acontinuum substance

Taking into account the compatibility of above results itis important to consider the presumable similarity betweenthe square-well fluid (which may be thought of as a con-tinuum analogue of the lattice-gas (LG) or lattice-fluid (LF)systems) on the one hand and the LJ-fluid of finite-rangeinteractions (RPP) on the other This conceptual analogy hasbeen pointed out long ago for the critical region by Widom[21] who suggested that it is the propagation of attractivecorrelations in the LG which determines the peculiarities ofcriticality However such unphysical LG-predictions at lowtemperatures of the (120588 119879)-plane as the nonexistence of a (119897 119904)-transition suggest that repulsive forces are not being treatedproperly by this RPP-model In contrast with the discreteLG-model it seems that both attractive and repulsive forcesare being dealt with properly in the square-well continuumfluid because it exhibits both (V 119897)- and (119897 119904)-transitionsThe serious restriction of latter is however evident sinceany singularities of RPP imply an artificial jump of pair-distribution isotropic function 119892(119903) at the point of cutoffradius 119903

119888for attractive interactions

In this context only the shifted and smoothed at 119903119888-

point LJ-potential [5 6] seems to be appropriate as RPP fora continuum system Of course the algebraic form of therespective reference EOS is essential too In accordance withthe statistical-mechanical arguments presented by Widom[21] there are the set of alternative forms including theoriginal vdW-EOS and the LG-EOS in thewell-knownBragg-Williams approximation which share the common restrictivefeature Onemay suppose that the probability of finding someprescribed value of the potential energy 119880( 119903) at an arbitrarypoint in the fluid is independent of 119879 at fixed 120588 119880( 119903 120588)Another simplifying assumption is that such EOS supposesonly two types of fluid structure one of the excluded (or hard-core) volume 119873V

0where the singular hard-sphere branch of

potential is infinite and one of free volume (119881 minus 119873V0) where

the potential is uniform weak and unrestricted (an infinite-range rectilinear well) It should be directly proportional todensity 119890 = 119880119873 = minus119886120588 where 119880 is the total configurationalenergy and 119886 is the constant vdW-coefficientThese historicalnotes are important to explain how one can go beyond theabove restriction of119879-independency by adoption of linear 120588-dependence for a generalized specific or molar energy (seealso (8) below) Consider

Another aim of the developed FT-EOS follows from thepossibility [7] to estimate the effective LJ-parameters withoutany fit Indeed their general T-dependent values

are determined simply in the low-temperature range of allILs where 119887

0is constant in ((1)ndash(4)) while the compressibility

factor of saturated liquid 119885119897= 119875120590(120588119897119877119879) becomes negligible

as well as the vapor pressure 119875120590(119879) trends to zero Taking into

account this asymptotic behavior it is especially importantto study the possible correlations of these parameters in theRPP-model of an effective LJ-potential for ILs as the functionsof total molecular weight 119872 This concept is unusual forthe conventional consideration of a separate influence of theanionrsquos 119872

119886and cationrsquos 119872

119888components It may provide in

principle the useful insight the nature of (V 119897)-transition inILs by effective capturing underlying pair interactions

The distinction of both FT-EOS and LF-EOS [14] fromthe conventional hard-sphere reference EOS is crucial toprovide the quantitative description of one-phase liquid Theformers include the quadratic in density contribution whichis dominating at high pressures along the isotherms Thelatter considers this term as a small vdW-perturbation for thehard-sphere EOS Such perturbation approach is not directlyapplicable to associating fluids such as water and alcoholsfor which presence of hydrogen bonding anisotropic dipolar11199033 or coulombic 1119903 interactions in addition to isotropic

dispersive 11199036 attractions is inconsistent with the main

assumption of the perturbation methodology that the struc-ture of a liquid is dominated by repulsive forces [15]

The FT-model promotes the more flexible approach inwhich the above factors of attraction and clustering can beeffectively accounted by the 119886(119879)-dependence It was firstlyconfirmed by Longuet-Higgins and Widom and then bymany authors that a combination of Carnahan-Starling EOSfor example with the vdW-perturbation 1198861205882 is a reasonableapproximation for the 119897- and 119904-phases but not the V-phaseGuggenheim [20] has concluded its applicability only to aliquid when large clusters are more important than smallclusters (ie at low temperatures 119879

Since the low-temperature compressibility factor 119885119897(119879) is

very small for all discussed liquids their dispersive energies120576(119879) (molecular attractionrsquos parameters) are comparable inaccordance with (6b) However the differences in cohesiveenergies 119886(119879) (collective attractionrsquos parameters) between thelow-molecular substances (C

2H4 H2O) and ILs are striking

as it follows from Tables 1 and 2 The physical nature of such

distinction can be at the first glance attributed to omittedin the reference LJ-potential influence of intramolecularforce-field parameters and anisotropic (dipole-dipole andcoulombic) interactions At the same time one must accountthe collective macroscopic nature of 119886(119879)-parameter It cor-responds to the scales which are compatible or larger thanthe thermodynamic correlation length 120585(120588 119879) FT-model[9ndash12] provides an elegant and simple estimation of thiseffective parameter based on the concept of comparabilitybetween energetic and geometric characteristic of force fielddetermined by the given RPP Consider

represented in Table 3 Both (119879 120588) (Figure 2) and (119875 119879)(Figure 4) projections contain also the branches of classi-cal spinodal calculated by the LF (Sanchez-Lacombe)-EOSobtained in [14] Its top is the location of a respective criticalpoint It seems that the relatively close (119875

of scaling theory but it corresponds to the PCS-concept ofsimilarity between two substances (H

eg) if their 119885119888-values are close On the other side the

scaling hypothesis of universality is confirmed by the FT-EOSrsquo estimates in the nonclassical critical vapor phase Forthe set of low-molecular-weight substances studied in [9](Ar C

2H4 CO2 H2O) for example one obtains by (25b)

the common estimate (119873119888119892asymp 25) which shows a significant

associative near-mean-field behaviorIt is worthwhile to note here the correspondence of

some FT-EOSrsquo-estimates with the set of GEMC-simulated

of its 119885119888-value with that for H

07 corresponds to the shape of strongly-curved diametershown in Figure 2 for the HPD while the smaller values119897lowast= 05 045 give the shape of HPD and the nearly rectilinear

diameter strongly resembling those obtained by the GEMC-simulations [6] for the complex ILrsquos force-field If this corre-spondence between the ldquofriablerdquo and ldquocompactrdquo clustering isnot accidental one obtains the unique possibility to connectthe measurable thermophysical properties with the bothcharacteristics of molecular structure in the framework ofFT-EOS

restrictions transform the Tait EOS into the empirical formof two-parameter (119861(119879) 119862) PCS because the sets of 119862-values for different ILs become close one to another Forexample Machida et al [14] have found the sets C = 009710for [bmim][PF

Two other reasons of discrepancies in the Tait method-ology is the different approximations chosen by authors forthe reference input data 120588(119875

0 119879) and for the compound-

dependent function 119861(119879) Some authors [4 14 18] preferto fit the atmospheric isobars 120588(119875

0 119879) and 119862

119901(1198750 119879) with

a second-order or even third-order polynomial equationwhile the others [1 2 16 19] use a linear function for thisaim As a result the extrapolation ability to lower andhigher temperatures of different approximations becomesrestricted

119861(119879) (so authors [14] have used the exponential form whileauthors [19] have preferred the linear form) may distortthe derivatives 120573

119879and 120572

119875calculated by the Tait EOS (26)

The problem of their uncertainties becomes even morecomplex if one takes into account the often existence ofsystematic distinctions of as much as 05 between thedensities measured by different investigators even for thesimplest argon [23] Machida et al [14] for example pointedout the systematic deviations measured densities from thosereported by the de Azevedo et al [18] and Fredlake et al[1] for both [bmim][BF

4] and [bmim][PF

6] Matkowska and

Hofman [19] concluded that the discrepancies between thedifferent sets of calculated 120573

119879- and 120572

119875-derivatives increase

with increasing of 119879 and decreasing of 119875 due not only toexperimental differences in density values but also result fromthe fitting equation used The resultant situation is that theexpansivity 120572

119875of ILs reported in literature was either nearly

independent of T [18] or noticeably dependent of T [3 19]We can add to these observations that the linear in

molar (or specific) volume Tait Eos (26) is inadequate inrepresenting the curvature of the isotherm 119875(120588) at lowpressures It fails completely in description of (V 119897)-transitionwhere the more flexible function of volume is desirableHowever this has been clearly stated and explained by Streettfor liquid argon [23] that the adjustable T-dependence ofempirical EOS becomes the crucial factor in representing theexpansivity 120572

119875and especially heat capacities 119862

119875 119862V at high

pressures even if the reliable input data of sound velocity119882(119875 119879) were used

From such a viewpoint one may suppose that the linearin temperature LF-EOS proposed by Sanchez and Lacombe

119875 = minus1205882minus 119879[ln (1 minus 120588) + (1 minus 1

119873119897

)120588] (29)

is restricted to achieve the above goal but can be used as anyunified classical EOS common for both phases to predict theregion of their coexistence Such conjecture is confirmed bythe comparison of FT-EOSwith LF-EOS presented in Figures2 and 4 and discussed belowTheobvious advantage of formeris themore flexibleT-dependence expressed via the cohesive-energy coefficient 119886(119879) On the other hand the LF-EOS istypical form of EOS (see Section 1) in which the constraintof T-independent potential energy 119880( 119903 120588) is inherent [21]

Onemay consider it as the generalized variant of the well-known Bragg-Williams approximation for the ordinary LGpresented here in the dimensional form

It was compared with the simpler form of LF-EOS (29)Their predictions of the low-temperature density at saturation120588119897(119879) are comparable but unfortunately inaccurate (overesti-

mated) even for neutral low-molecular liquidsThe respectivepredictions of the vapor pressure 119875

120590(119879) are reasonable [15]

excepting the region of critical point for both EOSs Ourestimates based on the LF-EOS [14] shown in Figures 2 and 4are consistent with these conclusions

The comparison of volumetricmeasurements andderivedproperties [14 18] with the purely predictive (by the FT-EOS)and empirical (by the Tait EOS and LF-EOS) methodologiesused for [bmim][BF

4] is shown in Figures 6ndash9 Evidently

that former methodology is quite promising Machida et al[14] have reported two correlations of the same (119875 120588 119879)-data measured for [bmim][BF

4] at temperatures from 313 to

473 and pressures up to 200MPa To examine the trends inproperties of ILs with the common cation [bmim] the Taitempirical EOS was preliminarily fitted as the more appropri-ate model The estimate of its extrapolation capatibilities for(119875 120588 119879)-surface in the working range (290 lt 119879K lt 350)follows from the compatibility of experimental points (wherethose measured by de Azevedo et al [18] in the range oftemperature 298 lt 119879K lt 333 and pressure (01 lt 119875MPa lt60) were also included) with the thick curves in Figure 6 It isnoticeable for example that the extrapolated Taitrsquos isothermT = 290K coincides practically with isotherm T = 29834Kfrom [18] because the measured densities of latter source aresystematically higher than those from [14] Density data ofFredlake et al [1] for [bmim][BF

The consequence of such discrepancies is also typical forany simple liquids (Ar Kr Xe) [23] at moderate and highpressures It is impossible to reveal an actualT-dependence ofvolumetric (mechanical) derived functions 120572

119875 120574120588due to sys-

tematic deviations between the data of different investigatorsIn such situation an attempt ldquoto take the bull by the hornsrdquoand to claim the preferable variant of EOS based exclusivelyon volumetric data may be erroneous Indeed since the TaitEOS is explicit in density while the LF-EOSmdashin temperaturethe direct calculation of 120572

et al [18] (points) on the base of speed velocity and density inputdata

The Taitrsquos liquid has no trend to (V 119897)-transition (as well aspolymers) in opposite to the clear trends demonstrated byFT-EOS and LF-EOS One may suppose [26] a competitionbetween vaporization of IL (primarily driven by the isotropicdispersive attraction 1119903

6 in RPP) and chain formation(driven mainly by the anisotropic dipolar interactions 11199033)reflected by the Tait EOS fitted to the experimental data Ofcourse such conjecture must be at least confirmed by thecomputer simulations and FT-model provides this possibilityby the consistent estimate of RPP-parameters (120576 120590) at eachtemperature

The differences of calculated expansivity 120572119875in Figure 7

are especially interesting FT-EOS predicts even less variationof it with temperature than that for the Tait EOS This resultand crossing of 120572

119875(119875)-isotherms are qualitatively similar to

those obtained by de Azevedo et al [18] although the pressuredependence of allmechanical (120572

119875 120573119879 120574120588) and caloric (119862

119875 119862V)

derivatives (see Figures 10 11 and 12) is always more signifi-cant for the FT-EOSpredictions It seems that the curvature ofthe 120588(119879)-dependence following from the LF-EOS (29) is notsufficient to predict the 120572

119875(119875) behavior (Figure 7) correctly

The strong influence of the chosen input120588(1198750 119879)-dependence

is obvious from Figures 7ndash9The prediction of caloric derivatives (119862

119901 119862V 119862119901119862VGr)

is the most stringent test for any thermal (119875 120588 119879) EOSIt should be usually controlled [23] by the experimental(119882120588 119879)-surface to use the thermodynamical identities

between about 100 and 120MPa for [bmim][BF4] Taking

into account the above distinction in the evaluated (120572119875 119875 119879)-

The remarkable qualitative and even quantitative (lt8)correspondence between the predicted by FT-EOS 119862V-valuesand those reported by de Azevedo et al [18] follows fromFigure 10 At the same time although the discrepanciesbetween 119862

119901-values [18] and those predicted by the FT-

EOS are again within acceptable limits (lt10) the formersdemonstrate the weak maximum and very small pressuredependence for [bmim][BF

4] (for [bmim][PF

6] this 119862

119901(119875)-

dependence is monotonous as well as that predicted by theFT-EOS) It seems that the resultant ratio of heat capacity119862119901119862V shown in Figure 12 which demonstrates the irregular

crossing of isotherms [18] is questionable It suggests thattheir pressure dependence either needs the more accurateapproximation or reflects the realistic distinction of referenceFT-EOS from the actual behavior of [bmim][BF

4]

The lock of noticeable variations in pressure is thecommon feature of integration methodology [18] based onthe given (119882119875 119879)- and (120588 119875 119879)-surfaces The unavoidableaccumulation of uncertainties at each stage of calculationsin the set 119882 minus 119862

119901minus 119862V may cause the unplausible behavior

of adiabatic exponent 119862119901119862V in liquid The same is true for

the set 119862V minus 119862119901 minus 119882 used in the FT-methodology It is themost appropriate explanation of significant discrepancies for119882(119875)-dependence shown in Figure 13 Let us remind alsothat the precise mechanical measurements of speed velocity[18] in the very viscous IL cannot be attributed exactly to thecondition of constant entropy

Thus strictly speaking the measured (119882119875 119879)-surfacereflects the strong dispersive properties of media andmust beless than its thermodynamic counterpart in the ideal (withouta viscosity) liquid

5 Conclusions

There are the structure-forming factors related to the above-discussed thermodynamic characteristic Despite the certaindiscrepancies between the predicted and derived propertiesfor FT-EOS and LF-EOS both ones provide the close esti-mates of structure factors represented in Table 5

Our aim here is to show that the thermodynamically-consistent predictions of thermodynamical properties by theFT-EOS yields also the molecular-based parameters whichare at least realistic (see also Table 3) The estimate ofaverage T-dependent well-depth 120576 by (6b) as well as estimateof average value 119873

119897by (24a) is related to the middle of

temperature range T = 320K The distinction of 120576 from therespective 120576lowast-parameters of LF-EOS [14] can be attributedto the difference between nonbonded interactions in thediscrete (LF-EOS) and continuum (FT-EOS) models of fluidOur estimate of cohesive-energy density 120576coh by equality

120576coh = 1205882(1198750 119879) 119886 (119879) + 120588

119897(119879) 119903120590(119879) (43)

represented in Table 6 seems also physically plausible Mag-inn et al [5 6] have determined it within the frameworkof GEMC-simulations by the knowledge of 120588(119875

0 119879) and

the internal energy difference between an ideal-gas ion pairand the average internal energy of an ion pair in the liquidstate

Such definition indicates that cohesive energy densitiesof many ILs are on the order of 500ndash550 Jcm3 (see forcomparison Table 6) and demonstrate a slight decrease astemperature increases

Another relevant characteristic is the internal pressuredetermined by the derivative of molar (or specific) internalenergy

are determined simply in the low-temperature range of allILs where 119887

0is constant in ((1)ndash(4)) while the compressibility

factor of saturated liquid 119885119897= 119875120590(120588119897119877119879) becomes negligible

as well as the vapor pressure 119875120590(119879) trends to zero Taking into

account this asymptotic behavior it is especially importantto study the possible correlations of these parameters in theRPP-model of an effective LJ-potential for ILs as the functionsof total molecular weight 119872 This concept is unusual forthe conventional consideration of a separate influence of theanionrsquos 119872

119886and cationrsquos 119872

119888components It may provide in

principle the useful insight the nature of (V 119897)-transition inILs by effective capturing underlying pair interactions

The distinction of both FT-EOS and LF-EOS [14] fromthe conventional hard-sphere reference EOS is crucial toprovide the quantitative description of one-phase liquid Theformers include the quadratic in density contribution whichis dominating at high pressures along the isotherms Thelatter considers this term as a small vdW-perturbation for thehard-sphere EOS Such perturbation approach is not directlyapplicable to associating fluids such as water and alcoholsfor which presence of hydrogen bonding anisotropic dipolar11199033 or coulombic 1119903 interactions in addition to isotropic

dispersive 11199036 attractions is inconsistent with the main

assumption of the perturbation methodology that the struc-ture of a liquid is dominated by repulsive forces [15]

The FT-model promotes the more flexible approach inwhich the above factors of attraction and clustering can beeffectively accounted by the 119886(119879)-dependence It was firstlyconfirmed by Longuet-Higgins and Widom and then bymany authors that a combination of Carnahan-Starling EOSfor example with the vdW-perturbation 1198861205882 is a reasonableapproximation for the 119897- and 119904-phases but not the V-phaseGuggenheim [20] has concluded its applicability only to aliquid when large clusters are more important than smallclusters (ie at low temperatures 119879

119898lt 119879 lt 119879

contrast with this observation the general FT-EOS providesthe adequate representation of entire subcritical range 119879

119888 119879119888is only an approximation at

best and cannot provide more than qualitative agreementwith experiment even for spherical molecules However itwas proved recently [9ndash12] that the general FT-EOS withthree 119879-dependent coefficients

This fundamental ratio of the (V 119897)-latent heat to the ther-modynamic work of (V 119897)-expansion is the main parameterof FT-coefficients determined by ((8)-(9)) It should be calcu-lated separately in each of high-temperature (119879

Step 3 (119860-variant of 119909(119879)-prediction [7 8]) To calculate itsvalues one must obtain two densities 120588plusmn (at the assumption119875120590asymp 0) from equation

where 120588 = 120588(119879 1198750) 1198850

= 1198750120588119877119879 and the 120588

Step 6 (119861-variant of 119909(119879)-prediction) To control the con-sistency of methodology one may use instead of Step 3 (119860-variant) the same equation (17) with the approximate equality120588119897(119879) asymp 120588

Step 7 The self-consistent prediction of a hypothetical(V 119897)-diagram requires the equilibration of CXC-pressures119875120590(119879 120588119892) = 119875120590(119879 120588119897) by FT-EOS (1) with the necessary final

change in 1198860(119879)-value from (19) to satisfy the equality

Since the low-temperature compressibility factor 119885119897(119879) is

very small for all discussed liquids their dispersive energies120576(119879) (molecular attractionrsquos parameters) are comparable inaccordance with (6b) However the differences in cohesiveenergies 119886(119879) (collective attractionrsquos parameters) between thelow-molecular substances (C

as it follows from Tables 1 and 2 The physical nature of such

distinction can be at the first glance attributed to omittedin the reference LJ-potential influence of intramolecularforce-field parameters and anisotropic (dipole-dipole andcoulombic) interactions At the same time one must accountthe collective macroscopic nature of 119886(119879)-parameter It cor-responds to the scales which are compatible or larger thanthe thermodynamic correlation length 120585(120588 119879) FT-model[9ndash12] provides an elegant and simple estimation of thiseffective parameter based on the concept of comparabilitybetween energetic and geometric characteristic of force fielddetermined by the given RPP Consider

and caloric (119862119901 119862V) derived quantities Simultaneously an

account of internal degrees of freedom and anisotropy by theperturbed RPP may change the correlation length itself

The above described by ((12)ndash(20)) FT-methodology hasbeen used to reconstruct the hypothetical phase diagram(HPD) for [bmim][BF

4] shown in Figures 2 3 and 4 and

represented in Table 3 Both (119879 120588) (Figure 2) and (119875 119879)(Figure 4) projections contain also the branches of classi-cal spinodal calculated by the LF (Sanchez-Lacombe)-EOSobtained in [14] Its top is the location of a respective criticalpoint It seems that the relatively close (119875

119888 119879119888)-parameters

predicted independently by FT-EOS and by LF-EOS (seeSection 1) are reasonable

The FT-model provides a possibility to estimate sep-arately the coordination numbers of LJ-particles in theorthobaric liquid 120588

119897(119879)- and vapor 120588

119892(119879)-phases An ability

to form the respective ldquofriablerdquo (119873119897119892+ 1)-clusters is defined

by the ratio of effective cohesive anddispersivemolar energiesat any subcritical temperature Consider

The crucial influence of excluded-volume in (24a) andits relative irrelevance in (24b) for 119873

119897119892-predictions are illus-

trated by Figure 5 where119873119897(119879) function is shown also for the

entire l-branch based on the evaluated in the present workHPD For comparison the low-temperature ability to formthe (119873

119897+ 1)-clusters in liquid water [7 24] is represented in

Figure 5 tooIn according with ((25a) (25b)) the ldquofriablerdquo clusters

can exist only as dimers in the classical critical liquid phase(119873119888

119897asymp 1) It is not universal property in the meaning

of scaling theory but it corresponds to the PCS-concept ofsimilarity between two substances (H

2O and [C

4mim][BF

4]

eg) if their 119885119888-values are close On the other side the

scaling hypothesis of universality is confirmed by the FT-EOSrsquo estimates in the nonclassical critical vapor phase Forthe set of low-molecular-weight substances studied in [9](Ar C

2H4 CO2 H2O) for example one obtains by (25b)

the common estimate (119873119888119892asymp 25) which shows a significant

associative near-mean-field behaviorIt is worthwhile to note here the correspondence of

some FT-EOSrsquo-estimates with the set of GEMC-simulated

results One may use the approximate estimate of criticalslope 119860

119888asymp 786 [9] for [bmim][BF

4] based on the similarity

of its 119885119888-value with that for H

119888= 1198870

178 cm3mol Another observation seems also interestingAuthors [25] have calculated (see Figure 3 in [25]) for theldquocompactrdquo clusters at 119897lowast = 07 05 045 the (119879lowast 120588lowast)-diagramof simple fluids One may note that only the value 119897lowast =

07 corresponds to the shape of strongly-curved diametershown in Figure 2 for the HPD while the smaller values119897lowast= 05 045 give the shape of HPD and the nearly rectilinear

diameter strongly resembling those obtained by the GEMC-simulations [6] for the complex ILrsquos force-field If this corre-spondence between the ldquofriablerdquo and ldquocompactrdquo clustering isnot accidental one obtains the unique possibility to connectthe measurable thermophysical properties with the bothcharacteristics of molecular structure in the framework ofFT-EOS

4 Comparison with the Empirical Tait EOSand Semiempirical Sanchez-Lacombe EOS

The empirical Tait EOS is based on the observation thatthe reciprocal of isothermal compressibility 120573minus1

119879for many

liquids is nearly linear in pressure at very high pressuresConsider

1 minus120588 (1198750 119879)

120588 (119875 119879)= 119862 (119879) ln [ 119861 (119879) + 119875

119861 (119879) + 1198750

] (26)

where some authors [14 19] omit the T-dependence incoefficient 119862 and ignore the value 119875

0asymp 0 [14] Such

restrictions transform the Tait EOS into the empirical formof two-parameter (119861(119879) 119862) PCS because the sets of 119862-values for different ILs become close one to another Forexample Machida et al [14] have found the sets C = 009710for [bmim][PF

6] C = 009358 for [bmim][BF

4] and C =

008961 for [bmim][OcSO4] which is rather close to the set

obtained by Matkowska and Hofman [19] C = 0088136 for[bmim][BF

4] and C = 00841547 for [bmim][MeSO

4] At

the same time Gu and Brennecke [3] have reported themuch larger T-dependent values 119862(298 2K) = 0 1829 and119862(323 2K) = 0 1630 for the same [bmim][PF

6]

Two other reasons of discrepancies in the Tait method-ology is the different approximations chosen by authors forthe reference input data 120588(119875

0 119879) and for the compound-

dependent function 119861(119879) Some authors [4 14 18] preferto fit the atmospheric isobars 120588(119875

0 119879) and 119862

119901(1198750 119879) with

a second-order or even third-order polynomial equationwhile the others [1 2 16 19] use a linear function for thisaim As a result the extrapolation ability to lower andhigher temperatures of different approximations becomesrestricted

119879and 120572

119875calculated by the Tait EOS (26)

The problem of their uncertainties becomes even morecomplex if one takes into account the often existence ofsystematic distinctions of as much as 05 between thedensities measured by different investigators even for thesimplest argon [23] Machida et al [14] for example pointedout the systematic deviations measured densities from thosereported by the de Azevedo et al [18] and Fredlake et al[1] for both [bmim][BF

4] and [bmim][PF

6] Matkowska and

Hofman [19] concluded that the discrepancies between thedifferent sets of calculated 120573

119879- and 120572

119875-derivatives increase

with increasing of 119879 and decreasing of 119875 due not only toexperimental differences in density values but also result fromthe fitting equation used The resultant situation is that theexpansivity 120572

119875of ILs reported in literature was either nearly

independent of T [18] or noticeably dependent of T [3 19]We can add to these observations that the linear in

molar (or specific) volume Tait Eos (26) is inadequate inrepresenting the curvature of the isotherm 119875(120588) at lowpressures It fails completely in description of (V 119897)-transitionwhere the more flexible function of volume is desirableHowever this has been clearly stated and explained by Streettfor liquid argon [23] that the adjustable T-dependence ofempirical EOS becomes the crucial factor in representing theexpansivity 120572

119875and especially heat capacities 119862

119875 119862V at high

pressures even if the reliable input data of sound velocity119882(119875 119879) were used

From such a viewpoint one may suppose that the linearin temperature LF-EOS proposed by Sanchez and Lacombe

119875 = minus1205882minus 119879[ln (1 minus 120588) + (1 minus 1

119873119897

)120588] (29)

is restricted to achieve the above goal but can be used as anyunified classical EOS common for both phases to predict theregion of their coexistence Such conjecture is confirmed bythe comparison of FT-EOSwith LF-EOS presented in Figures2 and 4 and discussed belowTheobvious advantage of formeris themore flexibleT-dependence expressed via the cohesive-energy coefficient 119886(119879) On the other hand the LF-EOS istypical form of EOS (see Section 1) in which the constraintof T-independent potential energy 119880( 119903 120588) is inherent [21]

Onemay consider it as the generalized variant of the well-known Bragg-Williams approximation for the ordinary LGpresented here in the dimensional form

It was compared with the simpler form of LF-EOS (29)Their predictions of the low-temperature density at saturation120588119897(119879) are comparable but unfortunately inaccurate (overesti-

mated) even for neutral low-molecular liquidsThe respectivepredictions of the vapor pressure 119875

120590(119879) are reasonable [15]

excepting the region of critical point for both EOSs Ourestimates based on the LF-EOS [14] shown in Figures 2 and 4are consistent with these conclusions

The comparison of volumetricmeasurements andderivedproperties [14 18] with the purely predictive (by the FT-EOS)and empirical (by the Tait EOS and LF-EOS) methodologiesused for [bmim][BF

4] is shown in Figures 6ndash9 Evidently

that former methodology is quite promising Machida et al[14] have reported two correlations of the same (119875 120588 119879)-data measured for [bmim][BF

4] at temperatures from 313 to

473 and pressures up to 200MPa To examine the trends inproperties of ILs with the common cation [bmim] the Taitempirical EOS was preliminarily fitted as the more appropri-ate model The estimate of its extrapolation capatibilities for(119875 120588 119879)-surface in the working range (290 lt 119879K lt 350)follows from the compatibility of experimental points (wherethose measured by de Azevedo et al [18] in the range oftemperature 298 lt 119879K lt 333 and pressure (01 lt 119875MPa lt60) were also included) with the thick curves in Figure 6 It isnoticeable for example that the extrapolated Taitrsquos isothermT = 290K coincides practically with isotherm T = 29834Kfrom [18] because the measured densities of latter source aresystematically higher than those from [14] Density data ofFredlake et al [1] for [bmim][BF

The consequence of such discrepancies is also typical forany simple liquids (Ar Kr Xe) [23] at moderate and highpressures It is impossible to reveal an actualT-dependence ofvolumetric (mechanical) derived functions 120572

119875 120574120588due to sys-

The Taitrsquos liquid has no trend to (V 119897)-transition (as well aspolymers) in opposite to the clear trends demonstrated byFT-EOS and LF-EOS One may suppose [26] a competitionbetween vaporization of IL (primarily driven by the isotropicdispersive attraction 1119903

6 in RPP) and chain formation(driven mainly by the anisotropic dipolar interactions 11199033)reflected by the Tait EOS fitted to the experimental data Ofcourse such conjecture must be at least confirmed by thecomputer simulations and FT-model provides this possibilityby the consistent estimate of RPP-parameters (120576 120590) at eachtemperature

The differences of calculated expansivity 120572119875in Figure 7

are especially interesting FT-EOS predicts even less variationof it with temperature than that for the Tait EOS This resultand crossing of 120572

119875(119875)-isotherms are qualitatively similar to

those obtained by de Azevedo et al [18] although the pressuredependence of allmechanical (120572

119875 120573119879 120574120588) and caloric (119862

119875 119862V)

derivatives (see Figures 10 11 and 12) is always more signifi-cant for the FT-EOSpredictions It seems that the curvature ofthe 120588(119879)-dependence following from the LF-EOS (29) is notsufficient to predict the 120572

119875(119875) behavior (Figure 7) correctly

The strong influence of the chosen input120588(1198750 119879)-dependence

is obvious from Figures 7ndash9The prediction of caloric derivatives (119862

119901 119862V 119862119901119862VGr)

is the most stringent test for any thermal (119875 120588 119879) EOSIt should be usually controlled [23] by the experimental(119882120588 119879)-surface to use the thermodynamical identities

The remarkable qualitative and even quantitative (lt8)correspondence between the predicted by FT-EOS 119862V-valuesand those reported by de Azevedo et al [18] follows fromFigure 10 At the same time although the discrepanciesbetween 119862

119901-values [18] and those predicted by the FT-

EOS are again within acceptable limits (lt10) the formersdemonstrate the weak maximum and very small pressuredependence for [bmim][BF

4] (for [bmim][PF

6] this 119862

119901(119875)-

dependence is monotonous as well as that predicted by theFT-EOS) It seems that the resultant ratio of heat capacity119862119901119862V shown in Figure 12 which demonstrates the irregular

crossing of isotherms [18] is questionable It suggests thattheir pressure dependence either needs the more accurateapproximation or reflects the realistic distinction of referenceFT-EOS from the actual behavior of [bmim][BF

4]

The lock of noticeable variations in pressure is thecommon feature of integration methodology [18] based onthe given (119882119875 119879)- and (120588 119875 119879)-surfaces The unavoidableaccumulation of uncertainties at each stage of calculationsin the set 119882 minus 119862

119901minus 119862V may cause the unplausible behavior

of adiabatic exponent 119862119901119862V in liquid The same is true for

the set 119862V minus 119862119901 minus 119882 used in the FT-methodology It is themost appropriate explanation of significant discrepancies for119882(119875)-dependence shown in Figure 13 Let us remind alsothat the precise mechanical measurements of speed velocity[18] in the very viscous IL cannot be attributed exactly to thecondition of constant entropy

Thus strictly speaking the measured (119882119875 119879)-surfacereflects the strong dispersive properties of media andmust beless than its thermodynamic counterpart in the ideal (withouta viscosity) liquid

5 Conclusions

There are the structure-forming factors related to the above-discussed thermodynamic characteristic Despite the certaindiscrepancies between the predicted and derived propertiesfor FT-EOS and LF-EOS both ones provide the close esti-mates of structure factors represented in Table 5

Our aim here is to show that the thermodynamically-consistent predictions of thermodynamical properties by theFT-EOS yields also the molecular-based parameters whichare at least realistic (see also Table 3) The estimate ofaverage T-dependent well-depth 120576 by (6b) as well as estimateof average value 119873

119897by (24a) is related to the middle of

temperature range T = 320K The distinction of 120576 from therespective 120576lowast-parameters of LF-EOS [14] can be attributedto the difference between nonbonded interactions in thediscrete (LF-EOS) and continuum (FT-EOS) models of fluidOur estimate of cohesive-energy density 120576coh by equality

120576coh = 1205882(1198750 119879) 119886 (119879) + 120588

119897(119879) 119903120590(119879) (43)

represented in Table 6 seems also physically plausible Mag-inn et al [5 6] have determined it within the frameworkof GEMC-simulations by the knowledge of 120588(119875

0 119879) and

the internal energy difference between an ideal-gas ion pairand the average internal energy of an ion pair in the liquidstate

Such definition indicates that cohesive energy densitiesof many ILs are on the order of 500ndash550 Jcm3 (see forcomparison Table 6) and demonstrate a slight decrease astemperature increases

Another relevant characteristic is the internal pressuredetermined by the derivative of molar (or specific) internalenergy

which is compared to ones calculated by different authors [1416] for [bmim][BF

EOS predicts the much faster change of both cohesive energydensity 120576coh and internal pressure (120597119890120597V)

increasesOne should collect a large number of precise exper-

imental measurements to reconstruct the thermodynamicsurface of a substance FT-methodology provides a possibilityof preliminary reliable estimates of relevant macroscopicandmolecular-based correlations Its thermodynamic consis-tency provides the serious advantage in comparison with thepurely empiric treatment of any volumetric measurements atthe description of derived heat capacities

Step 3 (119860-variant of 119909(119879)-prediction [7 8]) To calculate itsvalues one must obtain two densities 120588plusmn (at the assumption119875120590asymp 0) from equation

where 120588 = 120588(119879 1198750) 1198850

= 1198750120588119877119879 and the 120588

Step 6 (119861-variant of 119909(119879)-prediction) To control the con-sistency of methodology one may use instead of Step 3 (119860-variant) the same equation (17) with the approximate equality120588119897(119879) asymp 120588

Step 7 The self-consistent prediction of a hypothetical(V 119897)-diagram requires the equilibration of CXC-pressures119875120590(119879 120588119892) = 119875120590(119879 120588119897) by FT-EOS (1) with the necessary final

change in 1198860(119879)-value from (19) to satisfy the equality

Since the low-temperature compressibility factor 119885119897(119879) is

very small for all discussed liquids their dispersive energies120576(119879) (molecular attractionrsquos parameters) are comparable inaccordance with (6b) However the differences in cohesiveenergies 119886(119879) (collective attractionrsquos parameters) between thelow-molecular substances (C

as it follows from Tables 1 and 2 The physical nature of such

distinction can be at the first glance attributed to omittedin the reference LJ-potential influence of intramolecularforce-field parameters and anisotropic (dipole-dipole andcoulombic) interactions At the same time one must accountthe collective macroscopic nature of 119886(119879)-parameter It cor-responds to the scales which are compatible or larger thanthe thermodynamic correlation length 120585(120588 119879) FT-model[9ndash12] provides an elegant and simple estimation of thiseffective parameter based on the concept of comparabilitybetween energetic and geometric characteristic of force fielddetermined by the given RPP Consider

and caloric (119862119901 119862V) derived quantities Simultaneously an

account of internal degrees of freedom and anisotropy by theperturbed RPP may change the correlation length itself

The above described by ((12)ndash(20)) FT-methodology hasbeen used to reconstruct the hypothetical phase diagram(HPD) for [bmim][BF

4] shown in Figures 2 3 and 4 and

represented in Table 3 Both (119879 120588) (Figure 2) and (119875 119879)(Figure 4) projections contain also the branches of classi-cal spinodal calculated by the LF (Sanchez-Lacombe)-EOSobtained in [14] Its top is the location of a respective criticalpoint It seems that the relatively close (119875

119888 119879119888)-parameters

predicted independently by FT-EOS and by LF-EOS (seeSection 1) are reasonable

The FT-model provides a possibility to estimate sep-arately the coordination numbers of LJ-particles in theorthobaric liquid 120588

119897(119879)- and vapor 120588

119892(119879)-phases An ability

to form the respective ldquofriablerdquo (119873119897119892+ 1)-clusters is defined

by the ratio of effective cohesive anddispersivemolar energiesat any subcritical temperature Consider

The crucial influence of excluded-volume in (24a) andits relative irrelevance in (24b) for 119873

119897119892-predictions are illus-

trated by Figure 5 where119873119897(119879) function is shown also for the

entire l-branch based on the evaluated in the present workHPD For comparison the low-temperature ability to formthe (119873

119897+ 1)-clusters in liquid water [7 24] is represented in

Figure 5 tooIn according with ((25a) (25b)) the ldquofriablerdquo clusters

can exist only as dimers in the classical critical liquid phase(119873119888

119897asymp 1) It is not universal property in the meaning

of scaling theory but it corresponds to the PCS-concept ofsimilarity between two substances (H

2O and [C

4mim][BF

4]

eg) if their 119885119888-values are close On the other side the

scaling hypothesis of universality is confirmed by the FT-EOSrsquo estimates in the nonclassical critical vapor phase Forthe set of low-molecular-weight substances studied in [9](Ar C

2H4 CO2 H2O) for example one obtains by (25b)

the common estimate (119873119888119892asymp 25) which shows a significant

associative near-mean-field behaviorIt is worthwhile to note here the correspondence of

some FT-EOSrsquo-estimates with the set of GEMC-simulated

results One may use the approximate estimate of criticalslope 119860

119888asymp 786 [9] for [bmim][BF

4] based on the similarity

of its 119885119888-value with that for H

119888= 1198870

178 cm3mol Another observation seems also interestingAuthors [25] have calculated (see Figure 3 in [25]) for theldquocompactrdquo clusters at 119897lowast = 07 05 045 the (119879lowast 120588lowast)-diagramof simple fluids One may note that only the value 119897lowast =

07 corresponds to the shape of strongly-curved diametershown in Figure 2 for the HPD while the smaller values119897lowast= 05 045 give the shape of HPD and the nearly rectilinear

diameter strongly resembling those obtained by the GEMC-simulations [6] for the complex ILrsquos force-field If this corre-spondence between the ldquofriablerdquo and ldquocompactrdquo clustering isnot accidental one obtains the unique possibility to connectthe measurable thermophysical properties with the bothcharacteristics of molecular structure in the framework ofFT-EOS

4 Comparison with the Empirical Tait EOSand Semiempirical Sanchez-Lacombe EOS

The empirical Tait EOS is based on the observation thatthe reciprocal of isothermal compressibility 120573minus1

119879for many

liquids is nearly linear in pressure at very high pressuresConsider

1 minus120588 (1198750 119879)

120588 (119875 119879)= 119862 (119879) ln [ 119861 (119879) + 119875

119861 (119879) + 1198750

] (26)

where some authors [14 19] omit the T-dependence incoefficient 119862 and ignore the value 119875

0asymp 0 [14] Such

restrictions transform the Tait EOS into the empirical formof two-parameter (119861(119879) 119862) PCS because the sets of 119862-values for different ILs become close one to another Forexample Machida et al [14] have found the sets C = 009710for [bmim][PF

6] C = 009358 for [bmim][BF

4] and C =

008961 for [bmim][OcSO4] which is rather close to the set

obtained by Matkowska and Hofman [19] C = 0088136 for[bmim][BF

4] and C = 00841547 for [bmim][MeSO

4] At

the same time Gu and Brennecke [3] have reported themuch larger T-dependent values 119862(298 2K) = 0 1829 and119862(323 2K) = 0 1630 for the same [bmim][PF

6]

Two other reasons of discrepancies in the Tait method-ology is the different approximations chosen by authors forthe reference input data 120588(119875

0 119879) and for the compound-

dependent function 119861(119879) Some authors [4 14 18] preferto fit the atmospheric isobars 120588(119875

0 119879) and 119862

119901(1198750 119879) with

a second-order or even third-order polynomial equationwhile the others [1 2 16 19] use a linear function for thisaim As a result the extrapolation ability to lower andhigher temperatures of different approximations becomesrestricted

119879and 120572

119875calculated by the Tait EOS (26)

The problem of their uncertainties becomes even morecomplex if one takes into account the often existence ofsystematic distinctions of as much as 05 between thedensities measured by different investigators even for thesimplest argon [23] Machida et al [14] for example pointedout the systematic deviations measured densities from thosereported by the de Azevedo et al [18] and Fredlake et al[1] for both [bmim][BF

4] and [bmim][PF

6] Matkowska and

Hofman [19] concluded that the discrepancies between thedifferent sets of calculated 120573

119879- and 120572

119875-derivatives increase

with increasing of 119879 and decreasing of 119875 due not only toexperimental differences in density values but also result fromthe fitting equation used The resultant situation is that theexpansivity 120572

119875of ILs reported in literature was either nearly

independent of T [18] or noticeably dependent of T [3 19]We can add to these observations that the linear in

molar (or specific) volume Tait Eos (26) is inadequate inrepresenting the curvature of the isotherm 119875(120588) at lowpressures It fails completely in description of (V 119897)-transitionwhere the more flexible function of volume is desirableHowever this has been clearly stated and explained by Streettfor liquid argon [23] that the adjustable T-dependence ofempirical EOS becomes the crucial factor in representing theexpansivity 120572

119875and especially heat capacities 119862

119875 119862V at high

pressures even if the reliable input data of sound velocity119882(119875 119879) were used

From such a viewpoint one may suppose that the linearin temperature LF-EOS proposed by Sanchez and Lacombe

119875 = minus1205882minus 119879[ln (1 minus 120588) + (1 minus 1

119873119897

)120588] (29)

is restricted to achieve the above goal but can be used as anyunified classical EOS common for both phases to predict theregion of their coexistence Such conjecture is confirmed bythe comparison of FT-EOSwith LF-EOS presented in Figures2 and 4 and discussed belowTheobvious advantage of formeris themore flexibleT-dependence expressed via the cohesive-energy coefficient 119886(119879) On the other hand the LF-EOS istypical form of EOS (see Section 1) in which the constraintof T-independent potential energy 119880( 119903 120588) is inherent [21]

Onemay consider it as the generalized variant of the well-known Bragg-Williams approximation for the ordinary LGpresented here in the dimensional form

It was compared with the simpler form of LF-EOS (29)Their predictions of the low-temperature density at saturation120588119897(119879) are comparable but unfortunately inaccurate (overesti-

mated) even for neutral low-molecular liquidsThe respectivepredictions of the vapor pressure 119875

120590(119879) are reasonable [15]

excepting the region of critical point for both EOSs Ourestimates based on the LF-EOS [14] shown in Figures 2 and 4are consistent with these conclusions

The comparison of volumetricmeasurements andderivedproperties [14 18] with the purely predictive (by the FT-EOS)and empirical (by the Tait EOS and LF-EOS) methodologiesused for [bmim][BF

4] is shown in Figures 6ndash9 Evidently

that former methodology is quite promising Machida et al[14] have reported two correlations of the same (119875 120588 119879)-data measured for [bmim][BF

4] at temperatures from 313 to

473 and pressures up to 200MPa To examine the trends inproperties of ILs with the common cation [bmim] the Taitempirical EOS was preliminarily fitted as the more appropri-ate model The estimate of its extrapolation capatibilities for(119875 120588 119879)-surface in the working range (290 lt 119879K lt 350)follows from the compatibility of experimental points (wherethose measured by de Azevedo et al [18] in the range oftemperature 298 lt 119879K lt 333 and pressure (01 lt 119875MPa lt60) were also included) with the thick curves in Figure 6 It isnoticeable for example that the extrapolated Taitrsquos isothermT = 290K coincides practically with isotherm T = 29834Kfrom [18] because the measured densities of latter source aresystematically higher than those from [14] Density data ofFredlake et al [1] for [bmim][BF

The consequence of such discrepancies is also typical forany simple liquids (Ar Kr Xe) [23] at moderate and highpressures It is impossible to reveal an actualT-dependence ofvolumetric (mechanical) derived functions 120572

119875 120574120588due to sys-

The Taitrsquos liquid has no trend to (V 119897)-transition (as well aspolymers) in opposite to the clear trends demonstrated byFT-EOS and LF-EOS One may suppose [26] a competitionbetween vaporization of IL (primarily driven by the isotropicdispersive attraction 1119903

6 in RPP) and chain formation(driven mainly by the anisotropic dipolar interactions 11199033)reflected by the Tait EOS fitted to the experimental data Ofcourse such conjecture must be at least confirmed by thecomputer simulations and FT-model provides this possibilityby the consistent estimate of RPP-parameters (120576 120590) at eachtemperature

The differences of calculated expansivity 120572119875in Figure 7

are especially interesting FT-EOS predicts even less variationof it with temperature than that for the Tait EOS This resultand crossing of 120572

119875(119875)-isotherms are qualitatively similar to

those obtained by de Azevedo et al [18] although the pressuredependence of allmechanical (120572

119875 120573119879 120574120588) and caloric (119862

119875 119862V)

derivatives (see Figures 10 11 and 12) is always more signifi-cant for the FT-EOSpredictions It seems that the curvature ofthe 120588(119879)-dependence following from the LF-EOS (29) is notsufficient to predict the 120572

119875(119875) behavior (Figure 7) correctly

The strong influence of the chosen input120588(1198750 119879)-dependence

is obvious from Figures 7ndash9The prediction of caloric derivatives (119862

119901 119862V 119862119901119862VGr)

is the most stringent test for any thermal (119875 120588 119879) EOSIt should be usually controlled [23] by the experimental(119882120588 119879)-surface to use the thermodynamical identities

into account the above distinction in the evaluated (120572119875 119875 119879)-

The remarkable qualitative and even quantitative (lt8)correspondence between the predicted by FT-EOS 119862V-valuesand those reported by de Azevedo et al [18] follows fromFigure 10 At the same time although the discrepanciesbetween 119862

119901-values [18] and those predicted by the FT-

EOS are again within acceptable limits (lt10) the formersdemonstrate the weak maximum and very small pressuredependence for [bmim][BF

4] (for [bmim][PF

6] this 119862

119901(119875)-

dependence is monotonous as well as that predicted by theFT-EOS) It seems that the resultant ratio of heat capacity119862119901119862V shown in Figure 12 which demonstrates the irregular

crossing of isotherms [18] is questionable It suggests thattheir pressure dependence either needs the more accurateapproximation or reflects the realistic distinction of referenceFT-EOS from the actual behavior of [bmim][BF

4]

The lock of noticeable variations in pressure is thecommon feature of integration methodology [18] based onthe given (119882119875 119879)- and (120588 119875 119879)-surfaces The unavoidableaccumulation of uncertainties at each stage of calculationsin the set 119882 minus 119862

119901minus 119862V may cause the unplausible behavior

of adiabatic exponent 119862119901119862V in liquid The same is true for

the set 119862V minus 119862119901 minus 119882 used in the FT-methodology It is themost appropriate explanation of significant discrepancies for119882(119875)-dependence shown in Figure 13 Let us remind alsothat the precise mechanical measurements of speed velocity[18] in the very viscous IL cannot be attributed exactly to thecondition of constant entropy

Thus strictly speaking the measured (119882119875 119879)-surfacereflects the strong dispersive properties of media andmust beless than its thermodynamic counterpart in the ideal (withouta viscosity) liquid

5 Conclusions

There are the structure-forming factors related to the above-discussed thermodynamic characteristic Despite the certaindiscrepancies between the predicted and derived propertiesfor FT-EOS and LF-EOS both ones provide the close esti-mates of structure factors represented in Table 5

Our aim here is to show that the thermodynamically-consistent predictions of thermodynamical properties by theFT-EOS yields also the molecular-based parameters whichare at least realistic (see also Table 3) The estimate ofaverage T-dependent well-depth 120576 by (6b) as well as estimateof average value 119873

119897by (24a) is related to the middle of

temperature range T = 320K The distinction of 120576 from therespective 120576lowast-parameters of LF-EOS [14] can be attributedto the difference between nonbonded interactions in thediscrete (LF-EOS) and continuum (FT-EOS) models of fluidOur estimate of cohesive-energy density 120576coh by equality

120576coh = 1205882(1198750 119879) 119886 (119879) + 120588

119897(119879) 119903120590(119879) (43)

represented in Table 6 seems also physically plausible Mag-inn et al [5 6] have determined it within the frameworkof GEMC-simulations by the knowledge of 120588(119875

0 119879) and

the internal energy difference between an ideal-gas ion pairand the average internal energy of an ion pair in the liquidstate

Such definition indicates that cohesive energy densitiesof many ILs are on the order of 500ndash550 Jcm3 (see forcomparison Table 6) and demonstrate a slight decrease astemperature increases

Another relevant characteristic is the internal pressuredetermined by the derivative of molar (or specific) internalenergy

which is compared to ones calculated by different authors [1416] for [bmim][BF

EOS predicts the much faster change of both cohesive energydensity 120576coh and internal pressure (120597119890120597V)

increasesOne should collect a large number of precise exper-

imental measurements to reconstruct the thermodynamicsurface of a substance FT-methodology provides a possibilityof preliminary reliable estimates of relevant macroscopicandmolecular-based correlations Its thermodynamic consis-tency provides the serious advantage in comparison with thepurely empiric treatment of any volumetric measurements atthe description of derived heat capacities

Since the low-temperature compressibility factor 119885119897(119879) is

very small for all discussed liquids their dispersive energies120576(119879) (molecular attractionrsquos parameters) are comparable inaccordance with (6b) However the differences in cohesiveenergies 119886(119879) (collective attractionrsquos parameters) between thelow-molecular substances (C

as it follows from Tables 1 and 2 The physical nature of such

distinction can be at the first glance attributed to omittedin the reference LJ-potential influence of intramolecularforce-field parameters and anisotropic (dipole-dipole andcoulombic) interactions At the same time one must accountthe collective macroscopic nature of 119886(119879)-parameter It cor-responds to the scales which are compatible or larger thanthe thermodynamic correlation length 120585(120588 119879) FT-model[9ndash12] provides an elegant and simple estimation of thiseffective parameter based on the concept of comparabilitybetween energetic and geometric characteristic of force fielddetermined by the given RPP Consider

of scaling theory but it corresponds to the PCS-concept ofsimilarity between two substances (H

eg) if their 119885119888-values are close On the other side the

scaling hypothesis of universality is confirmed by the FT-EOSrsquo estimates in the nonclassical critical vapor phase Forthe set of low-molecular-weight substances studied in [9](Ar C

2H4 CO2 H2O) for example one obtains by (25b)

the common estimate (119873119888119892asymp 25) which shows a significant

associative near-mean-field behaviorIt is worthwhile to note here the correspondence of

some FT-EOSrsquo-estimates with the set of GEMC-simulated

of its 119885119888-value with that for H

07 corresponds to the shape of strongly-curved diametershown in Figure 2 for the HPD while the smaller values119897lowast= 05 045 give the shape of HPD and the nearly rectilinear

diameter strongly resembling those obtained by the GEMC-simulations [6] for the complex ILrsquos force-field If this corre-spondence between the ldquofriablerdquo and ldquocompactrdquo clustering isnot accidental one obtains the unique possibility to connectthe measurable thermophysical properties with the bothcharacteristics of molecular structure in the framework ofFT-EOS

restrictions transform the Tait EOS into the empirical formof two-parameter (119861(119879) 119862) PCS because the sets of 119862-values for different ILs become close one to another Forexample Machida et al [14] have found the sets C = 009710for [bmim][PF

the same time Gu and Brennecke [3] have reported themuch larger T-dependent values 119862(298 2K) = 0 1829 and119862(323 2K) = 0 1630 for the same [bmim][PF

Two other reasons of discrepancies in the Tait method-ology is the different approximations chosen by authors forthe reference input data 120588(119875

0 119879) and for the compound-

dependent function 119861(119879) Some authors [4 14 18] preferto fit the atmospheric isobars 120588(119875

0 119879) and 119862

119901(1198750 119879) with

a second-order or even third-order polynomial equationwhile the others [1 2 16 19] use a linear function for thisaim As a result the extrapolation ability to lower andhigher temperatures of different approximations becomesrestricted

119879and 120572

119875calculated by the Tait EOS (26)

The problem of their uncertainties becomes even morecomplex if one takes into account the often existence ofsystematic distinctions of as much as 05 between thedensities measured by different investigators even for thesimplest argon [23] Machida et al [14] for example pointedout the systematic deviations measured densities from thosereported by the de Azevedo et al [18] and Fredlake et al[1] for both [bmim][BF

4] and [bmim][PF

6] Matkowska and

Hofman [19] concluded that the discrepancies between thedifferent sets of calculated 120573

119879- and 120572

119875-derivatives increase

with increasing of 119879 and decreasing of 119875 due not only toexperimental differences in density values but also result fromthe fitting equation used The resultant situation is that theexpansivity 120572

119875of ILs reported in literature was either nearly

independent of T [18] or noticeably dependent of T [3 19]We can add to these observations that the linear in

molar (or specific) volume Tait Eos (26) is inadequate inrepresenting the curvature of the isotherm 119875(120588) at lowpressures It fails completely in description of (V 119897)-transitionwhere the more flexible function of volume is desirableHowever this has been clearly stated and explained by Streettfor liquid argon [23] that the adjustable T-dependence ofempirical EOS becomes the crucial factor in representing theexpansivity 120572

119875and especially heat capacities 119862

119875 119862V at high

pressures even if the reliable input data of sound velocity119882(119875 119879) were used

From such a viewpoint one may suppose that the linearin temperature LF-EOS proposed by Sanchez and Lacombe

119875 = minus1205882minus 119879[ln (1 minus 120588) + (1 minus 1

119873119897

)120588] (29)

is restricted to achieve the above goal but can be used as anyunified classical EOS common for both phases to predict theregion of their coexistence Such conjecture is confirmed bythe comparison of FT-EOSwith LF-EOS presented in Figures2 and 4 and discussed belowTheobvious advantage of formeris themore flexibleT-dependence expressed via the cohesive-energy coefficient 119886(119879) On the other hand the LF-EOS istypical form of EOS (see Section 1) in which the constraintof T-independent potential energy 119880( 119903 120588) is inherent [21]

Onemay consider it as the generalized variant of the well-known Bragg-Williams approximation for the ordinary LGpresented here in the dimensional form

It was compared with the simpler form of LF-EOS (29)Their predictions of the low-temperature density at saturation120588119897(119879) are comparable but unfortunately inaccurate (overesti-

mated) even for neutral low-molecular liquidsThe respectivepredictions of the vapor pressure 119875

120590(119879) are reasonable [15]

excepting the region of critical point for both EOSs Ourestimates based on the LF-EOS [14] shown in Figures 2 and 4are consistent with these conclusions

The comparison of volumetricmeasurements andderivedproperties [14 18] with the purely predictive (by the FT-EOS)and empirical (by the Tait EOS and LF-EOS) methodologiesused for [bmim][BF

4] is shown in Figures 6ndash9 Evidently

that former methodology is quite promising Machida et al[14] have reported two correlations of the same (119875 120588 119879)-data measured for [bmim][BF

4] at temperatures from 313 to

473 and pressures up to 200MPa To examine the trends inproperties of ILs with the common cation [bmim] the Taitempirical EOS was preliminarily fitted as the more appropri-ate model The estimate of its extrapolation capatibilities for(119875 120588 119879)-surface in the working range (290 lt 119879K lt 350)follows from the compatibility of experimental points (wherethose measured by de Azevedo et al [18] in the range oftemperature 298 lt 119879K lt 333 and pressure (01 lt 119875MPa lt60) were also included) with the thick curves in Figure 6 It isnoticeable for example that the extrapolated Taitrsquos isothermT = 290K coincides practically with isotherm T = 29834Kfrom [18] because the measured densities of latter source aresystematically higher than those from [14] Density data ofFredlake et al [1] for [bmim][BF

The consequence of such discrepancies is also typical forany simple liquids (Ar Kr Xe) [23] at moderate and highpressures It is impossible to reveal an actualT-dependence ofvolumetric (mechanical) derived functions 120572

119875 120574120588due to sys-

tematic deviations between the data of different investigatorsIn such situation an attempt ldquoto take the bull by the hornsrdquoand to claim the preferable variant of EOS based exclusivelyon volumetric data may be erroneous Indeed since the TaitEOS is explicit in density while the LF-EOSmdashin temperaturethe direct calculation of 120572

It follows from Figure 6 that at moderate pressures119875MPa lt 50 the predictive FT-EOS is more accurate than thefitted semiempirical LF-EOS [14] although the discrepanciesof both with the empirical Tait EOS [14] become signifi-cant at the lowest (extrapolated) temperature T = 290K

et al [18] (points) on the base of speed velocity and density inputdata

The Taitrsquos liquid has no trend to (V 119897)-transition (as well aspolymers) in opposite to the clear trends demonstrated byFT-EOS and LF-EOS One may suppose [26] a competitionbetween vaporization of IL (primarily driven by the isotropicdispersive attraction 1119903

6 in RPP) and chain formation(driven mainly by the anisotropic dipolar interactions 11199033)reflected by the Tait EOS fitted to the experimental data Ofcourse such conjecture must be at least confirmed by thecomputer simulations and FT-model provides this possibilityby the consistent estimate of RPP-parameters (120576 120590) at eachtemperature

The differences of calculated expansivity 120572119875in Figure 7

are especially interesting FT-EOS predicts even less variationof it with temperature than that for the Tait EOS This resultand crossing of 120572

119875(119875)-isotherms are qualitatively similar to

those obtained by de Azevedo et al [18] although the pressuredependence of allmechanical (120572

119875 120573119879 120574120588) and caloric (119862

119875 119862V)

derivatives (see Figures 10 11 and 12) is always more signifi-cant for the FT-EOSpredictions It seems that the curvature ofthe 120588(119879)-dependence following from the LF-EOS (29) is notsufficient to predict the 120572

119875(119875) behavior (Figure 7) correctly

The strong influence of the chosen input120588(1198750 119879)-dependence

is obvious from Figures 7ndash9The prediction of caloric derivatives (119862

119901 119862V 119862119901119862VGr)

is the most stringent test for any thermal (119875 120588 119879) EOSIt should be usually controlled [23] by the experimental(119882120588 119879)-surface to use the thermodynamical identities

EOS is P = 206MPa de Azevedo et al [18] have reported themild decrease of 120572

120572119875(119875)-dependence while a presumable cross-point is located

between about 100 and 120MPa for [bmim][BF4] Taking

into account the above distinction in the evaluated (120572119875 119875 119879)-

The remarkable qualitative and even quantitative (lt8)correspondence between the predicted by FT-EOS 119862V-valuesand those reported by de Azevedo et al [18] follows fromFigure 10 At the same time although the discrepanciesbetween 119862

119901-values [18] and those predicted by the FT-

EOS are again within acceptable limits (lt10) the formersdemonstrate the weak maximum and very small pressuredependence for [bmim][BF

4] (for [bmim][PF

6] this 119862

119901(119875)-

dependence is monotonous as well as that predicted by theFT-EOS) It seems that the resultant ratio of heat capacity119862119901119862V shown in Figure 12 which demonstrates the irregular

crossing of isotherms [18] is questionable It suggests thattheir pressure dependence either needs the more accurateapproximation or reflects the realistic distinction of referenceFT-EOS from the actual behavior of [bmim][BF

4]

The lock of noticeable variations in pressure is thecommon feature of integration methodology [18] based onthe given (119882119875 119879)- and (120588 119875 119879)-surfaces The unavoidableaccumulation of uncertainties at each stage of calculationsin the set 119882 minus 119862

119901minus 119862V may cause the unplausible behavior

of adiabatic exponent 119862119901119862V in liquid The same is true for

the set 119862V minus 119862119901 minus 119882 used in the FT-methodology It is themost appropriate explanation of significant discrepancies for119882(119875)-dependence shown in Figure 13 Let us remind alsothat the precise mechanical measurements of speed velocity[18] in the very viscous IL cannot be attributed exactly to thecondition of constant entropy

Thus strictly speaking the measured (119882119875 119879)-surfacereflects the strong dispersive properties of media andmust beless than its thermodynamic counterpart in the ideal (withouta viscosity) liquid

5 Conclusions

There are the structure-forming factors related to the above-discussed thermodynamic characteristic Despite the certaindiscrepancies between the predicted and derived propertiesfor FT-EOS and LF-EOS both ones provide the close esti-mates of structure factors represented in Table 5

Our aim here is to show that the thermodynamically-consistent predictions of thermodynamical properties by theFT-EOS yields also the molecular-based parameters whichare at least realistic (see also Table 3) The estimate ofaverage T-dependent well-depth 120576 by (6b) as well as estimateof average value 119873

119897by (24a) is related to the middle of

temperature range T = 320K The distinction of 120576 from therespective 120576lowast-parameters of LF-EOS [14] can be attributedto the difference between nonbonded interactions in thediscrete (LF-EOS) and continuum (FT-EOS) models of fluidOur estimate of cohesive-energy density 120576coh by equality

120576coh = 1205882(1198750 119879) 119886 (119879) + 120588

119897(119879) 119903120590(119879) (43)

represented in Table 6 seems also physically plausible Mag-inn et al [5 6] have determined it within the frameworkof GEMC-simulations by the knowledge of 120588(119875

0 119879) and

the internal energy difference between an ideal-gas ion pairand the average internal energy of an ion pair in the liquidstate

Such definition indicates that cohesive energy densitiesof many ILs are on the order of 500ndash550 Jcm3 (see forcomparison Table 6) and demonstrate a slight decrease astemperature increases

Another relevant characteristic is the internal pressuredetermined by the derivative of molar (or specific) internalenergy

which is compared to ones calculated by different authors [1416] for [bmim][BF

EOS predicts the much faster change of both cohesive energydensity 120576coh and internal pressure (120597119890120597V)

increasesOne should collect a large number of precise exper-

imental measurements to reconstruct the thermodynamicsurface of a substance FT-methodology provides a possibilityof preliminary reliable estimates of relevant macroscopicandmolecular-based correlations Its thermodynamic consis-tency provides the serious advantage in comparison with thepurely empiric treatment of any volumetric measurements atthe description of derived heat capacities

Since the low-temperature compressibility factor 119885119897(119879) is

very small for all discussed liquids their dispersive energies120576(119879) (molecular attractionrsquos parameters) are comparable inaccordance with (6b) However the differences in cohesiveenergies 119886(119879) (collective attractionrsquos parameters) between thelow-molecular substances (C

as it follows from Tables 1 and 2 The physical nature of such

distinction can be at the first glance attributed to omittedin the reference LJ-potential influence of intramolecularforce-field parameters and anisotropic (dipole-dipole andcoulombic) interactions At the same time one must accountthe collective macroscopic nature of 119886(119879)-parameter It cor-responds to the scales which are compatible or larger thanthe thermodynamic correlation length 120585(120588 119879) FT-model[9ndash12] provides an elegant and simple estimation of thiseffective parameter based on the concept of comparabilitybetween energetic and geometric characteristic of force fielddetermined by the given RPP Consider

consistency between the correlation length for statics and thecorrelation time for dynamics becomes crucial In any casethe computer study of possible nongaussian nature of localfluctuations within the thermodynamic correlation volume1205853 may be quite useful The relevant inhomogeneities inthe steady spacial distributions of density and enthalpy canaffect first of all the simulated values of volumetric (120572

and caloric (119862119901 119862V) derived quantities Simultaneously an

account of internal degrees of freedom and anisotropy by theperturbed RPP may change the correlation length itself

The above described by ((12)ndash(20)) FT-methodology hasbeen used to reconstruct the hypothetical phase diagram(HPD) for [bmim][BF

represented in Table 3 Both (119879 120588) (Figure 2) and (119875 119879)(Figure 4) projections contain also the branches of classi-cal spinodal calculated by the LF (Sanchez-Lacombe)-EOSobtained in [14] Its top is the location of a respective criticalpoint It seems that the relatively close (119875

predicted independently by FT-EOS and by LF-EOS (seeSection 1) are reasonable

The crucial influence of excluded-volume in (24a) andits relative irrelevance in (24b) for 119873

trated by Figure 5 where119873119897(119879) function is shown also for the

entire l-branch based on the evaluated in the present workHPD For comparison the low-temperature ability to formthe (119873

119897+ 1)-clusters in liquid water [7 24] is represented in

Figure 5 tooIn according with ((25a) (25b)) the ldquofriablerdquo clusters

can exist only as dimers in the classical critical liquid phase(119873119888

119897asymp 1) It is not universal property in the meaning

of scaling theory but it corresponds to the PCS-concept ofsimilarity between two substances (H

2O and [C

4]

eg) if their 119885119888-values are close On the other side the

scaling hypothesis of universality is confirmed by the FT-EOSrsquo estimates in the nonclassical critical vapor phase Forthe set of low-molecular-weight substances studied in [9](Ar C

2H4 CO2 H2O) for example one obtains by (25b)

the common estimate (119873119888119892asymp 25) which shows a significant

associative near-mean-field behaviorIt is worthwhile to note here the correspondence of

some FT-EOSrsquo-estimates with the set of GEMC-simulated

results One may use the approximate estimate of criticalslope 119860

119888asymp 786 [9] for [bmim][BF

4] based on the similarity

of its 119885119888-value with that for H

respective critical excluded volume 119887119888

119888= 1198870

178 cm3mol Another observation seems also interestingAuthors [25] have calculated (see Figure 3 in [25]) for theldquocompactrdquo clusters at 119897lowast = 07 05 045 the (119879lowast 120588lowast)-diagramof simple fluids One may note that only the value 119897lowast =

07 corresponds to the shape of strongly-curved diametershown in Figure 2 for the HPD while the smaller values119897lowast= 05 045 give the shape of HPD and the nearly rectilinear

diameter strongly resembling those obtained by the GEMC-simulations [6] for the complex ILrsquos force-field If this corre-spondence between the ldquofriablerdquo and ldquocompactrdquo clustering isnot accidental one obtains the unique possibility to connectthe measurable thermophysical properties with the bothcharacteristics of molecular structure in the framework ofFT-EOS

4 Comparison with the Empirical Tait EOSand Semiempirical Sanchez-Lacombe EOS

The empirical Tait EOS is based on the observation thatthe reciprocal of isothermal compressibility 120573minus1

119879for many

liquids is nearly linear in pressure at very high pressuresConsider

1 minus120588 (1198750 119879)

120588 (119875 119879)= 119862 (119879) ln [ 119861 (119879) + 119875

119861 (119879) + 1198750

] (26)

where some authors [14 19] omit the T-dependence incoefficient 119862 and ignore the value 119875

0asymp 0 [14] Such

restrictions transform the Tait EOS into the empirical formof two-parameter (119861(119879) 119862) PCS because the sets of 119862-values for different ILs become close one to another Forexample Machida et al [14] have found the sets C = 009710for [bmim][PF

6] C = 009358 for [bmim][BF

4] and C =

008961 for [bmim][OcSO4] which is rather close to the set

obtained by Matkowska and Hofman [19] C = 0088136 for[bmim][BF

4] and C = 00841547 for [bmim][MeSO

4] At

the same time Gu and Brennecke [3] have reported themuch larger T-dependent values 119862(298 2K) = 0 1829 and119862(323 2K) = 0 1630 for the same [bmim][PF

6]

Two other reasons of discrepancies in the Tait method-ology is the different approximations chosen by authors forthe reference input data 120588(119875

0 119879) and for the compound-

dependent function 119861(119879) Some authors [4 14 18] preferto fit the atmospheric isobars 120588(119875

0 119879) and 119862

119901(1198750 119879) with

a second-order or even third-order polynomial equationwhile the others [1 2 16 19] use a linear function for thisaim As a result the extrapolation ability to lower andhigher temperatures of different approximations becomesrestricted

119879and 120572

119875calculated by the Tait EOS (26)

The problem of their uncertainties becomes even morecomplex if one takes into account the often existence ofsystematic distinctions of as much as 05 between thedensities measured by different investigators even for thesimplest argon [23] Machida et al [14] for example pointedout the systematic deviations measured densities from thosereported by the de Azevedo et al [18] and Fredlake et al[1] for both [bmim][BF

4] and [bmim][PF

6] Matkowska and

Hofman [19] concluded that the discrepancies between thedifferent sets of calculated 120573

119879- and 120572

119875-derivatives increase

with increasing of 119879 and decreasing of 119875 due not only toexperimental differences in density values but also result fromthe fitting equation used The resultant situation is that theexpansivity 120572

119875of ILs reported in literature was either nearly

independent of T [18] or noticeably dependent of T [3 19]We can add to these observations that the linear in

molar (or specific) volume Tait Eos (26) is inadequate inrepresenting the curvature of the isotherm 119875(120588) at lowpressures It fails completely in description of (V 119897)-transitionwhere the more flexible function of volume is desirableHowever this has been clearly stated and explained by Streettfor liquid argon [23] that the adjustable T-dependence ofempirical EOS becomes the crucial factor in representing theexpansivity 120572

119875and especially heat capacities 119862

119875 119862V at high

pressures even if the reliable input data of sound velocity119882(119875 119879) were used

From such a viewpoint one may suppose that the linearin temperature LF-EOS proposed by Sanchez and Lacombe

119875 = minus1205882minus 119879[ln (1 minus 120588) + (1 minus 1

119873119897

)120588] (29)

is restricted to achieve the above goal but can be used as anyunified classical EOS common for both phases to predict theregion of their coexistence Such conjecture is confirmed bythe comparison of FT-EOSwith LF-EOS presented in Figures2 and 4 and discussed belowTheobvious advantage of formeris themore flexibleT-dependence expressed via the cohesive-energy coefficient 119886(119879) On the other hand the LF-EOS istypical form of EOS (see Section 1) in which the constraintof T-independent potential energy 119880( 119903 120588) is inherent [21]

Onemay consider it as the generalized variant of the well-known Bragg-Williams approximation for the ordinary LGpresented here in the dimensional form

It was compared with the simpler form of LF-EOS (29)Their predictions of the low-temperature density at saturation120588119897(119879) are comparable but unfortunately inaccurate (overesti-

mated) even for neutral low-molecular liquidsThe respectivepredictions of the vapor pressure 119875

120590(119879) are reasonable [15]

excepting the region of critical point for both EOSs Ourestimates based on the LF-EOS [14] shown in Figures 2 and 4are consistent with these conclusions

The comparison of volumetricmeasurements andderivedproperties [14 18] with the purely predictive (by the FT-EOS)and empirical (by the Tait EOS and LF-EOS) methodologiesused for [bmim][BF

4] is shown in Figures 6ndash9 Evidently

that former methodology is quite promising Machida et al[14] have reported two correlations of the same (119875 120588 119879)-data measured for [bmim][BF

4] at temperatures from 313 to

473 and pressures up to 200MPa To examine the trends inproperties of ILs with the common cation [bmim] the Taitempirical EOS was preliminarily fitted as the more appropri-ate model The estimate of its extrapolation capatibilities for(119875 120588 119879)-surface in the working range (290 lt 119879K lt 350)follows from the compatibility of experimental points (wherethose measured by de Azevedo et al [18] in the range oftemperature 298 lt 119879K lt 333 and pressure (01 lt 119875MPa lt60) were also included) with the thick curves in Figure 6 It isnoticeable for example that the extrapolated Taitrsquos isothermT = 290K coincides practically with isotherm T = 29834Kfrom [18] because the measured densities of latter source aresystematically higher than those from [14] Density data ofFredlake et al [1] for [bmim][BF

The consequence of such discrepancies is also typical forany simple liquids (Ar Kr Xe) [23] at moderate and highpressures It is impossible to reveal an actualT-dependence ofvolumetric (mechanical) derived functions 120572

the boundaries of working range where the extrapolation toT = 290K is again assumed One may notice the qualitativesimilarity of FT-EOS (the thin curves) and LF-EOSwhich canbe hypothesized as an existence of certain model substanceat the extrapolation to higher pressures 119875MPa gt 50 Itdemonstrates the smaller compressibility 120573

119879(Figure 8) and

expansivity 120572119875(Figure 7) than those predicted by the Tait

EOSwhile the value of thermal-pressure coefficient 120574120588for FT-

EOS (Figure 9) becomes larger It determines the distinctionsin the calculated internal pressure The choice of the FT-modelrsquos substance as a reference system for the perturbationmethodology provides the set of advantages in comparisonwith the LF-EOS

It follows from Figure 6 that at moderate pressures119875MPa lt 50 the predictive FT-EOS is more accurate than thefitted semiempirical LF-EOS [14] although the discrepanciesof both with the empirical Tait EOS [14] become signifi-cant at the lowest (extrapolated) temperature T = 290K

The Taitrsquos liquid has no trend to (V 119897)-transition (as well aspolymers) in opposite to the clear trends demonstrated byFT-EOS and LF-EOS One may suppose [26] a competitionbetween vaporization of IL (primarily driven by the isotropicdispersive attraction 1119903

6 in RPP) and chain formation(driven mainly by the anisotropic dipolar interactions 11199033)reflected by the Tait EOS fitted to the experimental data Ofcourse such conjecture must be at least confirmed by thecomputer simulations and FT-model provides this possibilityby the consistent estimate of RPP-parameters (120576 120590) at eachtemperature

The differences of calculated expansivity 120572119875in Figure 7

are especially interesting FT-EOS predicts even less variationof it with temperature than that for the Tait EOS This resultand crossing of 120572

119875(119875)-isotherms are qualitatively similar to

those obtained by de Azevedo et al [18] although the pressuredependence of allmechanical (120572

119875 120573119879 120574120588) and caloric (119862

119875 119862V)

derivatives (see Figures 10 11 and 12) is always more signifi-cant for the FT-EOSpredictions It seems that the curvature ofthe 120588(119879)-dependence following from the LF-EOS (29) is notsufficient to predict the 120572

119875(119875) behavior (Figure 7) correctly

The strong influence of the chosen input120588(1198750 119879)-dependence

is obvious from Figures 7ndash9The prediction of caloric derivatives (119862

The remarkable qualitative and even quantitative (lt8)correspondence between the predicted by FT-EOS 119862V-valuesand those reported by de Azevedo et al [18] follows fromFigure 10 At the same time although the discrepanciesbetween 119862

119901-values [18] and those predicted by the FT-

EOS are again within acceptable limits (lt10) the formersdemonstrate the weak maximum and very small pressuredependence for [bmim][BF

4] (for [bmim][PF

6] this 119862

119901(119875)-

dependence is monotonous as well as that predicted by theFT-EOS) It seems that the resultant ratio of heat capacity119862119901119862V shown in Figure 12 which demonstrates the irregular

crossing of isotherms [18] is questionable It suggests thattheir pressure dependence either needs the more accurateapproximation or reflects the realistic distinction of referenceFT-EOS from the actual behavior of [bmim][BF

4]

The lock of noticeable variations in pressure is thecommon feature of integration methodology [18] based onthe given (119882119875 119879)- and (120588 119875 119879)-surfaces The unavoidableaccumulation of uncertainties at each stage of calculationsin the set 119882 minus 119862

119901minus 119862V may cause the unplausible behavior

of adiabatic exponent 119862119901119862V in liquid The same is true for

the set 119862V minus 119862119901 minus 119882 used in the FT-methodology It is themost appropriate explanation of significant discrepancies for119882(119875)-dependence shown in Figure 13 Let us remind alsothat the precise mechanical measurements of speed velocity[18] in the very viscous IL cannot be attributed exactly to thecondition of constant entropy

Thus strictly speaking the measured (119882119875 119879)-surfacereflects the strong dispersive properties of media andmust beless than its thermodynamic counterpart in the ideal (withouta viscosity) liquid

5 Conclusions

There are the structure-forming factors related to the above-discussed thermodynamic characteristic Despite the certaindiscrepancies between the predicted and derived propertiesfor FT-EOS and LF-EOS both ones provide the close esti-mates of structure factors represented in Table 5

Our aim here is to show that the thermodynamically-consistent predictions of thermodynamical properties by theFT-EOS yields also the molecular-based parameters whichare at least realistic (see also Table 3) The estimate ofaverage T-dependent well-depth 120576 by (6b) as well as estimateof average value 119873

119897by (24a) is related to the middle of

temperature range T = 320K The distinction of 120576 from therespective 120576lowast-parameters of LF-EOS [14] can be attributedto the difference between nonbonded interactions in thediscrete (LF-EOS) and continuum (FT-EOS) models of fluidOur estimate of cohesive-energy density 120576coh by equality

120576coh = 1205882(1198750 119879) 119886 (119879) + 120588

119897(119879) 119903120590(119879) (43)

represented in Table 6 seems also physically plausible Mag-inn et al [5 6] have determined it within the frameworkof GEMC-simulations by the knowledge of 120588(119875

0 119879) and

the internal energy difference between an ideal-gas ion pairand the average internal energy of an ion pair in the liquidstate

Such definition indicates that cohesive energy densitiesof many ILs are on the order of 500ndash550 Jcm3 (see forcomparison Table 6) and demonstrate a slight decrease astemperature increases

Another relevant characteristic is the internal pressuredetermined by the derivative of molar (or specific) internalenergy

increasesOne should collect a large number of precise exper-

imental measurements to reconstruct the thermodynamicsurface of a substance FT-methodology provides a possibilityof preliminary reliable estimates of relevant macroscopicandmolecular-based correlations Its thermodynamic consis-tency provides the serious advantage in comparison with thepurely empiric treatment of any volumetric measurements atthe description of derived heat capacities

consistency between the correlation length for statics and thecorrelation time for dynamics becomes crucial In any casethe computer study of possible nongaussian nature of localfluctuations within the thermodynamic correlation volume1205853 may be quite useful The relevant inhomogeneities inthe steady spacial distributions of density and enthalpy canaffect first of all the simulated values of volumetric (120572

and caloric (119862119901 119862V) derived quantities Simultaneously an

account of internal degrees of freedom and anisotropy by theperturbed RPP may change the correlation length itself

The above described by ((12)ndash(20)) FT-methodology hasbeen used to reconstruct the hypothetical phase diagram(HPD) for [bmim][BF

4] shown in Figures 2 3 and 4 and

represented in Table 3 Both (119879 120588) (Figure 2) and (119875 119879)(Figure 4) projections contain also the branches of classi-cal spinodal calculated by the LF (Sanchez-Lacombe)-EOSobtained in [14] Its top is the location of a respective criticalpoint It seems that the relatively close (119875

119888 119879119888)-parameters

predicted independently by FT-EOS and by LF-EOS (seeSection 1) are reasonable

The FT-model provides a possibility to estimate sep-arately the coordination numbers of LJ-particles in theorthobaric liquid 120588

to form the respective ldquofriablerdquo (119873119897119892+ 1)-clusters is defined

The crucial influence of excluded-volume in (24a) andits relative irrelevance in (24b) for 119873

119897119892-predictions are illus-

trated by Figure 5 where119873119897(119879) function is shown also for the

entire l-branch based on the evaluated in the present workHPD For comparison the low-temperature ability to formthe (119873

119897+ 1)-clusters in liquid water [7 24] is represented in

Figure 5 tooIn according with ((25a) (25b)) the ldquofriablerdquo clusters

can exist only as dimers in the classical critical liquid phase(119873119888

119897asymp 1) It is not universal property in the meaning

of scaling theory but it corresponds to the PCS-concept ofsimilarity between two substances (H

2O and [C

4mim][BF

4]

eg) if their 119885119888-values are close On the other side the

scaling hypothesis of universality is confirmed by the FT-EOSrsquo estimates in the nonclassical critical vapor phase Forthe set of low-molecular-weight substances studied in [9](Ar C

2H4 CO2 H2O) for example one obtains by (25b)

the common estimate (119873119888119892asymp 25) which shows a significant

associative near-mean-field behaviorIt is worthwhile to note here the correspondence of

some FT-EOSrsquo-estimates with the set of GEMC-simulated

results One may use the approximate estimate of criticalslope 119860

119888asymp 786 [9] for [bmim][BF

4] based on the similarity

of its 119885119888-value with that for H

2O [24] In such case the

respective critical excluded volume 119887119888

asymp 220 cm3molbecomes much more than vdW-value 13120588

119888= 1198870

119888asymp 1198870asymp

178 cm3mol Another observation seems also interestingAuthors [25] have calculated (see Figure 3 in [25]) for theldquocompactrdquo clusters at 119897lowast = 07 05 045 the (119879lowast 120588lowast)-diagramof simple fluids One may note that only the value 119897lowast =

07 corresponds to the shape of strongly-curved diametershown in Figure 2 for the HPD while the smaller values119897lowast= 05 045 give the shape of HPD and the nearly rectilinear

diameter strongly resembling those obtained by the GEMC-simulations [6] for the complex ILrsquos force-field If this corre-spondence between the ldquofriablerdquo and ldquocompactrdquo clustering isnot accidental one obtains the unique possibility to connectthe measurable thermophysical properties with the bothcharacteristics of molecular structure in the framework ofFT-EOS

4 Comparison with the Empirical Tait EOSand Semiempirical Sanchez-Lacombe EOS

The empirical Tait EOS is based on the observation thatthe reciprocal of isothermal compressibility 120573minus1

119879for many

liquids is nearly linear in pressure at very high pressuresConsider

1 minus120588 (1198750 119879)

120588 (119875 119879)= 119862 (119879) ln [ 119861 (119879) + 119875

119861 (119879) + 1198750

] (26)

where some authors [14 19] omit the T-dependence incoefficient 119862 and ignore the value 119875

0asymp 0 [14] Such

restrictions transform the Tait EOS into the empirical formof two-parameter (119861(119879) 119862) PCS because the sets of 119862-values for different ILs become close one to another Forexample Machida et al [14] have found the sets C = 009710for [bmim][PF

6] C = 009358 for [bmim][BF

4] and C =

008961 for [bmim][OcSO4] which is rather close to the set

obtained by Matkowska and Hofman [19] C = 0088136 for[bmim][BF

4] and C = 00841547 for [bmim][MeSO

4] At

the same time Gu and Brennecke [3] have reported themuch larger T-dependent values 119862(298 2K) = 0 1829 and119862(323 2K) = 0 1630 for the same [bmim][PF

6]

Two other reasons of discrepancies in the Tait method-ology is the different approximations chosen by authors forthe reference input data 120588(119875

0 119879) and for the compound-

dependent function 119861(119879) Some authors [4 14 18] preferto fit the atmospheric isobars 120588(119875

0 119879) and 119862

119901(1198750 119879) with

a second-order or even third-order polynomial equationwhile the others [1 2 16 19] use a linear function for thisaim As a result the extrapolation ability to lower andhigher temperatures of different approximations becomesrestricted

119879and 120572

119875calculated by the Tait EOS (26)

The problem of their uncertainties becomes even morecomplex if one takes into account the often existence ofsystematic distinctions of as much as 05 between thedensities measured by different investigators even for thesimplest argon [23] Machida et al [14] for example pointedout the systematic deviations measured densities from thosereported by the de Azevedo et al [18] and Fredlake et al[1] for both [bmim][BF

4] and [bmim][PF

6] Matkowska and

Hofman [19] concluded that the discrepancies between thedifferent sets of calculated 120573

119879- and 120572

119875-derivatives increase

with increasing of 119879 and decreasing of 119875 due not only toexperimental differences in density values but also result fromthe fitting equation used The resultant situation is that theexpansivity 120572

119875of ILs reported in literature was either nearly

independent of T [18] or noticeably dependent of T [3 19]We can add to these observations that the linear in

molar (or specific) volume Tait Eos (26) is inadequate inrepresenting the curvature of the isotherm 119875(120588) at lowpressures It fails completely in description of (V 119897)-transitionwhere the more flexible function of volume is desirableHowever this has been clearly stated and explained by Streettfor liquid argon [23] that the adjustable T-dependence ofempirical EOS becomes the crucial factor in representing theexpansivity 120572

119875and especially heat capacities 119862

119875 119862V at high

pressures even if the reliable input data of sound velocity119882(119875 119879) were used

From such a viewpoint one may suppose that the linearin temperature LF-EOS proposed by Sanchez and Lacombe

119875 = minus1205882minus 119879[ln (1 minus 120588) + (1 minus 1

119873119897

)120588] (29)

is restricted to achieve the above goal but can be used as anyunified classical EOS common for both phases to predict theregion of their coexistence Such conjecture is confirmed bythe comparison of FT-EOSwith LF-EOS presented in Figures2 and 4 and discussed belowTheobvious advantage of formeris themore flexibleT-dependence expressed via the cohesive-energy coefficient 119886(119879) On the other hand the LF-EOS istypical form of EOS (see Section 1) in which the constraintof T-independent potential energy 119880( 119903 120588) is inherent [21]

Onemay consider it as the generalized variant of the well-known Bragg-Williams approximation for the ordinary LGpresented here in the dimensional form

It was compared with the simpler form of LF-EOS (29)Their predictions of the low-temperature density at saturation120588119897(119879) are comparable but unfortunately inaccurate (overesti-

mated) even for neutral low-molecular liquidsThe respectivepredictions of the vapor pressure 119875

120590(119879) are reasonable [15]

excepting the region of critical point for both EOSs Ourestimates based on the LF-EOS [14] shown in Figures 2 and 4are consistent with these conclusions

The comparison of volumetricmeasurements andderivedproperties [14 18] with the purely predictive (by the FT-EOS)and empirical (by the Tait EOS and LF-EOS) methodologiesused for [bmim][BF

4] is shown in Figures 6ndash9 Evidently

that former methodology is quite promising Machida et al[14] have reported two correlations of the same (119875 120588 119879)-data measured for [bmim][BF

4] at temperatures from 313 to

473 and pressures up to 200MPa To examine the trends inproperties of ILs with the common cation [bmim] the Taitempirical EOS was preliminarily fitted as the more appropri-ate model The estimate of its extrapolation capatibilities for(119875 120588 119879)-surface in the working range (290 lt 119879K lt 350)follows from the compatibility of experimental points (wherethose measured by de Azevedo et al [18] in the range oftemperature 298 lt 119879K lt 333 and pressure (01 lt 119875MPa lt60) were also included) with the thick curves in Figure 6 It isnoticeable for example that the extrapolated Taitrsquos isothermT = 290K coincides practically with isotherm T = 29834Kfrom [18] because the measured densities of latter source aresystematically higher than those from [14] Density data ofFredlake et al [1] for [bmim][BF

The consequence of such discrepancies is also typical forany simple liquids (Ar Kr Xe) [23] at moderate and highpressures It is impossible to reveal an actualT-dependence ofvolumetric (mechanical) derived functions 120572

119875 120574120588due to sys-

tematic deviations between the data of different investigatorsIn such situation an attempt ldquoto take the bull by the hornsrdquoand to claim the preferable variant of EOS based exclusivelyon volumetric data may be erroneous Indeed since the TaitEOS is explicit in density while the LF-EOSmdashin temperaturethe direct calculation of 120572

120572119875 120574120588-derivatives for latter are motivated To illustrate the

119879(Figure 8) and

expansivity 120572119875(Figure 7) than those predicted by the Tait

EOSwhile the value of thermal-pressure coefficient 120574120588for FT-

EOS (Figure 9) becomes larger It determines the distinctionsin the calculated internal pressure The choice of the FT-modelrsquos substance as a reference system for the perturbationmethodology provides the set of advantages in comparisonwith the LF-EOS

It follows from Figure 6 that at moderate pressures119875MPa lt 50 the predictive FT-EOS is more accurate than thefitted semiempirical LF-EOS [14] although the discrepanciesof both with the empirical Tait EOS [14] become signifi-cant at the lowest (extrapolated) temperature T = 290K

The Taitrsquos liquid has no trend to (V 119897)-transition (as well aspolymers) in opposite to the clear trends demonstrated byFT-EOS and LF-EOS One may suppose [26] a competitionbetween vaporization of IL (primarily driven by the isotropicdispersive attraction 1119903

6 in RPP) and chain formation(driven mainly by the anisotropic dipolar interactions 11199033)reflected by the Tait EOS fitted to the experimental data Ofcourse such conjecture must be at least confirmed by thecomputer simulations and FT-model provides this possibilityby the consistent estimate of RPP-parameters (120576 120590) at eachtemperature

The differences of calculated expansivity 120572119875in Figure 7

are especially interesting FT-EOS predicts even less variationof it with temperature than that for the Tait EOS This resultand crossing of 120572

119875(119875)-isotherms are qualitatively similar to

those obtained by de Azevedo et al [18] although the pressuredependence of allmechanical (120572

119875 120573119879 120574120588) and caloric (119862

119875 119862V)

derivatives (see Figures 10 11 and 12) is always more signifi-cant for the FT-EOSpredictions It seems that the curvature ofthe 120588(119879)-dependence following from the LF-EOS (29) is notsufficient to predict the 120572

119875(119875) behavior (Figure 7) correctly

The strong influence of the chosen input120588(1198750 119879)-dependence

is obvious from Figures 7ndash9The prediction of caloric derivatives (119862

is the most stringent test for any thermal (119875 120588 119879) EOSIt should be usually controlled [23] by the experimental(119882120588 119879)-surface to use the thermodynamical identities

The remarkable qualitative and even quantitative (lt8)correspondence between the predicted by FT-EOS 119862V-valuesand those reported by de Azevedo et al [18] follows fromFigure 10 At the same time although the discrepanciesbetween 119862

119901-values [18] and those predicted by the FT-

EOS are again within acceptable limits (lt10) the formersdemonstrate the weak maximum and very small pressuredependence for [bmim][BF

4] (for [bmim][PF

6] this 119862

119901(119875)-

dependence is monotonous as well as that predicted by theFT-EOS) It seems that the resultant ratio of heat capacity119862119901119862V shown in Figure 12 which demonstrates the irregular

crossing of isotherms [18] is questionable It suggests thattheir pressure dependence either needs the more accurateapproximation or reflects the realistic distinction of referenceFT-EOS from the actual behavior of [bmim][BF

4]

The lock of noticeable variations in pressure is thecommon feature of integration methodology [18] based onthe given (119882119875 119879)- and (120588 119875 119879)-surfaces The unavoidableaccumulation of uncertainties at each stage of calculationsin the set 119882 minus 119862

119901minus 119862V may cause the unplausible behavior

of adiabatic exponent 119862119901119862V in liquid The same is true for

the set 119862V minus 119862119901 minus 119882 used in the FT-methodology It is themost appropriate explanation of significant discrepancies for119882(119875)-dependence shown in Figure 13 Let us remind alsothat the precise mechanical measurements of speed velocity[18] in the very viscous IL cannot be attributed exactly to thecondition of constant entropy

Thus strictly speaking the measured (119882119875 119879)-surfacereflects the strong dispersive properties of media andmust beless than its thermodynamic counterpart in the ideal (withouta viscosity) liquid

5 Conclusions

There are the structure-forming factors related to the above-discussed thermodynamic characteristic Despite the certaindiscrepancies between the predicted and derived propertiesfor FT-EOS and LF-EOS both ones provide the close esti-mates of structure factors represented in Table 5

Our aim here is to show that the thermodynamically-consistent predictions of thermodynamical properties by theFT-EOS yields also the molecular-based parameters whichare at least realistic (see also Table 3) The estimate ofaverage T-dependent well-depth 120576 by (6b) as well as estimateof average value 119873

119897by (24a) is related to the middle of

temperature range T = 320K The distinction of 120576 from therespective 120576lowast-parameters of LF-EOS [14] can be attributedto the difference between nonbonded interactions in thediscrete (LF-EOS) and continuum (FT-EOS) models of fluidOur estimate of cohesive-energy density 120576coh by equality

120576coh = 1205882(1198750 119879) 119886 (119879) + 120588

119897(119879) 119903120590(119879) (43)

represented in Table 6 seems also physically plausible Mag-inn et al [5 6] have determined it within the frameworkof GEMC-simulations by the knowledge of 120588(119875

0 119879) and

the internal energy difference between an ideal-gas ion pairand the average internal energy of an ion pair in the liquidstate

Such definition indicates that cohesive energy densitiesof many ILs are on the order of 500ndash550 Jcm3 (see forcomparison Table 6) and demonstrate a slight decrease astemperature increases

Another relevant characteristic is the internal pressuredetermined by the derivative of molar (or specific) internalenergy

which is compared to ones calculated by different authors [1416] for [bmim][BF

EOS predicts the much faster change of both cohesive energydensity 120576coh and internal pressure (120597119890120597V)

increasesOne should collect a large number of precise exper-

imental measurements to reconstruct the thermodynamicsurface of a substance FT-methodology provides a possibilityof preliminary reliable estimates of relevant macroscopicandmolecular-based correlations Its thermodynamic consis-tency provides the serious advantage in comparison with thepurely empiric treatment of any volumetric measurements atthe description of derived heat capacities

The crucial influence of excluded-volume in (24a) andits relative irrelevance in (24b) for 119873

119897119892-predictions are illus-

trated by Figure 5 where119873119897(119879) function is shown also for the

entire l-branch based on the evaluated in the present workHPD For comparison the low-temperature ability to formthe (119873

119897+ 1)-clusters in liquid water [7 24] is represented in

Figure 5 tooIn according with ((25a) (25b)) the ldquofriablerdquo clusters

can exist only as dimers in the classical critical liquid phase(119873119888

119897asymp 1) It is not universal property in the meaning

of scaling theory but it corresponds to the PCS-concept ofsimilarity between two substances (H

2O and [C

4mim][BF

4]

eg) if their 119885119888-values are close On the other side the

scaling hypothesis of universality is confirmed by the FT-EOSrsquo estimates in the nonclassical critical vapor phase Forthe set of low-molecular-weight substances studied in [9](Ar C

2H4 CO2 H2O) for example one obtains by (25b)

the common estimate (119873119888119892asymp 25) which shows a significant

associative near-mean-field behaviorIt is worthwhile to note here the correspondence of

some FT-EOSrsquo-estimates with the set of GEMC-simulated

results One may use the approximate estimate of criticalslope 119860

119888asymp 786 [9] for [bmim][BF

4] based on the similarity

of its 119885119888-value with that for H

2O [24] In such case the

respective critical excluded volume 119887119888

asymp 220 cm3molbecomes much more than vdW-value 13120588

119888= 1198870

178 cm3mol Another observation seems also interestingAuthors [25] have calculated (see Figure 3 in [25]) for theldquocompactrdquo clusters at 119897lowast = 07 05 045 the (119879lowast 120588lowast)-diagramof simple fluids One may note that only the value 119897lowast =

07 corresponds to the shape of strongly-curved diametershown in Figure 2 for the HPD while the smaller values119897lowast= 05 045 give the shape of HPD and the nearly rectilinear

diameter strongly resembling those obtained by the GEMC-simulations [6] for the complex ILrsquos force-field If this corre-spondence between the ldquofriablerdquo and ldquocompactrdquo clustering isnot accidental one obtains the unique possibility to connectthe measurable thermophysical properties with the bothcharacteristics of molecular structure in the framework ofFT-EOS

4 Comparison with the Empirical Tait EOSand Semiempirical Sanchez-Lacombe EOS

The empirical Tait EOS is based on the observation thatthe reciprocal of isothermal compressibility 120573minus1

119879for many

liquids is nearly linear in pressure at very high pressuresConsider

1 minus120588 (1198750 119879)

120588 (119875 119879)= 119862 (119879) ln [ 119861 (119879) + 119875

119861 (119879) + 1198750

] (26)

where some authors [14 19] omit the T-dependence incoefficient 119862 and ignore the value 119875

0asymp 0 [14] Such

restrictions transform the Tait EOS into the empirical formof two-parameter (119861(119879) 119862) PCS because the sets of 119862-values for different ILs become close one to another Forexample Machida et al [14] have found the sets C = 009710for [bmim][PF

6] C = 009358 for [bmim][BF

4] and C =

008961 for [bmim][OcSO4] which is rather close to the set

obtained by Matkowska and Hofman [19] C = 0088136 for[bmim][BF

4] and C = 00841547 for [bmim][MeSO

4] At

the same time Gu and Brennecke [3] have reported themuch larger T-dependent values 119862(298 2K) = 0 1829 and119862(323 2K) = 0 1630 for the same [bmim][PF

6]

Two other reasons of discrepancies in the Tait method-ology is the different approximations chosen by authors forthe reference input data 120588(119875

0 119879) and for the compound-

dependent function 119861(119879) Some authors [4 14 18] preferto fit the atmospheric isobars 120588(119875

0 119879) and 119862

119901(1198750 119879) with

a second-order or even third-order polynomial equationwhile the others [1 2 16 19] use a linear function for thisaim As a result the extrapolation ability to lower andhigher temperatures of different approximations becomesrestricted

linear approximation of both density and heat capacity

119861(119879) (so authors [14] have used the exponential form whileauthors [19] have preferred the linear form) may distortthe derivatives 120573

119879and 120572

119875calculated by the Tait EOS (26)

The problem of their uncertainties becomes even morecomplex if one takes into account the often existence ofsystematic distinctions of as much as 05 between thedensities measured by different investigators even for thesimplest argon [23] Machida et al [14] for example pointedout the systematic deviations measured densities from thosereported by the de Azevedo et al [18] and Fredlake et al[1] for both [bmim][BF

4] and [bmim][PF

6] Matkowska and

Hofman [19] concluded that the discrepancies between thedifferent sets of calculated 120573

119879- and 120572

119875-derivatives increase

with increasing of 119879 and decreasing of 119875 due not only toexperimental differences in density values but also result fromthe fitting equation used The resultant situation is that theexpansivity 120572

119875of ILs reported in literature was either nearly

independent of T [18] or noticeably dependent of T [3 19]We can add to these observations that the linear in

molar (or specific) volume Tait Eos (26) is inadequate inrepresenting the curvature of the isotherm 119875(120588) at lowpressures It fails completely in description of (V 119897)-transitionwhere the more flexible function of volume is desirableHowever this has been clearly stated and explained by Streettfor liquid argon [23] that the adjustable T-dependence ofempirical EOS becomes the crucial factor in representing theexpansivity 120572

119875and especially heat capacities 119862

119875 119862V at high

pressures even if the reliable input data of sound velocity119882(119875 119879) were used

From such a viewpoint one may suppose that the linearin temperature LF-EOS proposed by Sanchez and Lacombe

119875 = minus1205882minus 119879[ln (1 minus 120588) + (1 minus 1

119873119897

)120588] (29)

is restricted to achieve the above goal but can be used as anyunified classical EOS common for both phases to predict theregion of their coexistence Such conjecture is confirmed bythe comparison of FT-EOSwith LF-EOS presented in Figures2 and 4 and discussed belowTheobvious advantage of formeris themore flexibleT-dependence expressed via the cohesive-energy coefficient 119886(119879) On the other hand the LF-EOS istypical form of EOS (see Section 1) in which the constraintof T-independent potential energy 119880( 119903 120588) is inherent [21]

Onemay consider it as the generalized variant of the well-known Bragg-Williams approximation for the ordinary LGpresented here in the dimensional form

It was compared with the simpler form of LF-EOS (29)Their predictions of the low-temperature density at saturation120588119897(119879) are comparable but unfortunately inaccurate (overesti-

mated) even for neutral low-molecular liquidsThe respectivepredictions of the vapor pressure 119875

120590(119879) are reasonable [15]

excepting the region of critical point for both EOSs Ourestimates based on the LF-EOS [14] shown in Figures 2 and 4are consistent with these conclusions

The comparison of volumetricmeasurements andderivedproperties [14 18] with the purely predictive (by the FT-EOS)and empirical (by the Tait EOS and LF-EOS) methodologiesused for [bmim][BF

4] is shown in Figures 6ndash9 Evidently

that former methodology is quite promising Machida et al[14] have reported two correlations of the same (119875 120588 119879)-data measured for [bmim][BF

4] at temperatures from 313 to

473 and pressures up to 200MPa To examine the trends inproperties of ILs with the common cation [bmim] the Taitempirical EOS was preliminarily fitted as the more appropri-ate model The estimate of its extrapolation capatibilities for(119875 120588 119879)-surface in the working range (290 lt 119879K lt 350)follows from the compatibility of experimental points (wherethose measured by de Azevedo et al [18] in the range oftemperature 298 lt 119879K lt 333 and pressure (01 lt 119875MPa lt60) were also included) with the thick curves in Figure 6 It isnoticeable for example that the extrapolated Taitrsquos isothermT = 290K coincides practically with isotherm T = 29834Kfrom [18] because the measured densities of latter source aresystematically higher than those from [14] Density data ofFredlake et al [1] for [bmim][BF

4] (not shown in Figure 6)

are also systematically shifted from measurements [14]

The consequence of such discrepancies is also typical forany simple liquids (Ar Kr Xe) [23] at moderate and highpressures It is impossible to reveal an actualT-dependence ofvolumetric (mechanical) derived functions 120572

119875 120574120588due to sys-

tematic deviations between the data of different investigatorsIn such situation an attempt ldquoto take the bull by the hornsrdquoand to claim the preferable variant of EOS based exclusivelyon volumetric data may be erroneous Indeed since the TaitEOS is explicit in density while the LF-EOSmdashin temperaturethe direct calculation of 120572

120572119875 120574120588-derivatives for latter are motivated To illustrate the

expansivity 120572119875(Figure 7) than those predicted by the Tait

EOS (Figure 9) becomes larger It determines the distinctionsin the calculated internal pressure The choice of the FT-modelrsquos substance as a reference system for the perturbationmethodology provides the set of advantages in comparisonwith the LF-EOS

It follows from Figure 6 that at moderate pressures119875MPa lt 50 the predictive FT-EOS is more accurate than thefitted semiempirical LF-EOS [14] although the discrepanciesof both with the empirical Tait EOS [14] become signifi-cant at the lowest (extrapolated) temperature T = 290K

The Taitrsquos liquid has no trend to (V 119897)-transition (as well aspolymers) in opposite to the clear trends demonstrated byFT-EOS and LF-EOS One may suppose [26] a competitionbetween vaporization of IL (primarily driven by the isotropicdispersive attraction 1119903

6 in RPP) and chain formation(driven mainly by the anisotropic dipolar interactions 11199033)reflected by the Tait EOS fitted to the experimental data Ofcourse such conjecture must be at least confirmed by thecomputer simulations and FT-model provides this possibilityby the consistent estimate of RPP-parameters (120576 120590) at eachtemperature

The differences of calculated expansivity 120572119875in Figure 7

are especially interesting FT-EOS predicts even less variationof it with temperature than that for the Tait EOS This resultand crossing of 120572

119875(119875)-isotherms are qualitatively similar to

those obtained by de Azevedo et al [18] although the pressuredependence of allmechanical (120572

119875 120573119879 120574120588) and caloric (119862

119875 119862V)

derivatives (see Figures 10 11 and 12) is always more signifi-cant for the FT-EOSpredictions It seems that the curvature ofthe 120588(119879)-dependence following from the LF-EOS (29) is notsufficient to predict the 120572

119875(119875) behavior (Figure 7) correctly

The strong influence of the chosen input120588(1198750 119879)-dependence

is obvious from Figures 7ndash9The prediction of caloric derivatives (119862

119901 119862V 119862119901119862VGr)

is the most stringent test for any thermal (119875 120588 119879) EOSIt should be usually controlled [23] by the experimental(119882120588 119879)-surface to use the thermodynamical identities

into account the above distinction in the evaluated (120572119875 119875 119879)-

The remarkable qualitative and even quantitative (lt8)correspondence between the predicted by FT-EOS 119862V-valuesand those reported by de Azevedo et al [18] follows fromFigure 10 At the same time although the discrepanciesbetween 119862

119901-values [18] and those predicted by the FT-

EOS are again within acceptable limits (lt10) the formersdemonstrate the weak maximum and very small pressuredependence for [bmim][BF

4] (for [bmim][PF

6] this 119862

119901(119875)-

dependence is monotonous as well as that predicted by theFT-EOS) It seems that the resultant ratio of heat capacity119862119901119862V shown in Figure 12 which demonstrates the irregular

crossing of isotherms [18] is questionable It suggests thattheir pressure dependence either needs the more accurateapproximation or reflects the realistic distinction of referenceFT-EOS from the actual behavior of [bmim][BF

4]

The lock of noticeable variations in pressure is thecommon feature of integration methodology [18] based onthe given (119882119875 119879)- and (120588 119875 119879)-surfaces The unavoidableaccumulation of uncertainties at each stage of calculationsin the set 119882 minus 119862

119901minus 119862V may cause the unplausible behavior

of adiabatic exponent 119862119901119862V in liquid The same is true for

the set 119862V minus 119862119901 minus 119882 used in the FT-methodology It is themost appropriate explanation of significant discrepancies for119882(119875)-dependence shown in Figure 13 Let us remind alsothat the precise mechanical measurements of speed velocity[18] in the very viscous IL cannot be attributed exactly to thecondition of constant entropy

Thus strictly speaking the measured (119882119875 119879)-surfacereflects the strong dispersive properties of media andmust beless than its thermodynamic counterpart in the ideal (withouta viscosity) liquid

5 Conclusions

There are the structure-forming factors related to the above-discussed thermodynamic characteristic Despite the certaindiscrepancies between the predicted and derived propertiesfor FT-EOS and LF-EOS both ones provide the close esti-mates of structure factors represented in Table 5

Our aim here is to show that the thermodynamically-consistent predictions of thermodynamical properties by theFT-EOS yields also the molecular-based parameters whichare at least realistic (see also Table 3) The estimate ofaverage T-dependent well-depth 120576 by (6b) as well as estimateof average value 119873

119897by (24a) is related to the middle of

temperature range T = 320K The distinction of 120576 from therespective 120576lowast-parameters of LF-EOS [14] can be attributedto the difference between nonbonded interactions in thediscrete (LF-EOS) and continuum (FT-EOS) models of fluidOur estimate of cohesive-energy density 120576coh by equality

120576coh = 1205882(1198750 119879) 119886 (119879) + 120588

119897(119879) 119903120590(119879) (43)

represented in Table 6 seems also physically plausible Mag-inn et al [5 6] have determined it within the frameworkof GEMC-simulations by the knowledge of 120588(119875

0 119879) and

the internal energy difference between an ideal-gas ion pairand the average internal energy of an ion pair in the liquidstate

Such definition indicates that cohesive energy densitiesof many ILs are on the order of 500ndash550 Jcm3 (see forcomparison Table 6) and demonstrate a slight decrease astemperature increases

Another relevant characteristic is the internal pressuredetermined by the derivative of molar (or specific) internalenergy

which is compared to ones calculated by different authors [1416] for [bmim][BF

EOS predicts the much faster change of both cohesive energydensity 120576coh and internal pressure (120597119890120597V)

119879as temperature

increasesOne should collect a large number of precise exper-

imental measurements to reconstruct the thermodynamicsurface of a substance FT-methodology provides a possibilityof preliminary reliable estimates of relevant macroscopicandmolecular-based correlations Its thermodynamic consis-tency provides the serious advantage in comparison with thepurely empiric treatment of any volumetric measurements atthe description of derived heat capacities

119879and 120572

119875calculated by the Tait EOS (26)

The problem of their uncertainties becomes even morecomplex if one takes into account the often existence ofsystematic distinctions of as much as 05 between thedensities measured by different investigators even for thesimplest argon [23] Machida et al [14] for example pointedout the systematic deviations measured densities from thosereported by the de Azevedo et al [18] and Fredlake et al[1] for both [bmim][BF

4] and [bmim][PF

6] Matkowska and

Hofman [19] concluded that the discrepancies between thedifferent sets of calculated 120573

119879- and 120572

119875-derivatives increase

with increasing of 119879 and decreasing of 119875 due not only toexperimental differences in density values but also result fromthe fitting equation used The resultant situation is that theexpansivity 120572

119875of ILs reported in literature was either nearly

independent of T [18] or noticeably dependent of T [3 19]We can add to these observations that the linear in

molar (or specific) volume Tait Eos (26) is inadequate inrepresenting the curvature of the isotherm 119875(120588) at lowpressures It fails completely in description of (V 119897)-transitionwhere the more flexible function of volume is desirableHowever this has been clearly stated and explained by Streettfor liquid argon [23] that the adjustable T-dependence ofempirical EOS becomes the crucial factor in representing theexpansivity 120572

119875and especially heat capacities 119862

119875 119862V at high

pressures even if the reliable input data of sound velocity119882(119875 119879) were used

From such a viewpoint one may suppose that the linearin temperature LF-EOS proposed by Sanchez and Lacombe

is restricted to achieve the above goal but can be used as anyunified classical EOS common for both phases to predict theregion of their coexistence Such conjecture is confirmed bythe comparison of FT-EOSwith LF-EOS presented in Figures2 and 4 and discussed belowTheobvious advantage of formeris themore flexibleT-dependence expressed via the cohesive-energy coefficient 119886(119879) On the other hand the LF-EOS istypical form of EOS (see Section 1) in which the constraintof T-independent potential energy 119880( 119903 120588) is inherent [21]

Onemay consider it as the generalized variant of the well-known Bragg-Williams approximation for the ordinary LGpresented here in the dimensional form

It was compared with the simpler form of LF-EOS (29)Their predictions of the low-temperature density at saturation120588119897(119879) are comparable but unfortunately inaccurate (overesti-

mated) even for neutral low-molecular liquidsThe respectivepredictions of the vapor pressure 119875

120590(119879) are reasonable [15]

excepting the region of critical point for both EOSs Ourestimates based on the LF-EOS [14] shown in Figures 2 and 4are consistent with these conclusions

The comparison of volumetricmeasurements andderivedproperties [14 18] with the purely predictive (by the FT-EOS)and empirical (by the Tait EOS and LF-EOS) methodologiesused for [bmim][BF

4] is shown in Figures 6ndash9 Evidently

that former methodology is quite promising Machida et al[14] have reported two correlations of the same (119875 120588 119879)-data measured for [bmim][BF

4] at temperatures from 313 to

473 and pressures up to 200MPa To examine the trends inproperties of ILs with the common cation [bmim] the Taitempirical EOS was preliminarily fitted as the more appropri-ate model The estimate of its extrapolation capatibilities for(119875 120588 119879)-surface in the working range (290 lt 119879K lt 350)follows from the compatibility of experimental points (wherethose measured by de Azevedo et al [18] in the range oftemperature 298 lt 119879K lt 333 and pressure (01 lt 119875MPa lt60) were also included) with the thick curves in Figure 6 It isnoticeable for example that the extrapolated Taitrsquos isothermT = 290K coincides practically with isotherm T = 29834Kfrom [18] because the measured densities of latter source aresystematically higher than those from [14] Density data ofFredlake et al [1] for [bmim][BF

The consequence of such discrepancies is also typical forany simple liquids (Ar Kr Xe) [23] at moderate and highpressures It is impossible to reveal an actualT-dependence ofvolumetric (mechanical) derived functions 120572

119875 120574120588due to sys-

tematic deviations between the data of different investigatorsIn such situation an attempt ldquoto take the bull by the hornsrdquoand to claim the preferable variant of EOS based exclusivelyon volumetric data may be erroneous Indeed since the TaitEOS is explicit in density while the LF-EOSmdashin temperaturethe direct calculation of 120572

It follows from Figure 6 that at moderate pressures119875MPa lt 50 the predictive FT-EOS is more accurate than thefitted semiempirical LF-EOS [14] although the discrepanciesof both with the empirical Tait EOS [14] become signifi-cant at the lowest (extrapolated) temperature T = 290K

et al [18] (points) on the base of speed velocity and density inputdata

The Taitrsquos liquid has no trend to (V 119897)-transition (as well aspolymers) in opposite to the clear trends demonstrated byFT-EOS and LF-EOS One may suppose [26] a competitionbetween vaporization of IL (primarily driven by the isotropicdispersive attraction 1119903

6 in RPP) and chain formation(driven mainly by the anisotropic dipolar interactions 11199033)reflected by the Tait EOS fitted to the experimental data Ofcourse such conjecture must be at least confirmed by thecomputer simulations and FT-model provides this possibilityby the consistent estimate of RPP-parameters (120576 120590) at eachtemperature

The differences of calculated expansivity 120572119875in Figure 7

are especially interesting FT-EOS predicts even less variationof it with temperature than that for the Tait EOS This resultand crossing of 120572

119875(119875)-isotherms are qualitatively similar to

those obtained by de Azevedo et al [18] although the pressuredependence of allmechanical (120572

119875 120573119879 120574120588) and caloric (119862

119875 119862V)

derivatives (see Figures 10 11 and 12) is always more signifi-cant for the FT-EOSpredictions It seems that the curvature ofthe 120588(119879)-dependence following from the LF-EOS (29) is notsufficient to predict the 120572

119875(119875) behavior (Figure 7) correctly

The strong influence of the chosen input120588(1198750 119879)-dependence

is obvious from Figures 7ndash9The prediction of caloric derivatives (119862

119901 119862V 119862119901119862VGr)

is the most stringent test for any thermal (119875 120588 119879) EOSIt should be usually controlled [23] by the experimental(119882120588 119879)-surface to use the thermodynamical identities

The remarkable qualitative and even quantitative (lt8)correspondence between the predicted by FT-EOS 119862V-valuesand those reported by de Azevedo et al [18] follows fromFigure 10 At the same time although the discrepanciesbetween 119862

119901-values [18] and those predicted by the FT-

EOS are again within acceptable limits (lt10) the formersdemonstrate the weak maximum and very small pressuredependence for [bmim][BF

4] (for [bmim][PF

6] this 119862

119901(119875)-

dependence is monotonous as well as that predicted by theFT-EOS) It seems that the resultant ratio of heat capacity119862119901119862V shown in Figure 12 which demonstrates the irregular

crossing of isotherms [18] is questionable It suggests thattheir pressure dependence either needs the more accurateapproximation or reflects the realistic distinction of referenceFT-EOS from the actual behavior of [bmim][BF

4]

The lock of noticeable variations in pressure is thecommon feature of integration methodology [18] based onthe given (119882119875 119879)- and (120588 119875 119879)-surfaces The unavoidableaccumulation of uncertainties at each stage of calculationsin the set 119882 minus 119862

119901minus 119862V may cause the unplausible behavior

of adiabatic exponent 119862119901119862V in liquid The same is true for

the set 119862V minus 119862119901 minus 119882 used in the FT-methodology It is themost appropriate explanation of significant discrepancies for119882(119875)-dependence shown in Figure 13 Let us remind alsothat the precise mechanical measurements of speed velocity[18] in the very viscous IL cannot be attributed exactly to thecondition of constant entropy

Thus strictly speaking the measured (119882119875 119879)-surfacereflects the strong dispersive properties of media andmust beless than its thermodynamic counterpart in the ideal (withouta viscosity) liquid

5 Conclusions

There are the structure-forming factors related to the above-discussed thermodynamic characteristic Despite the certaindiscrepancies between the predicted and derived propertiesfor FT-EOS and LF-EOS both ones provide the close esti-mates of structure factors represented in Table 5

Our aim here is to show that the thermodynamically-consistent predictions of thermodynamical properties by theFT-EOS yields also the molecular-based parameters whichare at least realistic (see also Table 3) The estimate ofaverage T-dependent well-depth 120576 by (6b) as well as estimateof average value 119873

119897by (24a) is related to the middle of

temperature range T = 320K The distinction of 120576 from therespective 120576lowast-parameters of LF-EOS [14] can be attributedto the difference between nonbonded interactions in thediscrete (LF-EOS) and continuum (FT-EOS) models of fluidOur estimate of cohesive-energy density 120576coh by equality

120576coh = 1205882(1198750 119879) 119886 (119879) + 120588

119897(119879) 119903120590(119879) (43)

represented in Table 6 seems also physically plausible Mag-inn et al [5 6] have determined it within the frameworkof GEMC-simulations by the knowledge of 120588(119875

0 119879) and

the internal energy difference between an ideal-gas ion pairand the average internal energy of an ion pair in the liquidstate

Such definition indicates that cohesive energy densitiesof many ILs are on the order of 500ndash550 Jcm3 (see forcomparison Table 6) and demonstrate a slight decrease astemperature increases

Another relevant characteristic is the internal pressuredetermined by the derivative of molar (or specific) internalenergy

EOS predicts the much faster change of both cohesive energydensity 120576coh and internal pressure (120597119890120597V)

increasesOne should collect a large number of precise exper-

imental measurements to reconstruct the thermodynamicsurface of a substance FT-methodology provides a possibilityof preliminary reliable estimates of relevant macroscopicandmolecular-based correlations Its thermodynamic consis-tency provides the serious advantage in comparison with thepurely empiric treatment of any volumetric measurements atthe description of derived heat capacities

It was compared with the simpler form of LF-EOS (29)Their predictions of the low-temperature density at saturation120588119897(119879) are comparable but unfortunately inaccurate (overesti-

mated) even for neutral low-molecular liquidsThe respectivepredictions of the vapor pressure 119875

120590(119879) are reasonable [15]

excepting the region of critical point for both EOSs Ourestimates based on the LF-EOS [14] shown in Figures 2 and 4are consistent with these conclusions

The comparison of volumetricmeasurements andderivedproperties [14 18] with the purely predictive (by the FT-EOS)and empirical (by the Tait EOS and LF-EOS) methodologiesused for [bmim][BF

4] is shown in Figures 6ndash9 Evidently

that former methodology is quite promising Machida et al[14] have reported two correlations of the same (119875 120588 119879)-data measured for [bmim][BF

4] at temperatures from 313 to

473 and pressures up to 200MPa To examine the trends inproperties of ILs with the common cation [bmim] the Taitempirical EOS was preliminarily fitted as the more appropri-ate model The estimate of its extrapolation capatibilities for(119875 120588 119879)-surface in the working range (290 lt 119879K lt 350)follows from the compatibility of experimental points (wherethose measured by de Azevedo et al [18] in the range oftemperature 298 lt 119879K lt 333 and pressure (01 lt 119875MPa lt60) were also included) with the thick curves in Figure 6 It isnoticeable for example that the extrapolated Taitrsquos isothermT = 290K coincides practically with isotherm T = 29834Kfrom [18] because the measured densities of latter source aresystematically higher than those from [14] Density data ofFredlake et al [1] for [bmim][BF

The consequence of such discrepancies is also typical forany simple liquids (Ar Kr Xe) [23] at moderate and highpressures It is impossible to reveal an actualT-dependence ofvolumetric (mechanical) derived functions 120572

119875 120574120588due to sys-

tematic deviations between the data of different investigatorsIn such situation an attempt ldquoto take the bull by the hornsrdquoand to claim the preferable variant of EOS based exclusivelyon volumetric data may be erroneous Indeed since the TaitEOS is explicit in density while the LF-EOSmdashin temperaturethe direct calculation of 120572

119875 120573119879-derivatives for former and

120572119875 120574120588-derivatives for latter are motivated To illustrate the

expansivity 120572119875(Figure 7) than those predicted by the Tait

EOS (Figure 9) becomes larger It determines the distinctionsin the calculated internal pressure The choice of the FT-modelrsquos substance as a reference system for the perturbationmethodology provides the set of advantages in comparisonwith the LF-EOS

It follows from Figure 6 that at moderate pressures119875MPa lt 50 the predictive FT-EOS is more accurate than thefitted semiempirical LF-EOS [14] although the discrepanciesof both with the empirical Tait EOS [14] become signifi-cant at the lowest (extrapolated) temperature T = 290K

4] (lines) with that evaluated by de Azevedo

et al [18] (points) on the base of speed velocity and density inputdata

The Taitrsquos liquid has no trend to (V 119897)-transition (as well aspolymers) in opposite to the clear trends demonstrated byFT-EOS and LF-EOS One may suppose [26] a competitionbetween vaporization of IL (primarily driven by the isotropicdispersive attraction 1119903

6 in RPP) and chain formation(driven mainly by the anisotropic dipolar interactions 11199033)reflected by the Tait EOS fitted to the experimental data Ofcourse such conjecture must be at least confirmed by thecomputer simulations and FT-model provides this possibilityby the consistent estimate of RPP-parameters (120576 120590) at eachtemperature

The differences of calculated expansivity 120572119875in Figure 7

are especially interesting FT-EOS predicts even less variationof it with temperature than that for the Tait EOS This resultand crossing of 120572

119875(119875)-isotherms are qualitatively similar to

those obtained by de Azevedo et al [18] although the pressuredependence of allmechanical (120572

119875 120573119879 120574120588) and caloric (119862

119875 119862V)

derivatives (see Figures 10 11 and 12) is always more signifi-cant for the FT-EOSpredictions It seems that the curvature ofthe 120588(119879)-dependence following from the LF-EOS (29) is notsufficient to predict the 120572

119875(119875) behavior (Figure 7) correctly

The strong influence of the chosen input120588(1198750 119879)-dependence

is obvious from Figures 7ndash9The prediction of caloric derivatives (119862

also from positive to negative at the respective pressureThis conclusion is not valid because to change the sign ofderivative (120597120572

into account the above distinction in the evaluated (120572119875 119875 119879)-

caloric (119862V 119875 119879)-(119862119901 119875 119879)- and 119862V119862119901-surfaces shown inFigures 10ndash12

The remarkable qualitative and even quantitative (lt8)correspondence between the predicted by FT-EOS 119862V-valuesand those reported by de Azevedo et al [18] follows fromFigure 10 At the same time although the discrepanciesbetween 119862

119901-values [18] and those predicted by the FT-

EOS are again within acceptable limits (lt10) the formersdemonstrate the weak maximum and very small pressuredependence for [bmim][BF

4] (for [bmim][PF

6] this 119862

119901(119875)-

dependence is monotonous as well as that predicted by theFT-EOS) It seems that the resultant ratio of heat capacity119862119901119862V shown in Figure 12 which demonstrates the irregular

crossing of isotherms [18] is questionable It suggests thattheir pressure dependence either needs the more accurateapproximation or reflects the realistic distinction of referenceFT-EOS from the actual behavior of [bmim][BF

4]

The lock of noticeable variations in pressure is thecommon feature of integration methodology [18] based onthe given (119882119875 119879)- and (120588 119875 119879)-surfaces The unavoidableaccumulation of uncertainties at each stage of calculationsin the set 119882 minus 119862

119901minus 119862V may cause the unplausible behavior

of adiabatic exponent 119862119901119862V in liquid The same is true for

the set 119862V minus 119862119901 minus 119882 used in the FT-methodology It is themost appropriate explanation of significant discrepancies for119882(119875)-dependence shown in Figure 13 Let us remind alsothat the precise mechanical measurements of speed velocity[18] in the very viscous IL cannot be attributed exactly to thecondition of constant entropy

Thus strictly speaking the measured (119882119875 119879)-surfacereflects the strong dispersive properties of media andmust beless than its thermodynamic counterpart in the ideal (withouta viscosity) liquid

5 Conclusions

There are the structure-forming factors related to the above-discussed thermodynamic characteristic Despite the certaindiscrepancies between the predicted and derived propertiesfor FT-EOS and LF-EOS both ones provide the close esti-mates of structure factors represented in Table 5

Our aim here is to show that the thermodynamically-consistent predictions of thermodynamical properties by theFT-EOS yields also the molecular-based parameters whichare at least realistic (see also Table 3) The estimate ofaverage T-dependent well-depth 120576 by (6b) as well as estimateof average value 119873

119897by (24a) is related to the middle of

temperature range T = 320K The distinction of 120576 from therespective 120576lowast-parameters of LF-EOS [14] can be attributedto the difference between nonbonded interactions in thediscrete (LF-EOS) and continuum (FT-EOS) models of fluidOur estimate of cohesive-energy density 120576coh by equality

120576coh = 1205882(1198750 119879) 119886 (119879) + 120588

119897(119879) 119903120590(119879) (43)

represented in Table 6 seems also physically plausible Mag-inn et al [5 6] have determined it within the frameworkof GEMC-simulations by the knowledge of 120588(119875

0 119879) and

the internal energy difference between an ideal-gas ion pairand the average internal energy of an ion pair in the liquidstate

Such definition indicates that cohesive energy densitiesof many ILs are on the order of 500ndash550 Jcm3 (see forcomparison Table 6) and demonstrate a slight decrease astemperature increases

Another relevant characteristic is the internal pressuredetermined by the derivative of molar (or specific) internalenergy

which is compared to ones calculated by different authors [1416] for [bmim][BF

EOS predicts the much faster change of both cohesive energydensity 120576coh and internal pressure (120597119890120597V)

119879as temperature

increasesOne should collect a large number of precise exper-

imental measurements to reconstruct the thermodynamicsurface of a substance FT-methodology provides a possibilityof preliminary reliable estimates of relevant macroscopicandmolecular-based correlations Its thermodynamic consis-tency provides the serious advantage in comparison with thepurely empiric treatment of any volumetric measurements atthe description of derived heat capacities

The Taitrsquos liquid has no trend to (V 119897)-transition (as well aspolymers) in opposite to the clear trends demonstrated byFT-EOS and LF-EOS One may suppose [26] a competitionbetween vaporization of IL (primarily driven by the isotropicdispersive attraction 1119903

6 in RPP) and chain formation(driven mainly by the anisotropic dipolar interactions 11199033)reflected by the Tait EOS fitted to the experimental data Ofcourse such conjecture must be at least confirmed by thecomputer simulations and FT-model provides this possibilityby the consistent estimate of RPP-parameters (120576 120590) at eachtemperature

The differences of calculated expansivity 120572119875in Figure 7

are especially interesting FT-EOS predicts even less variationof it with temperature than that for the Tait EOS This resultand crossing of 120572

119875(119875)-isotherms are qualitatively similar to

those obtained by de Azevedo et al [18] although the pressuredependence of allmechanical (120572

119875 120573119879 120574120588) and caloric (119862

119875 119862V)

derivatives (see Figures 10 11 and 12) is always more signifi-cant for the FT-EOSpredictions It seems that the curvature ofthe 120588(119879)-dependence following from the LF-EOS (29) is notsufficient to predict the 120572

119875(119875) behavior (Figure 7) correctly

The strong influence of the chosen input120588(1198750 119879)-dependence

is obvious from Figures 7ndash9The prediction of caloric derivatives (119862

119901 119862V 119862119901119862VGr)

is the most stringent test for any thermal (119875 120588 119879) EOSIt should be usually controlled [23] by the experimental(119882120588 119879)-surface to use the thermodynamical identities

also from positive to negative at the respective pressureThis conclusion is not valid because to change the sign ofderivative (120597120572

into account the above distinction in the evaluated (120572119875 119875 119879)-

The remarkable qualitative and even quantitative (lt8)correspondence between the predicted by FT-EOS 119862V-valuesand those reported by de Azevedo et al [18] follows fromFigure 10 At the same time although the discrepanciesbetween 119862

119901-values [18] and those predicted by the FT-

EOS are again within acceptable limits (lt10) the formersdemonstrate the weak maximum and very small pressuredependence for [bmim][BF

4] (for [bmim][PF

6] this 119862

119901(119875)-

dependence is monotonous as well as that predicted by theFT-EOS) It seems that the resultant ratio of heat capacity119862119901119862V shown in Figure 12 which demonstrates the irregular

crossing of isotherms [18] is questionable It suggests thattheir pressure dependence either needs the more accurateapproximation or reflects the realistic distinction of referenceFT-EOS from the actual behavior of [bmim][BF

4]

The lock of noticeable variations in pressure is thecommon feature of integration methodology [18] based onthe given (119882119875 119879)- and (120588 119875 119879)-surfaces The unavoidableaccumulation of uncertainties at each stage of calculationsin the set 119882 minus 119862

119901minus 119862V may cause the unplausible behavior

of adiabatic exponent 119862119901119862V in liquid The same is true for

the set 119862V minus 119862119901 minus 119882 used in the FT-methodology It is themost appropriate explanation of significant discrepancies for119882(119875)-dependence shown in Figure 13 Let us remind alsothat the precise mechanical measurements of speed velocity[18] in the very viscous IL cannot be attributed exactly to thecondition of constant entropy

Thus strictly speaking the measured (119882119875 119879)-surfacereflects the strong dispersive properties of media andmust beless than its thermodynamic counterpart in the ideal (withouta viscosity) liquid

5 Conclusions

There are the structure-forming factors related to the above-discussed thermodynamic characteristic Despite the certaindiscrepancies between the predicted and derived propertiesfor FT-EOS and LF-EOS both ones provide the close esti-mates of structure factors represented in Table 5

Our aim here is to show that the thermodynamically-consistent predictions of thermodynamical properties by theFT-EOS yields also the molecular-based parameters whichare at least realistic (see also Table 3) The estimate ofaverage T-dependent well-depth 120576 by (6b) as well as estimateof average value 119873

119897by (24a) is related to the middle of

temperature range T = 320K The distinction of 120576 from therespective 120576lowast-parameters of LF-EOS [14] can be attributedto the difference between nonbonded interactions in thediscrete (LF-EOS) and continuum (FT-EOS) models of fluidOur estimate of cohesive-energy density 120576coh by equality

120576coh = 1205882(1198750 119879) 119886 (119879) + 120588

119897(119879) 119903120590(119879) (43)

represented in Table 6 seems also physically plausible Mag-inn et al [5 6] have determined it within the frameworkof GEMC-simulations by the knowledge of 120588(119875

0 119879) and

the internal energy difference between an ideal-gas ion pairand the average internal energy of an ion pair in the liquidstate

Such definition indicates that cohesive energy densitiesof many ILs are on the order of 500ndash550 Jcm3 (see forcomparison Table 6) and demonstrate a slight decrease astemperature increases

Another relevant characteristic is the internal pressuredetermined by the derivative of molar (or specific) internalenergy

which is compared to ones calculated by different authors [1416] for [bmim][BF

EOS predicts the much faster change of both cohesive energydensity 120576coh and internal pressure (120597119890120597V)

increasesOne should collect a large number of precise exper-

imental measurements to reconstruct the thermodynamicsurface of a substance FT-methodology provides a possibilityof preliminary reliable estimates of relevant macroscopicandmolecular-based correlations Its thermodynamic consis-tency provides the serious advantage in comparison with thepurely empiric treatment of any volumetric measurements atthe description of derived heat capacities

also from positive to negative at the respective pressureThis conclusion is not valid because to change the sign ofderivative (120597120572

The remarkable qualitative and even quantitative (lt8)correspondence between the predicted by FT-EOS 119862V-valuesand those reported by de Azevedo et al [18] follows fromFigure 10 At the same time although the discrepanciesbetween 119862

119901-values [18] and those predicted by the FT-

EOS are again within acceptable limits (lt10) the formersdemonstrate the weak maximum and very small pressuredependence for [bmim][BF

4] (for [bmim][PF

6] this 119862

119901(119875)-

dependence is monotonous as well as that predicted by theFT-EOS) It seems that the resultant ratio of heat capacity119862119901119862V shown in Figure 12 which demonstrates the irregular

crossing of isotherms [18] is questionable It suggests thattheir pressure dependence either needs the more accurateapproximation or reflects the realistic distinction of referenceFT-EOS from the actual behavior of [bmim][BF

4]

The lock of noticeable variations in pressure is thecommon feature of integration methodology [18] based onthe given (119882119875 119879)- and (120588 119875 119879)-surfaces The unavoidableaccumulation of uncertainties at each stage of calculationsin the set 119882 minus 119862

119901minus 119862V may cause the unplausible behavior

of adiabatic exponent 119862119901119862V in liquid The same is true for

the set 119862V minus 119862119901 minus 119882 used in the FT-methodology It is themost appropriate explanation of significant discrepancies for119882(119875)-dependence shown in Figure 13 Let us remind alsothat the precise mechanical measurements of speed velocity[18] in the very viscous IL cannot be attributed exactly to thecondition of constant entropy

Thus strictly speaking the measured (119882119875 119879)-surfacereflects the strong dispersive properties of media andmust beless than its thermodynamic counterpart in the ideal (withouta viscosity) liquid

5 Conclusions

There are the structure-forming factors related to the above-discussed thermodynamic characteristic Despite the certaindiscrepancies between the predicted and derived propertiesfor FT-EOS and LF-EOS both ones provide the close esti-mates of structure factors represented in Table 5

Our aim here is to show that the thermodynamically-consistent predictions of thermodynamical properties by theFT-EOS yields also the molecular-based parameters whichare at least realistic (see also Table 3) The estimate ofaverage T-dependent well-depth 120576 by (6b) as well as estimateof average value 119873

119897by (24a) is related to the middle of

temperature range T = 320K The distinction of 120576 from therespective 120576lowast-parameters of LF-EOS [14] can be attributedto the difference between nonbonded interactions in thediscrete (LF-EOS) and continuum (FT-EOS) models of fluidOur estimate of cohesive-energy density 120576coh by equality

120576coh = 1205882(1198750 119879) 119886 (119879) + 120588

119897(119879) 119903120590(119879) (43)

represented in Table 6 seems also physically plausible Mag-inn et al [5 6] have determined it within the frameworkof GEMC-simulations by the knowledge of 120588(119875

0 119879) and

14 Journal of Thermodynamics

the internal energy difference between an ideal-gas ion pairand the average internal energy of an ion pair in the liquidstate

Such definition indicates that cohesive energy densitiesof many ILs are on the order of 500ndash550 Jcm3 (see forcomparison Table 6) and demonstrate a slight decrease astemperature increases

Another relevant characteristic is the internal pressuredetermined by the derivative of molar (or specific) internalenergy

which is compared to ones calculated by different authors [1416] for [bmim][BF

EOS predicts the much faster change of both cohesive energydensity 120576coh and internal pressure (120597119890120597V)

increasesOne should collect a large number of precise exper-

imental measurements to reconstruct the thermodynamicsurface of a substance FT-methodology provides a possibilityof preliminary reliable estimates of relevant macroscopicandmolecular-based correlations Its thermodynamic consis-tency provides the serious advantage in comparison with thepurely empiric treatment of any volumetric measurements atthe description of derived heat capacities

the set 119862V minus 119862119901 minus 119882 used in the FT-methodology It is themost appropriate explanation of significant discrepancies for119882(119875)-dependence shown in Figure 13 Let us remind alsothat the precise mechanical measurements of speed velocity[18] in the very viscous IL cannot be attributed exactly to thecondition of constant entropy

Thus strictly speaking the measured (119882119875 119879)-surfacereflects the strong dispersive properties of media andmust beless than its thermodynamic counterpart in the ideal (withouta viscosity) liquid

5 Conclusions

There are the structure-forming factors related to the above-discussed thermodynamic characteristic Despite the certaindiscrepancies between the predicted and derived propertiesfor FT-EOS and LF-EOS both ones provide the close esti-mates of structure factors represented in Table 5

Our aim here is to show that the thermodynamically-consistent predictions of thermodynamical properties by theFT-EOS yields also the molecular-based parameters whichare at least realistic (see also Table 3) The estimate ofaverage T-dependent well-depth 120576 by (6b) as well as estimateof average value 119873

119897by (24a) is related to the middle of

temperature range T = 320K The distinction of 120576 from therespective 120576lowast-parameters of LF-EOS [14] can be attributedto the difference between nonbonded interactions in thediscrete (LF-EOS) and continuum (FT-EOS) models of fluidOur estimate of cohesive-energy density 120576coh by equality

120576coh = 1205882(1198750 119879) 119886 (119879) + 120588

119897(119879) 119903120590(119879) (43)

represented in Table 6 seems also physically plausible Mag-inn et al [5 6] have determined it within the frameworkof GEMC-simulations by the knowledge of 120588(119875

0 119879) and

the internal energy difference between an ideal-gas ion pairand the average internal energy of an ion pair in the liquidstate

Such definition indicates that cohesive energy densitiesof many ILs are on the order of 500ndash550 Jcm3 (see forcomparison Table 6) and demonstrate a slight decrease astemperature increases

Another relevant characteristic is the internal pressuredetermined by the derivative of molar (or specific) internalenergy

which is compared to ones calculated by different authors [1416] for [bmim][BF

EOS predicts the much faster change of both cohesive energydensity 120576coh and internal pressure (120597119890120597V)

119879as temperature

increasesOne should collect a large number of precise exper-

imental measurements to reconstruct the thermodynamicsurface of a substance FT-methodology provides a possibilityof preliminary reliable estimates of relevant macroscopicandmolecular-based correlations Its thermodynamic consis-tency provides the serious advantage in comparison with thepurely empiric treatment of any volumetric measurements atthe description of derived heat capacities
