Excess molar enthalpies reveal that interactions between like molecules dominate in 2-undecanone + n-alkane mixtures, but structural effects can lead to surprising negative excess molar volumes.

Seemingly contradictory thermodynamic properties – positive excess enthalpies and negative excess volumes – reveal complex interplay of interactions and structural effects in iodobenzene/1-iodonaphthalene + n-alkane mixtures.
