	abstract = {The so-called "Koga line" is a collection of the loci of anomalies in various third derivatives of the Gibbs function, G, in the temperature-mole fraction field for aqueous solutions of nonelectrolytes. This splits the H2O-rich region into two, in each of which the molecular organization and interactions-we call it mixing scheme-is qualitatively different. In this work, we attempt to locate the high temperature end of the Koga line. This is a particularly interesting range of the boundary, since its extrapolation to zero Solute concentration provides information on possible temperature induced changes in the properties of pure water. To this end, we determine semi-isobaric heat capacities of aqueous 2-butoxyethanol by adiabatic calorimetry up to a maximum of 95 degrees C. The corrections due to vaporization were not applied due to the lack of required vapor pressure and thermal expansivity data. Furthermore, we measured directly the isobaric heat capacities per molar volume for aqueous I-propanol as well as 2-butoxyethanol by differential scanning calorimetry up to 120 degrees C at 3 atm. We then took one more temperature derivative of the respective heat capacity data. The resulting third derivative quantities from the former data showed step-type anomalies, while those from the latter negative peak-type anomalies. The loci of these anomalous points seem to point to about 70 degrees C at infinite dilution.},

	abstract = {In our previous thermodynamic studies, we suggested that alcohol molecules in water-poor water + alcohol mixtures exist as alcohol clusters in a form similar to the pure alcohols. Here, we use calorimetry and densitometry to investigate how H2O interacts with alcohol clusters in water-poor binary aqueous mixtures of 12 different alcohols. The composition dependence of the measured excess partial molar enthalpy and volume of water (H-W(E) and V-W(E)), along with entropy data calculated from H-W(E) and literature data for excess chemical potentials, showed that in water-poor solutions of small alcohols such as methanol, ethanol, and 1-propanol, mutual water-water interactions are endothermic, but entropically favorable. Conversely, in long-chain solvents such as 1-octanol and 1-decanol, the interaction is exothermic and entropically unfavorable. We suggest that these observations reflect water-alcohol hydrogen bonding in short-chain solvents and water clustering with more hydrogen bonding than in pure water or "dewetting" in mixtures of the longer alcohols, respectively. The composition dependence of H-W(E) was also used to locate anomalies that specify the boundary between the mixing schemes characterizing the intermediate and the water-poor regions of alcohol + water mixtures.},

	abstract = {The classical concept of "iceberg formation" is modified by our recent thermodynamic studies. The local enhancement of the hydrogen-bond network of H2O in the immediate vicinity of small nonelectrolyte solutes (i.e., the "iceberg formation") is still correct. However, the hydrogen-bond probability of bulk H2O away from solutes is reduced progressively, as the solute composition increases. When the hydrogen-bond probability of bulk H2O is reduced to the bond percolation threshold of the hexagonal ice connectivity, the hydrogen-bond percolation is lost and a qualitatively different mixing scheme sets in, whereby the solution consists of two kinds of clusters. In the solute-rich region, solute molecules form Clusters of its own kind. Thus, the "iceberg, formation" is basically correct within a narrow range in the H2O-rich region for small nonelectrolyte solutes. Thus, reference made to the "iceberg" concept in recent literatures should be clarified in terms of the concentration range and the size of solute in question.},

	abstract = {Speeds of sound were measured at 25 degrees C in the water-rich region of aqueous 2-butoxyethanol (BE) and 2-butanone (BUT). Density, heat capacity, and thermal expansivity data available in literature were used to calculate isothermal compressibilities, kappa(T). The composition derivative, N(partial derivative kappa(T)/partial derivative n(B)), a third derivative of Gibbs free energy, showed a peak anomaly at x(BE) = 0.0175 for BE-H2O, and bend at x(BUT) = 0.033 for BUT-H2O. n(B) (n(BE) or n(BUT)) is the amount of the solute and x(BE) and x(BUT) are the respective mole fractions. The location of these anomalies were the same as those of other third derivatives found earlier for the same aqueous solutions. These anomalies were shown earlier to mark the transition point across which the mixing scheme changes in a qualitative fashion.},
