Abstract: Density (ρ), and dielectric permittivity (ε) of the binary mixture of ethylene glycol + 1- propanol have been determined as a function of mole fraction of ethylene glycol at T = (298, 308 and 313)K. These measurements have been employed to compute thermodynamic properties like molar volume (V), and molar polarization (P) of the liquid mixtures. Excess properties such as VE, εE and PE for the binary mixture have also been calculated at different temperatures. In order to calculate the standard deviations of the excess properties, Redlich – Kister polynomial equation was used. The negative and positive values of the excess properties predicted the type and strength of molecular interactions between the components in the binary mixture. The excess molar volume for the mixture at all temperatures is found to be negative. The εE values for ethylene glycol + 1-propanol has been found to be negative at 298K and but positive values are obtained at 308 and 313K. The divergent magnitudes of εE values at different temperatures have been attributed to different strengths of hydrogen bond interactions as well as alignments of net dipoles.
