Relationship between V : -Y of decahydronaphthalenes and rrof solvents at 298.15 K (0) trans form; (0) cis form; (1) hexane, (2) cyclohexane, (3) carbon tetrachloride, (4) chloroform, (5) benzene, (6) Pd' ioxane.than that of cis form. The values listed in Table I demonstrates that in every case V2(cis) < V:(trans) and that the relative magnitude of the volume difference { V:(cis) -Y:(trans))/ V:(trans) takes the similar values (2.9-3.5%), irrespective of the compressibility of solvent system. This relative magnitude of the volume difference is in fairly good agreement with the result (4.3 -4.5%) shown in Figure 2.In Table 11, it is apparent that the partial molar volumes of hexane and d i o x a n e are independent of the conformation of the solvent decahydronaphthalene. This fact corresponds to the results calculated for the condition of constant pressure and shown by the symbol A in Figure 8. Relationship between V : and KT of Solvents. It is interestingto examine eq 8 using the experimental results. Instead of V,Owe have plotted in Figure 9 the values of AY = V: -Yof decahydronaphthalene against experimentally determined KT values of the solvents. The correlation between AVand KT is evident.Thus we may say that amount of variation of V: values with solvent is principally determined, at least for nonelectrolyte solute dissolved in nonionic solvents, by the compressibility of the solvent.In conclusion, we have succeeded in predicting the observed Y, O behavior of transand cisdecahydronaphthalene by combining the RISM calculation and the Kirkwood-Buff theory.Registry No. trans-Decalin, 493-02-7; cis-decalin, 493-01 -6; hexane, 110-54-3; p-dioxane, 123-91-1.

C.In addition to the well-known vitreous but unfreezable water fraction of up to 0.3-0.4 (g of water)/(g of protein), a further water fraction of between ~0 . 4 and 0.7 (g of water)/(g of protein) was vitrified in samples of hydrated methemoglobin by moderate rates of cooling of up to =170 K min-I. The latter type of water started to crystallize at ~2 1 0 K to cubic ice and at =240 K to hexagonal ice as seen by X-ray diffraction. Measurements by differential scanning calorimetry have shown that this vitreous but freezable water fraction undergoes, on reheating at a rate of 30 K min-I, a glass-liquid transition with an onset temperature of 169 f 2 K, with a width of =14O and an increase in heat capacity of =30 J K-' (mol of crystallizable water)-l but that the glass transition disappears upon crystallization of the freezable water. Similar behavior has been reported recently for water imbibed in the pores of a hydrogel. The vitreous but freezable water fraction must be either due to water in sukwquent layers or due to water enclosed in pores and/or loops of the protein's chains. Its similarity in behavior to water in the pores of a hydrogel is suggesti...
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
