Densities, ρ, and speed of sound, u, of
binary mixtures of decan-1-ol with cyclohexane, cyclohexanone, or
cyclohexylamine have been measured over the entire range of compositions
at (298.15 and 303.15) K and at a pressure of 0.1 MPa. From these
experimental data, the excess molar volumes, V

E,0 and Beyer’s
parameters of nonlinearity, B/A,
were also calculated. Redlich–Kister polynomial equations were
used to fit the excess properties to ensure the accuracy of the experimental
data. Numerous empirical correlations were tested to correlate the
speed of sound data in which only some correlated well in this study.
