Abstract: Viscosity and density measurements for NaI, KI , BU4NI, LiCl and KCl in various mixtures of water with tert-butyl alcohol and tert-butylamine have been carried out at 298.15 K. The viscosity data have been analysed on the basis of the Jones-Dole equation and viscosity B-coefficients have been evaluated. The small and positive values of B coefficients for LiCl in mixed liquid solvents as observed in both systems lead to the conclusion that ion-solvent interaction is not strong. The B coefficients for hydrophobic Bu4NI are large, positive and fairly constant for both systems probably due to the absence of specific hydration and solvation effects. The values of B coefficient for KCl exhibit a minimum in the water-rich region for both systems. However, the solvent composition dependence of B coefficients for both NaI and KI electrolytes are drastically different in the two solvent systems. The viscosity B coefficients for NaI and KI are significantly reduced in tert-butylamine-rich mixtures while in tert-butyl alcohol-rich mixtures they increase profoundly compared to water-rich mixtures. Values of the partial molar volumes of the electrolytes at infinite dilution in the various solvent mixtures have been evaluated from the density measurements.
