Methanol-ethanol mixtures under ambient conditions of temperature and pressure are studied by computer simulations, with the aim to sort out how the ideality of this type of mixtures differs from that of a textbook example of an ideal mixture. This study reveals two types of ideality, one which is related to simple disorder, such as in benzene-cyclohexane mixtures, and another found in complex disorder mixtures of associated liquids. It underlines the importance of distinguishing between…

Non-associative neat liquids benzene, acetone and carbon tetrachloride have been examined via molecular dynamics simulations and the general trends of the calculated data provide a benchmark for the behavior of neat simple liquids which will be built upon in the cases of mixtures with associative liquids.

Substituting benzene for water in computer simulations of binary mixtures allows one to study the various forms of disorder, without the complications often encountered in aqueous mixtures, and confirms the existence of a pre-peak in the structure factor associated with the micro-heterogeneity.

It is demonstrated, through a proper handling of the tail of the correlation functions, that these high values of the Kirkwood-Buff integrals represent in fact a transient regime within the segregated spatial domains, and that they asymptotically settle down to values in much better agreement with the experimental ones.

The study shows that these mixtures become closer to the emulsion type seen in aqueous alcohol mixtures, with more globular clustering of the water molecules, long range domain oscillations in the water-water correlations and increased water- water Kirkwood-Buff integrals.

It is argued herein that deficiencies of existing classical water and acetone models provide an insightful picture of the microscopic structure of the solution, particularly into the relation between the hydrogen-bond network and the concentration fluctuations, as well as the role played by the solute in their spatial organization.

The issue of whether or not the Kirkwood-Buff integrals represent solely concentration fluctuations is settled by showing the contribution of the micro-heterogeneity to these integrals through the presence of an associated pre-peak in the structure factors.
