Abstract
Mutual diffusion in multicomponent liquids is studied. It is taken into consideration that the influence of complex formation on the diffusion process may be substantial. The theory is applied to analyze mass transfer in an acetone-chloroform solution. The molecular complex concentration was obtained from the analysis of Fourier transform infrared spectra of this solution. Taking into account molecular complex formation allows one to explain the experimental dependence of diffusion coefficients on the composition (components concentration). The accuracy of experimental and theoretical data descriptions in the frame of our model is compared to the accuracy for some other approaches.
