7、.2 Solvents are also classified according to their hydro-gen bonding power,g.Numerical values for g may be derivedfrom spectroscopic analysis.In one method,2g is defined asone-tenth the wavenumber shift observed by Gordys tech-nique,3and values range from 0 to about 25.Another method,4which limits v

9、 alcohols,amines,and acids have high values.2.1.3 The solubility parameter dm,of a mixture of solventshaving parameters,d1,d2,etc.,is a function of the molarfraction and molar volume of the components:d1x1V11 d2x2V2!/x1V11 x2V2!(3)in which x1and V1,x2and V2,etc.,are the correspondingmolar fractions
