Group additivity equations of state for aqueous organic molecules have been generated by combining the revised Helgeson-Kirkham-Flowers (HKF) equations of state (Shock and Helgeson, 1988, 1990; Tanger and Helgeson, 1988; Shock et al., 1989, 1992) with experimental values of the standard molal properties of aqueous alkanes, alkanols, alkylbenzenes, car☐ylic acids, amides, and amines. Equations of state parameters for the groups represented by -CH2-, -CH3, -CHCH3-, -C6H5, -CH2OH, -COOH, -CONH2, and -CH2NH2 were determined by regression of the experimental data. This procedure permits calculation of the standard molal thermodynamic properties of these groups at elevated temperatures and pressures. Although curves representing the apparent standard molal Gibbs free energies (ΔG°) and enthalpies (ΔH°) of formation, and the standard molal entropies (S°) of the groups as a function of temperature and pressure are respectively similar for each of them, the temperature dependence of the standard molal heat capacities (Cp°) and volumes (V°) of a number of the groups are quite different from one another. For example, the standard molal heat capacities of the hydrocarbon groups minimize with increasing temperature, but those of -CH2OH and -CH2NH2 maximize. Computed values of ΔG°, ΔH°, S°, Cp°, V°, and the equations of state parameters for the various groups were used together with group additivity relations to generate corresponding values of these properties for aqueous n-alkanes, 2-methylalkanes, n-alkylbenzenes, n-alkanols, n-car☐ylic acids, n-amides, and n-amines at temperatures ≤ 250°C and pressures ≤ 1 kbar. The validity and generality of the equations of state are supported by the fact that predicted equilibrium constants for liquid n-alkane solubility reactions in water compare favorably with experimental values reported in the literature for temperatures as high as 200°C. Furthermore, equilibrium constants for aqueous ethane coexisting with ethene at 325 and 350°C at 350 bars predicted from the equations of state are in close agreement with independently determined experimental values reported by Seewald (1994). The standard molal thermodynamic properties and equations of state parameters reported below provide the means to characterize the thermodynamic behavior of a wide variety of aqueous organic species involved in hydrothermal reactions at elevated temperatures and pressures.
