Thermodynamic Parameters for Transfer of Hydrocarbons from Water to Interior of Dodecyl Sulfate Micelles and from Water to Pure Liquid

Thermodynamic Parameters for Transfer of Hydrocarbons from Water to Interior of Dodecyl Sulfate Micelles and from Water to Pure Liquid Hydrocarbon State

Hydrocarbon	Water --> Micelle Interior			Water --> Pure Liquid Hydrocarbon
Hydrocarbon	ΔG^o (kcal/mol)	ΔH^o (kcal/mol)	ΔS^o (cal/deg mol)	ΔG^o (kcal/mol)	ΔH^o (kcal/mol)	ΔS^o (cal/deg mol)
Ethane	-3.45	+2.0	+18.3	-3.9	+2.5	+21
Propane	-4.23	+1.0	+17.5	-4.9	+1.7	+22
Butane	-5.13	0	+17.2	-5.9	+0.8	+23
