Abstract
Surface tension and bulk properties (nuclear magnetic resonance spectra and self-diffusion coefficients) for aqueous solutions of tert-butyl alcohol are investigated. It is shown that the surface properties of water persist at low concentrations of the alcohol (Henry's region) whereas at high alcohol concentrations the surface tension decreases with the molar fraction of the tert-butyl alcohol. As shown, translational mobility of the alcohol molecules reduces with its concentration in water.
