Abstract

We present a fast and reliable general estimation of the heat capacity, C-p, and temperature-dependent density, rho, of ionic liquids, based on a new in silico method to calculate the molecular volume, V-m. The knowledge of Vm allows the prediction of many physical properties of hitherto unknown ionic liquids as. well as the prediction of lattice energies and entropies of salts.
