The experimental densities and sound speeds were used for calculation the apparent molar volume (Vφ), limiting apparent molar volume (Vφ0), apparent molar isentropic compressibility (κφ), limiting apparent molar isentropic compressibility (κφ0), and also the transfer molar volume (ΔtranVφ0) and isentropic compressibility (Δtranκφ0) of [Ch][AA] from water to aqueous polymer solutions. Moreover, the viscosity B-coefficient, hydration number (nH), transfer viscosity B-coefficient (ΔtranB), free energies of activation per mole of solvent (Δμ10≠) and solute (Δμ20≠) have been computed by the help of experimental viscosities measured for the studied solutions. These quantities are useful for evaluation the ILs solvation behaviour, their structure-making or breaking abilities in the presence of polymer in water medium and also the solute-...
