The ideal gas thermodynamic properties of isobaric heat capacity, entropy, and enthalpy have been correlated for benzene, toluene, o-xylene, m-xylene, and p-xylene by a uniform, semiempirical function of temperature. The correlation is based on literature values calculated from statistical mechanics for temperature up to 1,500K for benzene and up to 3,000K for the other molecules. The temperature function chosen is more accurate than that used for previous correlations, and can be used in a wider temperature range.
