TLDR
In this paper, it was shown that the velocity of sound cannot be a proper basis of comparison in any homologous series and the result of plotting the constant R against the molecular weight of members of a homology series leads to the equation R = αM + β, where α is a general constant and β a characteristic constant for any one homology.Abstract:
A study of the recently obtained data on the velocity of sound and density in liquids reveals a simple relation between these quantities namely the law, v⅓M/ρ = R where v is the velocity of sound in the liquid, M the molecular weight, ρ the density and R a constant independent of temperature. It is shown that the velocity of sound cannot be a proper basis of comparison in any homologous series. The result of plotting the constant R against the molecular weight of members of homologous series leads to the equation R = αM + β where α is a general constant and β a characteristic constant for any one homologous series. The difference in R for successive members of homologous series is a constant independent of the series and R is an additive function of the chemical structure. Values of R for hydrogen, carbon, oxygen, bromine, and chlorine are tabulated.read more

TL;DR: In this paper, the relation between the speed of sound (u) in biodiesel and the change in Gibbs energy (G) has not been described in the literature, but it can be expressed as ln(u2) = g/RT + A, where R is the universal gas constant, T is the absolute temperature, and A is a constant.
Seismic velocity decrement ratios for regions of partial melt near the core-mantle boundary
TL;DR: In this article, the velocity decrement ratio (relative change in shear velocity over relative change of compressional velocity) of regions close to the core-mantle boundary was shown to be about 3.
