Sign and magnitude of these properties have been utilized to illustrate the molecular interactions occurring in the systems. Moreover, Lorentz-Lorenz, Gladstone-Dale, Wiener, Heller, AragoBiot, Eykrnan and Oster relations have been used for theoretical prediction of refractive indices of all the solutions selected for the present study.
