    For this sub-group of binary aqueous liquid mixtures, \({\mathrm{G}_{\mathrm{m}}}^{\mathrm{E}}\) is positive. An example of such a mixture is ‘water + ethanenitrile’. The positive \({\mathrm{G}_{\mathrm{m}}}^{\mathrm{E}}\) reflects endothermic mixing across nearly all the mole fraction range. These mixtures have a tendency to be partially miscible with an Upper Critical Solution Temperature, UCST. For aqueous mixtures the composition at the UCST is often ‘water-rich’. For ethanenitrile + water, the UCST is \(272 \mathrm{~K}\). The positive \({\mathrm{G}_{\mathrm{m}}}^{\mathrm{E}}\) and endothermic mixing are attributed to disruption of water-water hydrogen bonding by added mathrm{MeCN}; cf. \(\mathrm{CCl}_{4} + \mathrm{~MeOH}\) [1,2].
