Volumetric and viscometric properties of solutions containing barium bromide in an aqueous solution of ethylene glycol and 1,4-dioxane have been discussed at different temperatures such as 298.15K 303.15K, 308.15K, and 313.15K. The Masson’s equation was used to determine the apparent molar volume, V_ϕ, standard partial molar volume, V_ϕ^0, molar expansibilities,E_ϕ^0 by taking the density data. The values of viscosity and density were used in the Jones-Dole equation to find the viscosity B coefficients, which were used to estimate the ion-solvent interactions. The values of Hepler’s constant (∂^2 V_ϕ^0/ ∂T2)p and the viscosity B-coefficients have been used to deduce the solvent structure-promoting or structure breaking tendency of the salt in the studied mixtures. In the current study, the positive values of Hepler’s constant and the negative values of dB/dT show that barium bromide in the considered solvents mainly behaves as a structure promoter.
