Because of the tunable properties of ionic liquids, they are considered perfectly "designed" and "green" solvents. Understanding the physical and chemical properties of ionic liquids is essential for the enormous potential application of ionic liquids in different industrial and technological processes. Although the number of articles on ILs is increasing exponentially, it is obvious some literature discrepancies of basic physical-chemical properties. In this context, the aim of this work is to closely study the volumetric properties of ionic liquids and the molecular interactions between ionic liquids and molecular solvents. Volumetric characteristics of electrolyte solutions are of fundamental importance for the understanding of numerous phenomena occurring in the solutions. These studies can be used to examine the ion-ion, ion-solvent and solvent-solvent interactions. The ion solvation process and the equilibrium involved in different concentration regions in water and many non-aqueous media have been of a great importance due to their commercial applications in many technological areas. The mixtures of IL with lower amides provide potential industrial applications and thus utilization of both IL and amides.
