Thermodynamic properties of (NaCl + KCl + LiCl + H2O) at T = 298.15 K: Water activities,osmotic and activity coefficients

The water activities of aqueous electrolyte mixture (NaCl + KCl + LiCl + H₂O) were experimentally determined at T = 298.15 K by the hygrometric method at total ionic-strength from 0.4 mol · kg⁻¹ to 6 mol · kg⁻¹ for different ionic-strength fractions y of NaCl with y = 1/3, 1/2, and 2/3. The data allow the deduction of new osmotic coefficients. The results obtained were correlated by Pitzer’s model and Dinane’s mixing rules ECA I and ECA II for calculations of the water activity in mixed aqueous electrolytes. A new Dinane–Pitzer model is proposed for the calculation of osmotic coefficients in quaternary aqueous mixtures using the newly ternary and quaternary ionic mixing parameters of this studied system. The solute activity coefficients of component in the mixture are also determined for different ionic-strength fractions y of NaCl.     

Hygrometric determination of the water activities and the osmotic and activity coefficients of (ammonium chloride + sodium chloride + water) atT = 298.15 K

The mixed aqueous electrolyte system of ammonium and sodium chlorides has been studied by the hygrometric method at the temperature 298.15 K. The relative humidities of this system were measured at total molalities from 0.3mol · kg ^− 1 to 6 mol · kg ^− 1for different ionic-strength fractions of NH ₄Cl with y =  (0.33, 0.50, and 0.67). The data obtained allow the deduction of new water activities and osmotic coefficients. The experimental results are compared with the predictions of the extended composed additivity model proposed in our previous work, the Robinson–Stokes, Reilly–Wood–Robinson, and Lietzke–Stoughton models. From these measurements, the new Pitzer mixing ionic parameters were determined and used to predict the solute activity coefficients in the mixture.     

Isopiestic study of (calcium chloride + water) and (calcium chloride + magnesium chloride + water) atT = 313.15 K

The osmotic coefficients of aqueous calcium chloride solutions were experimentally determined atT =  313.15 K by the isopiestic method. Magnesium chloride served as the isopiestic standard for the calculation of osmotic coefficients. The molality range covered in this study correspond to about 0.1mol · kg ^− 1to 3.0mol · kg ^− 1. In addition, the osmotic coefficients of aqueous mixtures of calcium chloride and magnesium chloride were determined over the range of ionic strength levels of about 0.1mol · kg ^− 1to 9mol · kg ^− 1and at various mole fractions. The results obtained were correlated by the Pitzer equation.     

Vapor pressures,osmotic and activity coefficients for (LiBr + acetonitrile) between the temperatures (298.15 and 343.15) K

Precise vapor pressure data for pure acetonitrile and (LiBr + acetonitrile) are given for temperatures ranging from T=(298.15 to 343.15) K. The molality range is from m=(0.0579 to 0.8298) mol · kg⁻¹. The osmotic coefficients are calculated by taking into account the second virial coefficient of acetonitrile. The parameters of the extended Pitzer ion interaction model of Archer and the mole fraction-based thermodynamic model of Clegg–Pitzer are evaluated. These models accurately reproduce the available osmotic coefficients. The parameters of the extended Pitzer ion interaction model of Archer are used to calculate the mean molal activity coefficients.

This work reports the results of a thermodynamic investigation of the ternary mixed-electrolyte system (CsCl + CaCl₂ + H₂O). The activity coefficients of this mixed aqueous electrolyte system have been studied with the electromotive force measurement (EMF) of the cell: Cs ion-selective electrode (ISE)|CsCl(m_A), CaCl₂(m_B), H₂O|Ag/AgCl at T = 298.15 K and over total ionic strengths from (0.01 to 1.50) mol · kg^?1 for different ionic strength fractions y_B of CaCl₂ with y_B = (0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, and 0.8). The cesium ion-selective electrode (Cs-ISE) and the Ag/AgCl electrode used in this work were made in our laboratory and had a good Nernst response. The experimental results obey the Harned rule, and the Pitzer model can be used to describe this ternary system satisfactorily. The osmotic coefficients, excess Gibbs free energies and activities of water of the mixtures were also calculated.     

Thermodynamic properties of the system MgSO4–MnSO4–H2O at 298.15 K

The mixed aqueous electrolyte system magnesium and manganese sulfate has been studied with the hygrometric method at the temperature 298.15 K. The relative humidity of this system is measured at total molalities from 0.2 mol kg⁻¹ to about saturation of one of the solutes for different ionic-strength fractions y of MgSO₄ with y=0.2, 0.5 and 0.8. The obtained data allow the deduction of new thermodynamic parameters. The experimental results are compared with the predictions of ZSR rule. From these measurements, the new Pitzer mixing ionic parameters are determined and used to predict the solute activity coefficients in the mixture. The obtained results are used to calculate the excess Gibbs energy at total molalities for different ionic-strength fractions y of MgSO₄.

Electrochemical measurements were made on (H₂O + NaBr + K₃PO₄ + glycine) mixtures at T = 298.15 K by using ion selective electrodes. The mean ionic activity coefficients of NaBr at molality 0.1 were determined at five K₃PO₄ molalities (0.01, 0.03, 0.05, 0.07, and 0.1) mol · kg⁻¹. The activity coefficients of glycine were evaluated from mean ionic activity coefficients of NaBr. The modified Pitzer equation was used to model the experimental data.     

Activity coefficients of CaCl2 in (maltose + water) and (lactose + water) mixtures at 298.15 K

Activity coefficients of CaCl₂ in disaccharide {(maltose, lactose) + water} mixtures at 298.15 K were determined by cell potentials. The molalities of CaCl₂ ranged from about 0.01 mol · kg^?1 to 0.20 mol · kg^?1, the mass fractions of maltose from 0.05 to 0.25, and those of lactose from 0.025 to 0.125. The cell potentials were analyzed by using the Debye–Hückel extended equation and the Pitzer equation. The activity coefficients obtained from the two theoretical models are in good agreement with each other. Gibbs free energy interaction parameters (g_ES) and salting constants (k_S) were also obtained. These were discussed in terms of the stereo-chemistry of saccharide molecules and the structural interaction model.     

Interactions of some amino acids and glycine peptides with aqueous sodium dodecyl sulfate and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide at T=298.15 K: a volumetric approach

The apparent molar volumes V_φ of glycine, alanine, valine, leucine, and lysine have been determined in aqueous solutions of 0.05, 0.5, 1.0 mol · kg⁻¹ sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and 1.0 mol · kg⁻¹ cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) by density measurements at T=298.15 K. The apparent molar volumes have also been determined for diglycine and triglycine in 1 mol · kg⁻¹ SDS and CTAB solutions. These data have been used to calculate the infinite dilution apparent molar volumes V₂⁰ for the amino acids and peptides in aqueous SDS and CTAB and the standard partial molar volumes of transfer (Δ_trV_2,m⁰) of the amino acids and peptides to these aqueous surfactant solutions. The linear correlation of V₂⁰ for a homologous series of amino acids has been utilized to calculate the contribution of the charged end groups (NH₃⁺, COO⁻), CH₂ group and other alkyl chains of the amino acids to V₂⁰. The results on the partial molar volumes of transfer from water to aqueous SDS and CTAB have been interpreted in terms of ion–ion, ion–polar and hydrophobic–hydrophobic group interactions. The volume of transfer data suggests that ion–ion or ion–hydrophilic group interactions of the amino acids and peptides are stronger with SDS compared to those with CTAB. Comparison of the hydration numbers of amino acids calculated in the present studies with those in other solvents from literature shows that these numbers are almost the same at 1 mol · kg⁻¹ level of the cosolvent/cosolute. Increasing molality of the cosolvent/cosolute beyond 1 mol · kg⁻¹ lowers the hydration number of the amino acids due to increased interactions with the solvent and reduced electrostriction.     

Mean activity coefficient measurement and thermodynamic modelling of the ternary mixed electrolyte (MgCl2 + glucose + water) system at T = 298.15 K

In this work, the mean activity coefficients of MgCl₂ in pure water and (glucose + water) mixture solvent were determined using a galvanic cell without liquid junction potential of type: (Mg²⁺ + ISE)|MgCl₂ (m), glucose (wt.%), H₂O (100 wt.%)|AgCl|Ag. The measurements were performed at T = 298.15 K. Total ionic strengths were from (0.0010 to 6.0000) mol · kg⁻¹. The various (glucose + water) mixed solvents contained (0, 10, 20, 30 and 40)% mass fractions percentage of glucose respectively. The mean activity coefficients measured were correlated with Pitzer ion interaction model and the Pitzer adjustable parameters were determined. Then these parameters were used to calculate the thermodynamics properties for under investigated system. The results showed that Pitzer ion interaction model can satisfactory describe the investigated system. The modified three-characteristic-parameter correlation (TCPC) model was applied to correlate the experimental activity coefficient data for under investigation electrolyte system, too.     

Activity coefficients of CaCl2 in (serine or proline + water) mixtures at T = 298.15 K

Activity coefficients for the (CaCl₂ + amino acid + water) system were determined at a temperature of 298.15 K using ion-selective electrodes. The range of molalities of CaCl₂ is (0.01 to 0.20) mol · kg^?1, and that of amino acids is (0.10 to 0.40) mol · kg^?1. The activity coefficients obtained from the Debye–Hückel extended equation and the Pitzer equation are in good agreement with each other. Results show that the interactions between CaCl₂ and amino acid are controlled mainly by the electrostatic interactions (attraction). Gibbs free energy interaction parameters (g_EA) and salting constants (k_S) are positive, indicating that these amino acids are salted out by CaCl₂. These results are discussed based on group additivity model.

Vapour pressures of water over saturated solutions of cesium chloride, cesium bromide, cesium nitrate, cesium sulfate, cesium formate, and cesium oxalate were determined as a function of temperature. These vapour pressures were used to evaluate the water activities, osmotic coefficients and molar enthalpies of vapourization. Molar enthalpies of solution of cesium chloride, Δ_solH_m(T = 295.73 K; m = 0.0622 mol · kg⁻¹) = (17.83 ± 0.50) kJ · mol⁻¹; cesium bromide, Δ_solH_m(T = 293.99 K; m = 0.0238 mol · kg⁻¹) = (26.91 ± 0.59) kJ · mol⁻¹; cesium nitrate, Δ_solH_m(T = 294.68 K; m = 0.0258 mol · kg⁻¹) = (37.1 ± 2.3) kJ · mol⁻¹; cesium sulfate, Δ_solH_m(T = 296.43 K; m = 0.0284 mol · kg⁻¹) = (16.94 ± 0.43) kJ · mol⁻¹; cesium formate, Δ_solH_m(T = 295.64 K; m = 0.0283 mol · kg⁻¹) = (11.10 ± 0.26) kJ · mol⁻¹ and Δ_solH_m(T = 292.64 K; m = 0.0577 mol · kg⁻¹) = (11.56 ± 0.56) kJ · mol⁻¹; and cesium oxalate, Δ_solH_m(T = 291.34 K; m = 0.0143 mol · kg⁻¹) = (22.07 ± 0.16) kJ · mol⁻¹ were determined calorimetrically. The purity of the chemicals was generally greater than 0.99 mass fraction, except for HCOOCs and (COOCs)₂ where purities were approximately 0.95 and 0.97 mass fraction, respectively. The uncertainties are one standard deviations.     

Buffer standards for the physiological pH of the zwitterionic compound of 3-(N-morpholino)propanesulfonic acid (MOPS) from T = (278.15 to 328.15) K

This paper reports the pH values of five NaCl-free buffer solutions and 11 buffer compositions containing NaCl at I = 0.16 mol · kg⁻¹. Conventional pa_H values are reported for 16 buffer solutions with and without NaCl salt. The operational pH values have been calculated for five buffer solutions and are recommended as pH standards at T = (298.15 and 310.15) K after correcting the liquid junction potentials. For buffer solutions with the composition m₁ = 0.04 mol · kg⁻¹, m₂ = 0.08 mol · kg⁻¹, m₃ = 0.08 mol · kg⁻¹ at I = 0.16 mol · kg⁻¹, the pH at 310.15 K is 7.269, which is close to 7.407, the pH of blood serum. It is recommended as a pH standard for biological specimens.     

Effect of temperature on solvation behaviour of diclofenac sodium salt in aqueous glycine and l-proline solutions

Apparent molar volume (V_2,ϕ) and apparent molar isentropic compressibility (K_s,2,ϕ) of diclofenac sodium salt (DSS) drug within the concentration range of (0.001 to 0.008) mol · kg⁻¹ in (0.01, 0.03 and 0.05) mol · kg⁻¹ aqueous glycine and l-proline solutions are computed from the experimental density (ρ) and speed of sound (u) values at T = (293.15 to 313.15) K and atmospheric pressure. Derived parameters such as partial molar properties, transfer partial molar properties, hydration numbers and Hepler’s constant are computed from the data of V_2,ϕ and K_s,2,ϕ. These parameters have been used to understand the effect of temperature on interactions between DSS drug and aqueous glycine/l-proline solution. Furthermore, the structure making and breaking ability of DSS drug in probed solutions are analysed at experimental conditions.     

Temperature and sodium chloride effects on the solubility of anthracene in water

The solubility of anthracene was measured in pure water and in sodium chloride aqueous solution (salt concentration, m/mol · kg^?1 = 0.1006, 0.5056, and 0.6082) at temperatures between (278 and 333) K. Solubility of anthracene in pure water agrees fairly well with values reported in earlier similar studies. Solubility of anthracene in sodium chloride aqueous solutions ranged from (6 · 10^?8 to 143 · 10^?8) mol · kg^?1. Sodium chloride had a salting-out effect on the solubility of anthracene. The salting-out coefficients did not vary significantly with temperature over the range studied. The average salting-out coefficient for anthracene was 0.256 kg · mol^?1.The standard molar Gibbs free energies, Δ_trG°, enthalpies, Δ_trH°, and entropies, Δ_trS°, for the transfer of anthracene from pure water to sodium chloride aqueous solutions were also estimated. Most of the estimated Δ_trG° values were positive [(20 to 1230) J · mol^?1]. The analysis of the thermodynamic parameters shows that the transfer of anthracene from pure water to sodium chloride aqueous solution is thermodynamically unfavorable, and that this unfavorable condition is caused by a decrease in entropy.

The apparent molar enthalpies of solution at T =  298.15 K as derived from these solubilities areΔ_solH_m (l -glutamic acid,m_sat =  0.0565 mol · kg ^− 1)  =  30.2 kJ · mol ^− 1,Δ_solH_m (3-nitrobenzoic acid, m =  0.0188 mol · kg ^− 1)  =  28.1 kJ · mol ^− 1, Δ_solH_m( p - toluic acid, m =  0.00267 mol · kg ^− 1)  =  23.9 kJ · mol ^− 1,Δ_solH_m (calcium- l -lactate tetrahydrate,m =  0.2902 mol · kg ^− 1)  =  25.8 kJ · mol ^− 1,Δ_solH_m (calcium gluconate, m =  0.0806 mol · kg ^− 1)  =  22.1 kJ · mol ^− 1, Δ_solH_m(magnesium-dl -aspartate tetrahydrate, m =  0.1469 mol · kg ^− 1)  =  11.5 kJ · mol ^− 1, andΔ_solH_m (magnesium- l -lactate trihydrate,m =  0.3462 mol · kg ^− 1)  =  3.81 kJ · mol ^− 1.     

Buffer standards for the physiological pH of N-[2-hydroxy-1,1-bis(hydroxymethyl)ethyl]glycine (TRICINE) from T = (278.15 to 328.15) K

The pH values of two buffer solutions without NaCl and seven buffer solutions with added NaCl, having ionic strengths (I = 0.16 mol · kg⁻¹) similar to those of physiological fluids, have been evaluated at 12 temperatures from T = (278.15 to 328.15) K by way of the extended form of the Debye–Hückel equation of the Bates–Guggenheim convention. The residual liquid junction potentials (δE_j) between the buffer solutions of TRICINE and saturated KCl solution of the calomel electrode at T = (298.15 and 310.15) K have been estimated by measurement with a flowing junction cell. For the buffer solutions with the molality of TRICINE(m₁) = 0.06 mol · kg⁻¹, NaTRICINE(m₂) = 0.02 mol · kg⁻¹, and NaCl(m₃) = 0.14 mol · kg⁻¹, the pH values at T = 310.15 K obtained from the extended Debye–Hückel equation and the inclusion of the liquid junction correction are 7.342 and 7.342, respectively. These are in excellent agreement. The zwitterionic buffer TRICINE is recommended as a secondary pH standard in the region for clinical application.     

(Vapour + liquid) equilibria,volumetric and compressibility behaviour of binary and ternary aqueous solutions of 1-hexyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride,methyl potassium malonate,and ethyl potassium malonate

(Vapour + liquid) equilibrium data (water activity, vapour pressure, osmotic coefficient, and activity coefficient) of binary aqueous solutions of 1-hexyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ([C₆mim][Cl]), methyl potassium malonate, and ethyl potassium malonate and ternary {[C₆mim][Cl] + methyl potassium malonate} and {[C₆mim][Cl] + ethyl potassium malonate} aqueous solutions were obtained through the isopiestic method at T = 298.15 K. These results reveal that the ionic liquid behaves as surfactant-like and aggregates in aqueous solutions at molality about 0.4 mol · kg⁻¹. The constant water activity lines of all the ternary systems investigated show small negative deviations from the linear isopiestic relation (Zdanovskii–Stokes–Robinson rule) derived using the semi-ideal hydration model. The density and speed of sound measurements were carried out on solutions of methyl potassium malonate and ethyl potassium malonate in water and of [C₆mim][Cl] in aqueous solutions of 0.25 mol · kg⁻¹ methyl potassium malonate and ethyl potassium malonate at T = (288.15 to 308.15) K at atmospheric pressure. From the experimental density and speed of sound data, the values of the apparent molar volume, apparent molar isentropic compressibility and excess molar volume were evaluated and from which the infinite dilution apparent molar volume and infinite dilution apparent molar isentropic compressibility were calculated at each temperature. Although, there are no clear differences between the values of the apparent molar volume of [C₆mim][Cl] in pure water and in methyl potassium malonate or ethyl potassium malonate aqueous solutions, however, the results show a positive transfer isentropic compressibility of [C₆mim][Cl] from pure water to the methyl potassium malonate or ethyl potassium malonate aqueous solutions. The results have been interpreted in terms of the solute–water and solute–solute interactions.
