Abstract:
Precise conductances for tetrabutylammonium tetrabutylboride (Bu4NBBu4) at 25°C have been measured in a number of nonaqueous solvents, and the data have been analyzed by the 1957 Fuoss-Onsager conductance equation. Limiting ion conductances for the Bu4N+ ion at infinite dilution 0(Bu4N+) in various solvents have been evaluated by dividing 0 values of the salt into two equal parts. The 0(Bu4N+) values so obtained are in fairly good agreement (within±0.1–3.5%) with the corresponding values determined from direct transference number measurements in these solvents.
