Comparative Evaluation of Six Electrolyte Local Composition Activity Coefficient Models Applied to Binary Aqueous Solutions of Ionic Liquids

The capability of six popular local composition models including electrolyte NRTL, modified electrolyte NRTL, electrolyte NRTL–NRF, electrolyte Wilson, modified electrolyte Wilson, and electrolyte NRF–Wilson models to predict the activity coefficients of ionic liquids in aqueous solutions was examined by correlating the experimental data of 16 ionic liquids available in the literature. The adjustable parameters and standard deviations of the fit were estimated for all of these models. Results indicate that the modified electrolyte Wilson model represents the activity coefficients with higher precision.     

Conductivity of Dilute Aqueous Electrolyte Solutions at High Temperatures and Pressures Using a Flow Cell

A flow-through electrical conductance cell was assembled in order to measuremolar conductances of dilute aqueous electrolytes with a high degree of accuracyat high temperatures and pressures. The design of the cell is based on the conceptdeveloped at the University of Delaware and built in 1995, with modificationsthat will allow the cell to operate at much higher temperatures (to 600°C) andpressures (to 300 MPa). At present, the cell has been tested successfully bymeasuring aqueous (10^–4-10^–3 mol-kg^–1) solutions of LiCl, NaCl, and KCl attemperatures 25–410°C and pressures 9.8–33 MPa. The results are in goodagreement with reported values, including those measured with the Delawareflow-through cell. These new results are also complementary to our previousresults, which were measured with a static high-pressure cell. Measurements attemperatures near the critical point of water (374°C, 22.1 MPa) require the useof lower solution concentrations that were unachievable in the past with thestatic cell.     

Effect of Sodium Dodecylbenzenesulfonate on the Association Behavior of Promethazine Hydrochloride in Aqueous/Electrolyte Solutions at Different Temperatures

The interaction between the amphiphilic phenothiazine drug promethazine hydrochloride (PMT) and an anionic surfactant sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate has been investigated using the conductometric technique in the absence and presence of an inorganic salt (50 mmol·kg^?1 NaCl) at five different compositions and temperatures. PMT is employed for the cure of allergic symptoms. Different physicochemical parameters such as critical micellar concentration (cmc), thermodynamic, and micellar composition are evaluated and discussed in detail using regular solution theory (RST). The addition of salt decreased the surface charge of micelles, lowering the cmc values of the amphiphile. The interaction parameter (β) is negative at all temperatures and compositions indicating attractive interactions. Due to the presence of NaCl in mixed systems the attractive interaction (β) was further increased (β values more negative). The negative values of Gibbs energy (\( \Delta G^{0}_{\text{m}} \)) of mixing revealed the stability of the solution. Owing to the presence of NaCl, the \( \Delta G^{0}_{\text{m}} \) values are found to be more negative suggesting that the driving force for interaction was significantly increased and micellization more thermodynamically favorable.     

Volumetric and Viscometric Analyses for l-Glutamic Acid in NaCl Aqueous Solutions at Different Temperatures

The physico-chemical property data for l-glutamic acid in aqueous NaCl solutions were obtained at 0, 0.5, 1.0 and 2.0 mol·kg^?1 NaCl and amino acid molalities from 0 to 0.0669 mol·kg^?1 between 293.15 and 323.15 K. The influence of NaCl addition on the volumetric and viscometric properties of the amino acid has been studied. From the experimental densities, the apparent molar volumes and transfer volumes of l-glutamic acid in aqueous electrolyte solutions have been calculated. The viscosity data in the studied domain of amino acid molalities have led to the evaluation of the Falkenhagen and Jones–Dole viscosity coefficients of l-glutamic acid in NaCl aqueous solutions. The results have been discussed in terms of interactions occurring in the systems.     

Density and Sound Velocity Studies of Aqueous Solutions of Tetradecyltrimethylammonium Nitrate at Different Temperatures

The density and ultrasound velocity of aqueous solutions of tetradecyltrimethylammonium nitrate were measured in the temperature range of 15 to 35°C in 5°C intervals. The concentration range covered the premicellar and micellar regimes. By assuming a pseudophase separation model for the micellar system, we applied the densitometric data to estimate the apparent molar volumes and the apparent thermal expansibility coefficients of the surfactant in monomeric and micellar forms. Ultrasound velocity and density data enabled us to estimate the isentropic compressibility of the surfactant in both forms. The results are compared with relevant literature data for alkyltrimethylammonium bromides.     

Investigations of the Properties of l-Histidine in Aqueous NaCl Solutions at Different Temperatures

Density and viscosity experimental data for l-histidine in NaCl aqueous solutions were obtained at different salt and different amino acid concentrations in the range of temperatures between 293.15 and 323.15 K. The results have been correlated and analyzed in order to evaluate the influence of electrolyte concentration and temperature on the volumetric and viscometric properties of the solutions. The apparent molar volumes and the transfer volumes of l-histidine in aqueous NaCl solutions at different salt and amino acid molalities over entire temperature range were calculated from experimental density data. The viscosity experimental data have been analyzed with Jones–Dole equation and the Falkenhagen (A) and the Jones–Dole coefficient (B) have been calculated in order to evaluate the interactions occurring in the systems. The B viscosity coefficients were found to be positive for all conditions, showing a kosmotropic effect of solutes, indicating an alignment of zwitterions with ions/water dipoles. A comparison of standard partial molar volumes for some amino acids in water and NaCl aqueous solutions shows that they increase with molecular mass and complexity of the lateral side chain of the amino acid.     

Interactions of Phenylalanine,Tyrosine and Histidine in Aqueous Caffeine Solutions at Different Temperatures

Densities, ρ, viscosities, η, and refractive indices, n_D of aqueous caffeine (0.5 M) and of solutions of amino acids, l‐phenylalanine (Phe), l‐tyrosine (Tyr) and l‐histidine (His), (0.01–0.05 M) in aqueous‐caffeine have been measured at 298.15, 303.15, 308.15 and 313.15 K. From these experimental data, apparent molar volume, ?_v, limiting partial molar volume, ?^º_ν and the slope, S_v, transfer volume, ?^º_ν,tr, Falkenhagen coefficient, A, Jones‐Dole coefficients, B, free energies of activation per mole of solvent, Δμ^o#₁ and per mole of solute, Δμ^o#₂, enthalpy, ΔH^* and entropy, ΔS^* of activation of viscous flow, and molar refraction, R_m were calculated. The results are interpreted from the point of view of solute‐solvent and solute‐solute interactions in these systems. It has been observed that there exist strong solute‐solvent and weak solute‐solute interactions in these systems. Further, the solute‐solvent interactions decrease, whereas solute‐solute interactions increase with rise in temperature. It is observed that these amino acids act as structure‐makers in aqueous‐caffeine solvent. The thermodynamics of viscous flow have also been discussed.

Viscometric Analysis of Miscibility and Interactions for Binary,Ternary Polycarbonate/Brominated Polystyrene + Chloroform Systems at Different Temperatures

Viscosities of ternary systems consist of polycarbonate (PC)/brominated polystyrene (PBrS) in chloroform and their corresponding binary systems were measured at different temperatures (20, 25, and 30°C). All the measurements were carried out at the concentration ranges of 0.1–0.6 g·dL^?1. The mass ratio of PC to PBrS was selected as 75:25, 50:50, and 25:75 in the ternary solutions. Two empirical expressions of Huggins and Kraemer equations with three-parameters were used for reproducing of the experimental viscosity data. The fitting parameters were obtained for the corresponding temperatures. The miscibility criteria on the basis of the sign of Δ[η]_m based on the difference between experimental and ideal values of [η]_m, was calculated by applying the Garcia et al., theoretical equation. The effect of temperature on the viscosity data was also studied. The results from this method were correlated with the miscibility data obtained for the same system by differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) findings.     

Chromatomembrane Headspace Analysis of Aqueous Solutions at Elevated Temperatures

Both theoretically and experimentally, the effect of temperature has been studied and assessed on analytical characteristics of continuous chromatomembrane gas extraction of volatile organic compounds from aqueous solutions with the aim of their subsequent gas chromatographic determination. It has been found that a rise of temperature up to 80 °C enables reduction of the detection limits of alcohols, ketones, and esters by a factor of 10 to 20. If a water vapor condenser is used in the extractant gas line, then the repeatability of results does not depend on temperature. The conditions have been optimized for the continuous headspace chromatomembrane analysis in combination with gas adsorption (purge and trap) concentration of analytes.

     

Structure at the Free Surface of Water and Aqueous Electrolyte Solutions

Abstract

During the past 20 years or so one of the regions of conspicuous growth in the field of physical chemistry has been the study of the structure and behaviour of water and aqueous solutions. There are practical reasons, for example technical and biological, for this interest, but it is also true that the complexity of water as a liquid provides its own motive to the rcsearch worker. It is unlikely that we would spend so much time in the study of water if it were as simple a liquid as Argon. However, strange though the behaviour of liquid water is, it is probably not as strange as it has sometimes been thought to be. The thermal “anomalies” of water and the abnormal “Poly-water” Seem rather likely to fade out of the scientific scene, as have other stimulating but nonviable scientific myths.     

Sorption of Cadmium from Aqueous Solutions at Different Temperatures by Mexican HEU-type Zeolite Rich Tuff

Many factors may affect the heavy metals sorption on natural zeolites among them the temperature, for this reason in this paper the cadmium retention behavior on Mexican zeolitic rich tuff as a function of temperature is considered. The kinetic and the isotherms were determined at 303, 318, and 333 K, the remaining cadmium in the solution samples was analyzed by atomic absorption spectrometry. The pseudo-second order rate constant, k, as well as the apparent diffusion coefficients were calculated from the cadmium uptake by the zeolitic rock as a function of the contact time and temperature, the highest amounts were found for the experiments done at 333 K. The maximum cadmium adsorption capacity by the zeolitic material was 12.2 mg Cd²⁺/g at 318 K corresponding to 20% of the effective ion exchange capacity of the Chihuahua zeolitic rock. In order to explain the cadmium sorption behavior different kinetics and isotherm models were considered.

Electrochemical Performance and Capacity Fading Mechanism of LiFePO4 at Different pH Aqueous Electrolyte Solutions

The electrochemical stability of LiFePO₄ in a Li⁺-containing aqueous electrolyte solution is critically dependent on the pH value of the aqueous solution. It shows a considerable decay in capacity of LiFePO₄ upon cycling when the pH value is increased to 11. The mechanism responsible for the capacity fading is extensively investigated by means of cyclic voltammogram, ac impedance, charge/discharge, ex situ X-ray diffraction, and chemical analysis. LiFePO₄ is relatively electrochemically stable in LiNO₃ aqueous solution with pH=7. But the electrochemical performance of LiFePO₄ in aqueous electrolyte is inferior to that in organic electrolyte. It is attributed to the loss of Li and the Fe, P dissolution during prolonged charge-discharge in aqueous medium. A precipitate is formed on the surface of LiFePO₄ electrodes. It results in the change of crystalline structure, a large electrode polarization, and capacity fading.
