Thermodynamic representation of the NaCl + Na2SO4 + H2O system with electrolyte NRTL model

A comprehensive thermodynamic model based on the electrolyte NRTL (eNRTL) activity coefficient equation is developed for the NaCl + H₂O binary, the Na₂SO₄ + H₂O binary and the NaCl + Na₂SO₄ + H₂O ternary. The NRTL binary parameters for pairs H₂O-(Na⁺, Cl⁻) and H₂O-(Na⁺, SO₄²⁻), and the aqueous phase infinite dilution heat capacity parameters for ions Cl⁻ and SO₄²⁻ are regressed from fitting experimental data on mean ionic activity coefficient, heat capacity, liquid enthalpy and dissolution enthalpy for the NaCl + H₂O binary and the Na₂SO₄ + H₂O binary with electrolyte concentrations up to saturation and temperature up to 473.15 K. The Gibbs energy of formation, enthalpy of formation and heat capacity parameters for solids NaCl_(s), NaCl·2H₂O_(s), Na₂SO_4(s) and Na₂SO₄·10H₂O_(s) are obtained by fitting experimental data on solubilities of NaCl and Na₂SO₄ in water. The NRTL binary parameters for the (Na⁺, Cl⁻)-(Na⁺, SO₄²⁻) pair are regressed from fitting experimental data on dissolution enthalpies and solubilities for the NaCl + Na₂SO₄ + H₂O ternary.     

H2O + Fe(NO3)3 + Ni(NO3)2 ternary system isotherms at 0 °C and 30 °C

H₂O + Ni(NO₃)₂ binary system were investigated in the temperature range from −25 °C to 55 °C. The solid-liquid equilibria of the ternary system H₂O + Fe(NO₃)₃ + Ni(NO₃)₂ were studied using a synthetic method based on conductivity measurements. Tow isotherms were established at 0 °C and 30 °C, and the appearing stable solid phases are iron nitrate nonahydrate (Fe(NO₃)₃·9H₂O), iron nitrate hexahydrate (Fe(NO₃)₃·6H₂O), nickel nitrate hexahydrate (Ni(NO₃)₂·6H₂O) and nickel nitrate tetrahydrate (Ni(NO₃)₂·4H₂O).     

Excess Gibbs energies and volumes of the ternary system chloroform + tetrahydrofuran + cyclohexane at 298.15 K

Vapour–liquid equilibria and densities for the ternary system chloroform + tetrahydrofuran + cyclohexane and for the binary mixtures containing chloroform have been determined at 298.15 K. Vapour–liquid equilibrium data have been collected by head-space gas-chromatographic analysis of the vapour phase directly withdrawn from an equilibration apparatus. Density measurements have been carried out by means of a vibrating tube densimeter. Molar excess Gibbs energies G^E and volumes V^E, as well as activity coefficients and apparent molar volumes of the components, have been obtained from the measured quantities and discussed. The binary chloroform + tetrahydrofuran displays negative deviations from ideality, while chloroform + cyclohexane positive deviations, for both volume and Gibbs energy. The G^E's and V^E's for the ternary system are positive in the region rich in cyclohexane while negative in the region rich in chloroform + tetrahydrofuran. This indicates that hydrogen bonding between chloroform and tetrahydrofuran molecules produces negative values of G^E and V^E and strongly influences the behaviour of the ternary system.     

High-pressure phase behaviour of binary (CO2 + nicotine) and ternary (CO2 + nicotine + solanesol) mixtures

This work paper presents vapour–liquid equilibrium (VLE) data for binary (CO₂ + nicotine) and ternary (CO₂ + nicotine + solanesol) mixtures, at 313.2 K and 6, 8 and 15 MPa. The (CO₂ + nicotine) system exhibits three phases (L₁L₂V) in equilibrium at 8.37 MPa. It is estimated that this system most likely follows the type-III phase behaviour. In the ternary system, the presence of solanesol in the vapour phase was detected only at the pressure of 15 MPa. At this pressure, partition coefficients and separation factors for solanesol/nicotine were calculated for different initial nicotine/solanesol compositions and a strong influence of composition was found. The results were modelled using the Peng–Robinson equation of state (PR EOS) coupled with the Mathias–Klotz–Prausnitz (MKP) mixing rule (PR–MKP model). Good correlations of the binary data, particularly in the case of the (CO₂ + nicotine) mixture, were obtained. However, the model could not correlate the ternary data.     

Activity coefficients of KCl in PEG 4000 + water mixtures at 288.15, 298.15 and 308.15 K

The electromotive force of the cell containing two ion-selective electrodes (ISE), K-ISE|KCl(m), PEG 4000(Y), H₂O(100 − Y)|Cl-ISE has been measured at temperatures of 288.15, 298.15, and 308.15 K as a function of the weight percentage Y of PEG 4000 in a mixed solvent. Y was varied between 0 and 25 wt.% in five-unit steps and the molality of the electrolyte (m) was between ca. 0.05 mol kg⁻¹ and almost saturation. The values of the standard electromotive force were calculated using routine methods of extrapolation together with extended Debye-Hückel and Pitzer equations. The results obtained produced good internal consistency for all the temperatures studied. Once the standard electromotive force was determined, mean ionic activity coefficients for KCl, Gibbs energy of transfer from the water to PEG 4000 + water mixtures, interaction parameters (g_EN, h_EN, s_EN, c_p,EN), salting constants, and the KCl primary hydration number were estimated and comparatively discussed in terms of a model of structural and electrostatic interactions with those of the LiCl and NaCl previously obtained in similar mixtures.     

Excess molar enthalpies of the ternary mixtures (1-hexene + tetrahydrofuran or 2-methyltetrahydrofuran + methyl tert-butyl ether) at the temperature 298.15 K

Microcalorimetric measurements of excess enthalpies at the temperature T = 298.15 K are reported for the binary mixture, (x₁C₆H₁₂ + x₂C₄H₈O) and the two ternary mixtures {x₁C₆H₁₂ + x₂(C₄H₈O or C₅H₁₀O) + x₃(C₅H₁₂O)}. Smooth representations of the results are presented and used to construct constant excess molar enthalpy contours on Roozeboom diagrams. It is shown that good estimates of the ternary enthalpies can be obtained from the Liebermann and Fried model, using only the physical properties of the components and their binary mixtures.     

Phase diagram and thermodynamic modeling of PEO + organic salts + H2O and PPO + organic salts + H2O aqueous two-phase systems

The phase diagrams of PEO1500 + sodium tartrate + water, PPO400 + sodium tartrate + water, PEO1500 + sodium succinate + water, PPO400 + sodium succinate + water, PEO1500 + sodium citrate + water, PPO400 + sodium citrate + water and PPO400 + sodium acetate + water aqueous two-phase systems were determined at (283.15, 298.15, and 313.15) K. Both equilibrium phases composition were analyzed by conductimetry and refractive index. In this paper, the influences of polymer hydrophobicity, salt nature and temperature on the phase diagram were analyzed. The phase separation processes was endothermic and the hydrophobic increase make easier the phase splitting, while the electrolyte capacity to induce phase separation follow the order: citrate > tartrate > succinate. The consistency of the tie-line data was ascertained by applying the Othmer-Tobias correlation. The experimental data were correlated with the NRTL model for the activity coefficient, with estimation of new interaction energy parameters. The results, analyzed in terms of root mean square deviations between experimental and calculated compositions, were considered satisfactory.     

Solid-liquid phase equilibria in the system water + methanol + MgSO4·7H2O + MnSO4·4H2O

The solubilities and complex phase equilibria for the system of MnSO₄·4H₂O + MgSO₄·7H₂O + H₂O + CH₃OH were determined at the temperatures 291.2 and 301.2 K over the methanol mole fraction range of 0.00–0.12.The solubility data were used for modelling with the modified extended electrolyte non-random two-liquid equation. The salting-out effect of MgSO₄ and methanol on the solubilities of two manganese salts (MnSO₄·H₂O and MnSO₄·4H₂O) are represented in the several thermodynamic figures as a function of temperature. The solventing-out effect was stronger than the salting-out effect, which results in a decrease of the solubilities of manganese, salts even though the solubility of MnSO₄·H₂O decreased and solubility of MgSO₄·4H₂O increased as temperature increased.

The H2O-D2O solvent isotope effects on the molar volumes of alkali-chloride solutions at T = (288.15, 298.15, and 308.15) K

Densities of LiCl, NaCl, KCl, and CsCl in normal and heavy water solutions have been measured using a vibrating-tube densitometer with (1-2) · 10⁻⁶ precision at T = (288.15, 298.15, and 308.15) K over a wide concentration range from (0.1 to 5) molal, m. Solvent isotope effects (IE) on apparent molar volumes, as well as both on solute- and solvent-partial molar volumes were evaluated to establish their trend with cationic size in a systematic way. With the exception of the LiCl, both the “normal” standard IEs, , and the “inverse” excess IEs of the solutes, , increase linearly with the electrostriction effect of the cations (1/r_ion), while with increasing temperature and/or concentration, the excess effects become almost the same.In contrast to the solute excess IEs, which show linear m^1/2-dependence over the whole concentration range, except for LiCl, the “inverse” excess IEs of the solvent, , hardly change over the lower concentration range (, m ? 1). However, with further increase of the concentration, these IEs significantly decrease. Individual ionic standard and excess volume contributions are derived and the results are discussed in terms of structural concepts of ionic hydration.     

Liquid phase equilibria of (water + phosphoric acid + 1-butanol or butyl acetate) ternary systems at T = 308.2 K

(Liquid + liquid) equilibria and tie lines for the ternary systems of (water + phosphoric acid + 1-butanol) and (water + phosphoric acid + butyl acetate) were measured at T = 308.2 K. The experimental ternary (liquid + liquid) equilibrium data were correlated with the UNIQUAC model. The reliability of the experimental tie lines was confirmed using Othmer-Tobias correlation. The average root-mean-square deviation (RMSD) values of (water + phosphoric acid + 1-butanol) and (water + phosphoric acid + butyl acetate) systems were 2.17% and 2.16%, respectively. Distribution coefficients and separation factors were measured to evaluate the extracting capability of the solvents. The results show that butyl acetate may be considered as a reliable organic solvent for the extraction of phosphoric acid from aqueous solutions.     

Enthalpies of dilution of aqueous Li2B4O7 solutions at 298.15 K and application of ion-interaction model

The enthalpies of dilution have been measured for aqueous Li₂B₄O₇ solutions from 0.0212 to 2.1530 mol kg⁻¹ at 298.15 K. The relative apparent molar enthalpies, L_?, and relative partial molar enthalpies of the solvent and solute, and were calculated. The thermodynamic properties of the complex aqueous solutions were represented with a modified Pitzer ion-interaction model.     

The DFT and ab initio investigations on the mechanism of CF3O2 + H reaction

The mechanisms for the reaction of CF₃O₂ with atomic hydrogen were studied with ab initio and DFT methods. The results reveal that the reaction could take place on the singlet and triplet potential energy surfaces (PES). For the singlet PES, addition/elimination and substitution mechanisms are determined, and the former one is dominant. The most favorable channel involves the association of CF₃O₂ with H atom to form CF₃O₂H (IM1) via a barrierless process, and then the O–O bond dissociates to give out CF₃O + OH. The secondary product might be CF₃OH + O, formed from the O–O bond cleavage in the initial adduct CF₃O(H)O (IM2). Other products such as CF₃ + O₂H, HF + CF₂O₂ and O₂ + CHF₃ are of no importances because of higher barriers. On the triplet PES, only substitution mechanism is located. With higher barriers involving, the channels on the triplet PES could be negligible compared with the channels on the singlet PES.     

Physical properties and their corresponding changes of mixing for the ternary mixture acetone + n-hexane + water at 298.15 K

Experimental density and the refractive index of the ternary mixture acetone + n-hexane + water, and their binary systems were experimentally measured and correlated at 298.15 K and atmospheric pressure. A maximum in refractive indices has been observed for the acetone + water system while the excess molar volume and the molar refraction change are all negative. For the mixture acetone + n-hexane, the excess molar volume is always positive and the molar refraction change of mixing showed a S-shaped dependence on acetone composition. The excess molar volumes and molar refraction changes of mixing were correlated using the Redlich-Kister expression and Cibulka equation. The coefficients and standard deviation between the experimental and fitted values were estimated. Good agreement between both results was obtained.     

Vibrational spectra of Cs2CaCl4·2H2O

The Fourier transform infrared spectra of Cs₂CaCl₄·2H₂O as well as those of a series of its partially deuterated analogues were recorded at room and at liquid-nitrogen temperature (RT and LNT, respectively). The RT Raman spectra of the protiated form and of its almost completely deuterated analogue were also studied. The combined results from the analysis of the spectra were used to assign the observed bands. The mechanical anharmonicity of the OH(D) stretching and bending motions were further analyzed by computing the corresponding anharmonicity constants by several algorithms. The obtained trends in the series of structurally similar compounds were discussed.
