Activity and Osmotic Coefficients from the Emf of Liquid Membrane Cells. VIII. K.3[Co(CN)6], Mg3[Co(CN)6]2, and Ca3[Co(CN)6]2

The activity coefficients of K₃[Co(CN)₆], Mg₃[Co(CN)₆]₂, and Ca₃[Co(CN)₆]₂,are examined. The results highlight close similarity with the correspondinghexacyanoferrate (III) salts. On dilution, K₃[Co(CN)₆], like K₃[Fe(CN)₆], approachesthe limiting law from the upper side, while Mg₃[Co(CN)₆]₂ and Ca₃[Co(CN)₆]₂tend to the limiting law from the opposite side, like Mg₃[Fe(CN)₆]₂,Ca₃[Fe(CN)₆]₂, Sr₃[Fe(CN)₆]₂, and Ba₃[Fe(CN)₆]₂. Both kinds of behavior agreewith theory for a model of hard spheres bearing electric charges +1 and –3 or+2 and –3, respectively. The paramater values of the Pitzer equation for activityand osmotic coefficients are reported.     

Activity and Osmotic Coefficients from the Emf of Liquid Membrane Cells. X. Tris(Ethylenediamine) Cobalt(III) Nitrate, Perchlorate, and Chloride

Activity coefficients of [Co(en)₃](NO₃)₃ and [Co(en)₃](ClO₄)₃, to be compared with [Co(en)₃]Cl₃ and the corresponding lanthanum salts previously studied, are determined. [Co(en)₃]Cl₃ data are revised. Ion interaction strengths vary in the same order found for La³⁺, i.e., as if nitrate and perchlorate ions were of smaller and larger size, respectively, than chloride ions; however, the differences are much smaller than in lanthanum salts. Tris(ethylenediamine)cobalt III and lanthanum nitrate, chloride, and perchlorate—like the corresponding hexacyanoferrate(III) and hexacyanocobaltate(III) salts, but contrary to sulfate salts—behave as if [Co(en)₃]³⁺ were smaller in size than La³⁺. In the dilute regions, [Co(en)₃](NO₃)₃ displays negative deviations from the limiting slope, a kind of behavior typical for 2:2, 2:3, 3:2, and 3:3 electrolytes, but unnoticed earlier for 3:1 or 1:3 electrolytes. Pitzer's equation parameters able to provide accurate activity and osmotic coefficients for [Co(en)₃](NO₃)₃, [Co(en)₃](ClO₄)₃, and, revised, [Co(en)₃]Cl₃ are reported.     

Activity Coefficients of Electrolytes from Liquid Membrane Cells. XI. The Nonsulfate 1:2 Salts,Potassium Oxalate,and Sodium 1,5-Naphthalenedisulfonate

Activity coefficients of K₂C₂O₄ and Na₂ds, ds^2– = 1,5-naphthalenedisulfonate anion, which were previously unavailable, are examined at 25.0°C using liquid membrane cells. The results for both salts are approximated satisfactorily by the primitive model in spite of the fact that ds^2–, a planar ion with electric charges distant from one another, does not resemble a charged hard sphere. Data are compared with those of K₂SO₄ and bivalent metal perchlorates. The Pitzer ion-interaction parameters are reported.     

Activity and osmotic coefficients from the EMF of liquid membrane cells. VI-ZnSO4, MgSO4, CaSO4, and SrSO4 in water at 25‡C

The activity coefficients of ZnSO₄, MgSO₄, CaSO₄, and SrSO₄ are measured by means of cells with ion-exchange liquid membranes similar to those described in the previous papers of this series. Negative deviations from the limiting law are observed in the dilute region. These deviations are, for ZnSO₄, appreciably more important than recent literature has indicated, and the corresponding activity coefficients need to be corrected by about 12%. Pitzer’s theory best-fit coefficients have accordingly been recalculated. The osmotic coefficients are also derived. Accessory information on the hydration state for zinc, magnesium, and sulfate ions, is presented.     

Activity coefficients of electrolytes from the E.M.F. of liquid membrane cells. I. The method—Test measurements on KCl

A new electrochemical cell is described, in which two permselective liquid membranes, one anionic the other cationic, are interposed between the subsidiary electrodes and the solution of the electrolyte under examination By means of this kind of cell it is possible to measure activity coefficients of salts of cations and anions for which reversible electrodes are not available, with great accuracy even at high dilutions never accessible before (down to ≊10⁻⁴ mol-dm⁻³). The cell performance has been tested by measuring the activity coefficients of KCl for which accurate data are available in literature.     

Activity coefficients of electrolytes from the emf of liquid membrane cells. III: LaCl3, K3Fe(CN)6, and LaFe(CN)6

The activity coefficients of LaCl₃, K₃Fe(CN)₆, and LaFe(CN)₆ were measured down to about 1×10^–4, 3×10^–5, and 2×10^–5 mol-kg^–1 respectively, by means of cells with ion-exchange liquid membranes. In the diluted region, the trend of lanthanum chloride agrees with the Debye-Huckel theory and corroborates earlier findings in the literature relevant to more concentrated solutions, with minor systematic corrections of the _± values. K₃Fe(CN)₆ attains (rather than tends to attain) the Debye-Huckel limiting slope at1×10^–3 mol-kg^–1, and lanthanum ferricyanide in the diluted region shows negative deviations from the limiting law, similar to the ones predicted for large-sized, highly-charged ions in the diluted region by Bjerrum's, IPBE, and Mayer's theories. The behavior of LaCl₃ in the concentrated solutions proves that lanthanum ion drags along with it into the membrane many molecules of water which were then found to be twelve. Pitzer's theory best-fit coefficients that meet the experimental curves to be reproduced satisfactorily are reported.     

Activity coefficients of electrolytes from the E.M.F. of liquid membrane cells. II - multicharged electrolyte solutions

The activity coefficients of Co(en)₃Cl₃ and K₂SO₄ were measured by means of a cell with ion-exchange liquid membranes following the method described in paper I. The results prove that this method is even more valuable with multicharged salts than with 1-1 electrolytes. The values obtained are precise and reliable down to dilution limits never before accessible, e.g., 4×10^–5 mol-kg^–1 in Co(en)₃Cl₃. High dilution levels are of particular importance when dealing with highly charged electrolytes since the trend at higher concentrations often leads to errors both in extrapolation to infinite dilution and in the absolute activity coefficients. As an application, the activity coefficients of [Co(en)₃]₂(SO₄)₃-suspected to be wrongly evaluated in past literature-were measured, and their values at low concentrations were actually lower than those quoted before.     

Thermodynamics of electrolytes. Binary mixtures formed from aqueous NaCl,Na2SO4, CuCl2, and CuSO4, at 25°C

Osmotic coefficients to high ionic strengths are reported for five of the binary mixtures formed from NaCl, Na₂SO₄, CuCl₂, and CuSO₄; the sixth system studied, NaCl–Na₂SO₄, is one studied by Wu, Rush, and Scatchard. The equations recently developed by Pitzer are used successfully in the interpretation of the experimental results. Revised values are given for the activity and osmotic coefficients for pure CuSO₄ and CuCl₂ solutions.     

Solute activity coefficients in dilute aqueous electrolyte mixtures. III. The ternary system HClO4+UO2(ClO4)2+H2O at 25°C

Isopiestic vapor pressure comparison measurements were conducted with the three-component system HClO₄+UO₂(ClO₄)₂+H₂O in the concentration range between I=0.05 and 1.9m. Analysis of the mixture composition and concentration dependence of the osmotic coefficients with the Scatchard neutral-electrolyte and ion-component methods and with the Pitzer ioncomponent methods gave equally satisfactory results. Prediction of the observed osmotic coefficients by two-component approximations was satisfactory, and the data agreed well with values estimated with a model based on the osmolal fraction. A fair concordance was also found between predicted solute activity coefficients from simple models and values derived from complete treatments which included interaction terms.     

Apparent molar heat capacities and volumes of aqueous electrolytes: CaCl2, Cd(NO3)2, CoCl2, Cu(ClO4)2, Mg(ClO4)2, and NiCl2

We have used a flow calorimeter and a flow densimeter for measurements leading to apparent molar heat capacities and apparent molar volumes of six 21 electrolytes in aqueous solution at 25°C. Results of these measurements have been used to derive apparent molar heat capacities and volumes at infinite dilution for all six electrolytes: CaCl₂, Cd(NO₃)₂, CoCl₂, Cu(ClO₄)₂, Mg(ClO₄)₂, and NiCl₂.     

Apparent molar heat capacities and volumes of aqueous electrolytes at 25°C: Cd(ClO4)2, Ca(ClO4)2, Co(ClO4)2, Mn(ClO4)2, Ni(ClO4)2, and Zn(ClO4)2

We have used a flow calorimeter and a flow densimeter for measurements leading to apparent molar heat capacities and apparent molar volumes of aqueous solutions of Cd(ClO₄)₂, Ca(ClO₄)₂, Co(ClO₄)₂, Mn(ClO₄)₂, Ni(ClO₄)₂, and Zn(ClO₄)₂. The resulting apparent molar quantities have been extrapolated to infinite dilution to obtain the corresponding standardstate apparent and partial molar heat capacities and volumes. These latter values have been used for calculation of conventional ionic heat capacities and volumes.     

Hygrometric Determination of Water Activities, Osmotic and Activity Coefficients, and Excess Gibbs Energy of the System MgSO4–K2SO4–H2O

Ternary aqueous solutions of MgSO₄ and K₂SO₄ have been studied by the hygrometric method at 25°C. The relative humidity of this system is measured at total molalities from 0.35 mol-kg^–1 to about saturation for three ionic-strength fractions (y = 0.25, 0.50, and 0.80 of MgSO₄. The data allow calculation of water activities and osmotic coefficients. From these measurements, the Pitzer ionic mixing parameters are determined and used to predict the solute activity coefficients in the mixture. The results are used to calculate the excess Gibbs energy at total molalities for ionic-strength fraction y.     

Ni[B2(SO4)4] and Co[B2(SO4)4]: Unveiling Systematic Trends in Phyllosilicate Analogue Borosulfates

Borosulfates are compounds analogous to silicates, with heteropolyanionic subunits of vertex-linked (SO₄)- and (BO₄)-tetrahedra. In contrast to the immense structural diversity of silicates, the number of borosulfates is yet very limited and the extent of their properties is still unknown. This is particularly true for representatives with phyllosilicate and tectosilicate analogue anionic substructures. Herein, we present Ni[B₂(SO₄)₄] and Co[B₂(SO₄)₄], two new borosulfates with phyllosilicate analogue topology. While the anionic subunits of both structures are homeotypic, the positions of the charge compensating cations differ significantly: Ni^II is located between the borosulfate layers, while Co^II—in contrast—is embedded within the layer. Detailed analysis of these two structures based on single-crystal X-ray diffraction, magnetochemical investigations, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and quantum chemical calculations, unveiled the reasons for this finding. By in silico comparison with other divalent borosulfates, we uncovered systematic trends for phyllosilicate analogues leading to the prediction of new species.     

Isopiestic Measurement of the Osmotic Coefficients of Aqueous {xH 2 SO 4 + (1− x)Fe 2 (SO 4 ) 3 } Solutions at 298.15 and 323.15 K

This study measures the osmotic coefficients of {xH₂SO₄ + (1−x)Fe₂(SO₄)₃}(aq) solutions at 298.15 and 323.15 K that have ionic strengths as great as 19.3 mol,kg⁻¹, using the isopiestic method. Experiments utilized both aqueous NaCl and H₂SO₄ as reference solutions. Equilibrium values of the osmotic coefficient obtained using the two different reference solutions were in satisfactory internal agreement. The solutions follow generally the Zdanovskii empirical linear relationship and yield values of a _w for the Fe₂(SO₄)₃–H₂O binary system at 298.15 K that are in good agreement with recent work and are consistent with other M₂(SO₄)₃–H₂O binary systems.     

Activity coefficients of electrolytes from the emf of liquid membrane cells. IV: Revised activity coefficients of lanthanum hexacyanoferrate(III)

Lanthanum ferricyanide is so far the only 3–3 electrolyte whose activity coefficients have been studied carefully; however, the results have been acknowledged to be inconsistent below 1×10^–4 mol-kg^–1. New measurements have been made with an improved cell, proving that the wrong trend was due to chemical interference in the original cell. The new cell makes it possible to reach dilution levels of the order of 4×10^–6 mol-kg^–1. The salt behaves radically unlike Debye-Hückel's predictions, but agrees with other more refined treatments of the hard sphere models without needing any further hypotheses, such as e.g., association. The revised values of the activity coefficients are reported.

Activity coefficients from the emf of liquid membrane cells V. alkaline earth hexacyanoferrates (III) in aqueous solutions at 25°C

The relative mean activity coefficients of the M₃[Fe(CN)₆]₂ salts, M=Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba, are measured down to about 5×10^–6 mol-kg^–1 using the liquid membrane cell method. In the dilute region these salts display negative instead of positive deviations from the limiting law, contrary to Debye-Hückel's theory predictions. An indirect method based on auxiliary emf measurements in MCl₂, K₃Fe(CN)₆ and KCl, rather than a theory-assisted direct extrapolation to zero of the relative activity coefficients, is used to identify the actual values of the activity coefficients. The data are compared with Mayer's theory, ion-pair theory and numerical integration of the Poisson-Boltzmann equation. Best-fit coefficients of Pitzer's equation which meet the activity coefficients of the M₃[Fe(CN)₆]₂ salts to be reproduced, are reported.     

Synthesis and neel temperature determination of ferrites from the MO−ZnO−Fe2O3 systems (M=Cu,Co and Ni)

The Curie (Neel) temperature is successfully determined by means of a simple magnetic device attached to the Q Derivatograph (MOM, Hungary), which is widely used in many laboratories. This possibility is demonstrated by a study of ferrite materials with general formula M_xZn_1?xFe₂O₄ (M=Cu, Co and Ni;x=0.0; 0.2; 0.4; 0.5; 0.6; 0.8; 1.0). X-ray phase analysis, Mössbauer spectroscopy and microscopic examinations revealed that the obtained ferrites are monophase samples. The mixed ferrites possess more strongly expressed magnetic properties than those of the individual ferrites; the maximum magnetic interaction in these ferrites is observed at different zinc contents.     

Isopiestic Determination of the Osmotic and Activity Coefficients of Li2SO4(aq) at T=298.15 and 323.15 K, and Representation with an Extended Ion-Interaction (Pitzer) Model

Isopiestic vapor-pressure measurements were made for Li₂SO₄(aq) from 0.1069 to 2.8190 mol?kg^?1 at 298.15 K, and from 0.1148 to 2.7969 mol?kg^?1 at 323.15 K, with NaCl(aq) as the reference standard. Published thermodynamic data for this system were reviewed, recalculated for consistency, and critically assessed. The present results and the more reliable published results were used to evaluate the parameters of an extended version of Pitzer’s ion-interaction model with an ionic-strength dependent third-virial coefficient, as well as those of the standard Pitzer model, for the osmotic and activity coefficients at both temperatures. Published enthalpies of dilution at 298.15 K were also analyzed to yield the parameters of the ion-interaction models for the relative apparent molar enthalpies of dilution. The resulting models at 298.15 K are valid to the saturated solution molality of the thermodynamically stable phase Li₂SO₄?H₂O(cr). Solubilities of Li₂SO₄?H₂O(cr) at 298.15 K were assessed and the selected value of m(sat.)=3.13±0.04 mol?kg^?1 was used to evaluate the thermodynamic solubility product K _s(Li₂SO₄?H₂O, cr, 298.15 K) = (2.62±0.19) and a CODATA-compatible standard molar Gibbs energy of formation Δ_f G _m ^o (Li₂SO₄?H₂O, cr, 298.15 K) = ?(1564.6±0.5) kJ?mol^?1.
