Diffusion coefficients of nickel chloride in aqueous solutions of lactose at T = 298.15 K and T = 310.15 K

Binary mutual diffusion coefficients (interdiffusion coefficients) of nickel chloride in water at T = 298.15 K and T = 310.15 K, and at concentrations between (0.000 and 0.100) mol · dm^?3, using a Taylor dispersion method have been measured. These data are discussed on the basis of the Onsager–Fuoss and Pikal models. The equivalent conductance at infinitesimal concentration of the nickel ion in these solutions at T = 310.15 K has been estimated using these results. Through the same technique, ternary mutual diffusion coefficients (D₁₁, D₂₂, D₁₂, and D₂₁) for aqueous solutions containing NiCl₂ and lactose, at T = 298.15 K and T = 310.15 K, and at different carrier concentrations were also measured. These data permit us to have a better understanding of the structure of these systems and the thermodynamic behaviour of NiCl₂ in different media.     

Effect of potassium chloride on diffusion of theophylline at T = 298.15 K

Ternary mutual diffusion coefficients measured by Taylor dispersion method (D₁₁, D₂₂, D₁₂, and D₂₁) are reported for aqueous solutions of KCl + theophylline (THP) at T = 298.15 K at carrier concentrations from (0.000 to 0.010) mol · dm^?3, for each solute. These diffusion coefficients have been measured having in mind a better understanding of the structure of these systems and the thermodynamic behavior of potassium chloride and theophylline in solution. For example, from these data it will be possible to make conclusions about the influence of this electrolyte in diffusion of THP and to estimate some parameters, such as the diffusion coefficient of the aggregate between KCl and THP.     

Diffusion of levodopa in aqueous solutions of hydrochloric acid at 25 °C

Ternary mutual diffusion coefficients (D₁₁, D₂₂, D₁₂ and D₂₁) measured by the Taylor dispersion method are reported for aqueous solutions of {levodopa (l-dopa) + HCl} solutions at 25 °C and HCl concentrations up to 0.100 mol · dm⁻³. The coupled diffusion of l-dopa (1) and HCl (2) is significant, as indicated by large negative cross-diffusion coefficients. D₂₁, for example, reaches values that are larger than D₁₁, the main coefficient of l-dopa. Combined Fick and Nernst–Planck equations are used to analyze the proton coupled diffusion of l-dopa and HCl in terms of the binding of H⁺ ions to l-dopa and ion migration in the electric field generated by l-dopa and HCl concentration gradients.     

Diffusion of sodium alginate in aqueous solutions at T = 298.15 K

Taylor dispersion technique was used for measuring mutual diffusion coefficients of sodium alginate aqueous solutions at T = 298.15 K, by using as carrier stream solution both pure water and solutions of this polyelectrolyte at a slightly different concentration. The limiting values found at infinitesimal ionic strength, D⁰, were determined by extrapolating to c → 0. These studies were complemented by molecular mechanics calculations. From the experimental data, it was possible to estimate both the limiting conductivity and the tracer diffusion coefficient values for the alginate anion, and the hydrodynamic radius of the sodium alginate (NaC₆H₇O₆), as well as to discuss the influence of the kinetic, thermodynamic and viscosity factors on the diffusion of sodium alginate in aqueous solutions at finite concentrations. Thus, the aim of our innovative research is to contribute to a better understanding of the structure and the thermodynamic behavior of these polymeric systems in solution and supplying the scientific and technological communities with data on these important parameters in solution transport processes.     

Thermodynamic properties of (tetradecane + benzene, + toluene, + chlorobenzene, + bromobenzene, + anisole) binary mixtures at T = (298.15, 303.15, and 308.15) K

Density ρ, viscosity η, and refractive index n_D, values for (tetradecane + benzene, + toluene, + chlorobenzene, + bromobenzene, + anisole) binary mixtures over the entire range of mole fraction have been measured at temperatures (298.15, 303.15, and 308.15) K at atmospheric pressure. The speed of sound u has been measured at T = 298.15 K only. Using these data, excess molar volume V^E, deviations in viscosity Δη, Lorentz–Lorenz molar refraction ΔR, speed of sound Δu, and isentropic compressibility Δk_s have been calculated. These results have been fitted to the Redlich and Kister polynomial equation to estimate the binary interaction parameters and standard deviations. Excess molar volumes have exhibited both positive and negative trends in many mixtures, depending upon the nature of the second component of the mixture. For the (tetradecane + chlorobenzene) binary mixture, an incipient inversion has been observed. Calculated thermodynamic quantities have been discussed in terms of intermolecular interactions between mixing components.     

Densities,speeds of sound,and refractive indices of the ternary mixtures (toluene + methyl acetate + butyl acetate) and (toluene + methyl acetate + methyl heptanoate) at 298.15 K

Density, ρ, speed of sound, u, and refractive index, n_D, at 298.15 K and atmospheric pressure have been measured over the entire composition range for (toluene + methyl acetate + butyl acetate) and (toluene + methyl acetate + methyl heptanoate) systems. Excess molar volumes, V^E, isentropic compressibility, κ_s, isentropic compressibility deviations, Δκ_s, and changes of refractive index on mixing, Δn_D, for the above systems, have been calculated from experimental data and fitted to Cibulka, Singh et al., and Nagata and Sakura equations, standard deviations from the regression lines are shown. Geometrical solution models, Tsao and Smith, Kholer, Jacob and Fitzner, Rastogi et al. were also applied to predict ternary properties from binary contributions.     

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.     

Ternary mutual diffusion coefficients of aqueous {l-dopa (1) + β-CD (2)} solutions at T = 298.15 K

Ternary mutual diffusion coefficients (D₁₁, D₂₂, D₁₂ and D₂₁) measured by the Taylor dispersion method are reported for aqueous solutions of {levodopa (l-dopa) + β-cyclodextrin (β-CD)} solutions at T = 298.15 K and concentrations up to 0.007 mol · dm⁻³. Significant effects on the diffusion were observed, suggesting interactions between this carbohydrate and l-dopa. Support for this came from ¹H NMR spectroscopy, which shows that these effects are due to formation of 1:1 (β-CD:l-dopa) complexes.     

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.     

Thermodynamics of proton dissociations from aqueous l-methionine at temperatures from (278.15 to 393.15) K,molalities from (0.0125 to 1.0) mol · kg−1, and at the pressure 0.35 MPa: Apparent molar heat capacities and apparent molar volumes of l-methionine,methioninium chloride,and sodium methioninate

We have measured the densities of aqueous solutions of l-methionine, l-methionine plus equimolal HCl, and l-methionine plus equimolal NaOH at temperatures 278.15 ⩽ T/K ⩽ 368.15, at molalities 0.0125 ⩽ m/mol · kg⁻¹ ⩽ 1.0 as solubilities allowed, and at p = 0.35 MPa using a vibrating tube densimeter. We have also measured the heat capacities of these solutions at 278.15 ⩽ T/K ⩽ 393.15 and at the same m and p using a twin fixed-cell differential temperature-scanning calorimeter. We used the densities to calculate apparent molar volumes V_ϕ and the heat capacities to calculate apparent molar heat capacities C_p,ϕ for these solutions. We used our results and values from the literature for V_ϕ(T, m) and C_p,ϕ(T, m) for HCl(aq), NaOH(aq), and NaCl(aq) and the molar heat capacity change Δ_rC_p,m(T, m) for ionization of water to calculate parameters for Δ_rC_p,m(T, m) for the two proton dissociations from protonated aqueous cationic l-methionine. We integrated these results in an iterative algorithm using Young’s Rule to account for the effects of speciation and chemical relaxation on V_ϕ(T, m) and C_p,ϕ(T, m). This procedure yielded parameters for V_ϕ(T, m) and C_p,ϕ(T, m) for methioninium chloride {H₂Met⁺Cl⁻(aq)} and for sodium methioninate {Na⁺Met⁻(aq)} which successfully modeled our observed results. Values are given for Δ_rC_p,m, Δ_rH_m, pQ_a, Δ_rS_m, and Δ_rV_m for the first and second proton dissociations from protonated aqueous l-methionine as functions of T and m.     

Effect of hydrolysis on the diffusion of ferric sulphate in aqueous solutions at T = 298.15 K

Diffusion coefficients of the Fe₂(SO₄)₃)/water system at T = 298.15 K and at concentrations between 0.050 mol · dm⁻³ and 0.200 mol · dm⁻³ have been measured, using a conductimetric cell and an automatic apparatus to follow diffusion. The cell uses an open-ended capillary method. A conductimetric technique is used to follow the diffusion process by measuring the resistance of a solution inside the capillaries at recorded times. These data are discussed on the basis of the Onsager–Fuoss model. The diffusion of Fe₂(SO₄)₃ is clearly affected by the Fe (III) hydrolysis. These data permit us to have a better understanding of the structure of such systems and the thermodynamic behaviour of ferric sulphate in different media.     

Diffusion coefficients of bolaform alkane-1,n-bis(trimethylammonium bromide) surfactants

Mutual diffusion coefficients of alkane-1,n-bis(trimethylammonium bromide), C_nMe₆Br₂ (n = 8, 10, 12), surfactants have been measured using the Taylor dispersion technique, at T = 298.15 K, at concentrations from (0.000 to 0.0380) mol · dm⁻³. The dependence of mutual diffusion coefficients on the concentration has been discussed in the framework of Onsager–Fuoss and Pikal models. On the basis of this discussion, it is suggested that these surfactants behave as associated electrolytes. From limiting mutual diffusion coefficient values, extrapolated from experimental values for c → 0, limiting ionic conductance, tracer diffusion coefficients, and hydration radii of alkane-1,n-bistrymethyl ammonium ions have been estimated. For the case of dodecane-1,12-bis(trimethylammonium bromide), no aggregation has been noticed up to 0.04 mol · dm⁻³.     

Activity coefficients of electrolyte and amino acid in the systems (water + potassium chloride + dl -valine) at T = 298.15 K and (water + sodium chloride + l -valine) at T = 308.15 K

The activity coefficient data were reported for (water  +  potassium chloride  + dl -valine) at T =  298.15 K and (water  +  sodium chloride  + l -valine) at T =  308.15 K. The measurements were performed in an electrochemical cell using ion-selective electrodes. The maximum concentrations of the electrolytes and the amino acids studied were 1.0 molality and 0.4 molality, respectively. The results of the activity coefficients of dl -valine are compared with the activity coefficients of dl -valine in (water  +  sodium chloride  + dl -valine) system obtained from the previous study. The results show that the presence of an electrolyte and the nature of its cation have a significant effect on the activity coefficient of dl -valine in aqueous electrolyte solutions.     

Thermodynamics of proton dissociations from aqueous alanine at temperatures from (278.15 to 393.15) K,molalities from (0.0075 to 1.0) mol · kg−1, and at the pressure 0.35 MPa: Apparent molar heat capacities and apparent molar volumes of alanine,alaninium chloride,and sodium alaninate

We have measured the densities of aqueous solutions of alanine, alanine plus equimolal HCl, and alanine plus equimolal NaOH at temperatures 278.15 ⩽ T/K ⩽ 368.15, at molalities 0.0075 ⩽ m/mol · kg⁻¹ ⩽ 1.0, and at the pressure p = 0.35 MPa using a vibrating tube densimeter. We have also measured the heat capacities of these solutions at 278.15 ⩽ T/K ⩽ 393.15 and at the same m and p using a twin fixed-cell differential temperature-scanning calorimeter. We used the densities to calculate apparent molar volumes V_ϕ and the heat capacities to calculate apparent molar heat capacities C_p,ϕ for these solutions. We used our results and values from the literature for V_ϕ(T, m) and C_p,ϕ(T, m) for HCl(aq), NaOH(aq), and NaCl(aq) and the molar heat capacity change Δ_rC_p,m(T, m) for ionization of water to calculate parameters for Δ_rC_p,m(T, m) for the two proton dissociations from protonated aqueous cationic alanine. We integrated these results in an iterative algorithm using Young’s Rule to account for the effects of speciation and chemical relaxation on V_ϕ(T, m) and C_p,ϕ(T, m). This procedure yielded parameters for V_ϕ(T, m) and C_p,ϕ(T, m) for alaninium chloride {H₂Ala⁺Cl⁻(aq)} and for sodium alaninate {Na⁺Ala⁻(aq)} which successfully modeled our observed results. Values are given for Δ_rC_p,m, Δ_rH_m, pQ_a, Δ_rS_m, and Δ_rV_m for the first and second proton dissociations from protonated aqueous alanine as functions of T and m.

From these densities, apparent and limiting partial molar volumes of the electrolytes and ions have been evaluated and used to obtain the partial molar volume for theClO₄ ⁻  anion.     

Thermodynamics of proton dissociations from aqueous threonine and isoleucine at temperatures from (278.15 to 393.15) K,molalities from (0.01 to 1.0) mol · kg−1, and at the pressure 0.35 MPa: Apparent molar heat capacities and apparent molar volumes of zwitterionic,protonated cationic,and deprotonated anionic forms

We have measured the densities of aqueous solutions of isoleucine, threonine, and equimolal solutions of these two amino acids with HCl and with NaOH at temperatures 278.15 ⩽ T/K ⩽ 368.15, at molalities 0.01 ⩽ m/mol · kg⁻¹ ⩽ 1.0, and at the pressure 0.35 MPa using a vibrating tube densimeter. We have also measured the heat capacities of these solutions at 278.15 ⩽ T/K ⩽ 393.15 and at the same m and p using a twin fixed-cell differential temperature-scanning calorimeter. We used the densities to calculate apparent molar volumes V_ϕ and the heat capacities to calculate apparent molar heat capacities C_p,ϕ for these solutions. We used our results and values from the literature for V_ϕ(T, m) and C_p,ϕ(T, m) for HCl(aq), NaOH(aq), and NaCl(aq) and the molar heat capacity change Δ_rC_p,m(T, m) for ionization of water to calculate parameters for Δ_rC_p,m(T, m) for the two proton dissociations from each of the protonated aqueous cationic amino acids. We used Young’s Rule and integrated these results iteratively to account for the effects of equilibrium speciation and chemical relaxation on V_ϕ(T, m) and C_p,ϕ(T, m). This procedure gave parameters for V_ϕ(T, m) and C_p,ϕ(T, m) for threoninium and isoleucinium chloride and for sodium threoninate and isoleucinate which modeled our observed results within experimental uncertainties. We report values for Δ_rC_p,m, Δ_rH_m, pQ_a, Δ_rS_m, and Δ_rV_m for the first and second proton dissociations from protonated aqueous threonine and isoleucine as functions of T and m.     

Equilibrium solubility of sodium 2-naphthalenesulfonate in binary (sodium chloride + water), (sodium sulfate + water), and (ethanol + water) solvent mixtures at temperatures from (278.15 to 323.15) K

The equilibrium solubility of sodium 2-naphthalenesulfonate in binary (sodium chloride + water), (sodium sulfate + water), and (ethanol + water) solvent mixtures was measured at elevated temperatures from (278.15 to 323.15) K using a steady-state method. With increasing temperatures, the solubility increases in aqueous solvent mixtures. The results of these results were regressed by a modified Apelblat equation. The dissolution entropy and enthalpy determined using the method of the least-squares and the change of Gibbs free energy calculated with the values of Δ_diffS^o and Δ_diffH^o at T = 278.15 K.     

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.     

Excess thermodynamic properties of binary mixtures of N,N-dimethylacetamide with water or water-d2 at temperatures from 277.13 K to 318.15 K

Densities of binary mixtures of N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMA) with water (H₂O) or water-d₂ (D₂O) were measured at the temperatures from T=277.13 K to T=318.15 K by means of a vibrating-tube densimeter. The excess molar volumes V_m^E, calculated from the density data, are negative for the (H₂O + DMA) and (D₂O + DMA) mixtures over the entire range of composition and temperature. The V_m^E curves exhibit a minimum at x(DMA)≅0.4. At each temperature, this minimum is slightly deeper for the (D₂O + DMA) mixtures than for the corresponding (H₂O + DMA) mixtures. The difference between D₂O and H₂O systems becomes smaller when the temperature increases. The V_m^E results were correlated using a modified Redlich–Kister expansion. The partial molar volume of DMA plotted against x(DMA) goes through a sharp minimum in the water-rich region around x(DMA)≅0.08. This minimum is more pronounced the lower the temperature and is deeper in D₂O than in H₂O at each temperature. Again, the difference becomes smaller as the temperature increases. The excess expansion factor α^E plotted against x(DMA) exhibit a maximum in the water rich region of the mole fraction scale. At each temperature, this maximum is higher for the (D₂O + DMA) mixtures than for the corresponding (H₂O + DMA) mixtures, and the difference becomes smaller as the temperature increases. At its maximum, α^E can be even more than 25 per cent of total value of the cubic expansion coefficient α in the (H₂O + DMA) and (D₂O + DMA) mixtures.     

Critical behaviour of { water + n-nonane + sodium di(2-ethyl-1-hexyl)sulphosuccinate } microemulsions

Coexistence curves of ( T, n), ( T, ϕ), and ( T, Ψ), where n, ϕ, and Ψ are the refractive index, volume fraction and effective volume fraction ψ = ϕ / {ϕ +  [(1  − ϕ )ϕ_c / (1  − ϕ_c )]}, respectively, for ternary microemulsion systems of {water  + n -nonane  +  sodium di(2-ethyl-1-hexyl)sulphosuccinate} have been determined at temperatures within 8.7 K above the critical temperature by measurements of refractive index at constant pressure and a constant molar ratio of water to sodium di(2-ethyl-1-hexyl)sulphosuccinate. The critical exponent β deduced from ( T,n ), ( T, ϕ), and ( T, Ψ) coexistence curves was found consistent with nonmonotonic crossover observed in all aqueous ionic solutions. The values of β deduced from the experimental data in the range of 1 K above T_cwere consistent with the universality class of three-dimensional Ising-like systems. The coexistence curves have been interpreted by a combination of the Wegner expansion and the rectilinear diameter. The present results indicate that the molar mass dependence of critical amplitudes, we proposed recently, is valid for microemulsion systems.
