H2O−D2O solvent isotope effect in the volume behavior of some high-charge high-size electrolytes

The apparent molar volumes V of KCl, BaCl₂, K₂SO₄, LaCl₃, Co(en)₃Cl₃ [Tris(ethylenediamine)cobalt(III) chloride], K₃Co(CN)₆, K₃Fe(CN)₆, K₄Fe(CN)₆, and Ba₃[Co(CN)₆]₂ have been determined at 25°C in both light and heavy water. The V values in D₂O are systematically lower and increase more rapidly with salt concentration than the V in H₂O. The volume of transfer from H₂O to D₂O as well as the partial molar volume at infinite dilution in both solvents have also been calculated. These results together with literature values for other electrolytes were used to estimate both of these quantities for D₂O solutions of individual ions. The predictions of ion hydration models and ion-ion interactions are compared with experimental observations.     

Thermodynamics of mixed electrolyte solutions. XI. An isopiestic study of the quaternary system NaCl−KCl−CaCl2−H2O at 25°C

Osmotic and activity coefficients in the aqueous quaternary system sodium chloride-potassium chloride-calcium chloride were derived from isopiestic measurements at 25°C. The isopiestic data were treated by the various procedures of Scatchard, Friedman, and Reilly, Wood, and Robinson. The results obtained showed good agreement with those obtained by pseudo-ternary transforms. Interaction parameters obtained indicated the preponderance of pairwise interactions. Excess Gibbs free energies of mixing were calculated.     

Heat capacities of concentrated multicomponent aqueous electrolyte solutions at various temperatures

The specific heat capacities of the aqueous multicomponent system NaCl +KCl+MgCl₂+CaCl₂ with ionic strength between 8.3 and 9.6 (resembling Dead Sea waters) were measured between 15°C and 45°C. The obtained data were fitted to an empirical equation as a function of concentration and temperature. The thermodynamic functions of the studied multicomponent system were found to be strongly influenced by changes in MgCl₂ concentrations. The application of Young's rule to such concentrated systems was checked at 25°C. The calculated (by Young's rule) specific heat capacitiesC _p and apparent molar heat capacities C_p, of these multicomponent electrolyte solutions were in reasonable agreement with the measured values (–0.008 J-g^–1-K^–1 and –2.6 J-mol^–1-K^–1, respectively).     

Transference numbers for anhydrous methanol solutions at 10 and 25°C

Transference numbers are reported for LiCl and NaCl in methanol at 25°C and for NaCl, KCl, and Bu₄NBr in methanol at 10°C. The potentiometric moving-boundary method as developed by Kay and Fratiello was employed to give a precision of about 0.05% and an accuracy of at least 0.1% as indicated by two independent determinations of the conductances of the Cl^– and Br^– ions. The data are extrapolated by the Fuoss-Onsager theory, and the magnitude of the electrophoretic effect is calculated as described by Kay and Dye. The agreement with this theory is quite good at both temperatures, although the å value required in the case of Bu₄NBr is considerably larger than that obtained from conductance data. This agreement contrasts with that obtained for ethanol and acetone solutions where the measured electrophoretic effect is considerably larger than the corresponding calculated values. The importance of this fact in the determination of ion-pair association constants is discussed.

UV–vis absorption spectroscopic study for on-line monitoring of uranium concentration in LiCl–KCl eutectic salt

UV–vis absorption spectroscopy of uranium in LiCl–KCl eutectic salt at 773 K was studied for the on-site use in pyrochemical process. Uranium(III) chloride was electrochemically prepared from uranium metal in LiCl–KCl eutectic salt at 773 K by using chronopotentiometry. Three absorption peak positions were selected and calibrated for the quantitative analysis of uranium in the molten salt medium. The molar absorptivity and minimum detectable concentration for the selected wavelength were obtained with a confidence level of 99%.     

Molecular dynamics simulation of ionic transport on molten Li–KCl interface

A molecular dynamics study is performed to determine the dynamics and transport properties of the ions on the molten interface between anode metal Li and electrolyte KCl. Radial distribution function of the ionic pair and the behavior of the mean‐square displacement (MSD) as a function of time (t) indicate that KCl and metal Li are in the molten state at 2,200 K in the canonical ensemble. The dynamics of the ionic transport are characterized by studying MSD for the centers of mass of the ions at different temperatures. Diffusion coefficient is evaluated from the linear slope of the MSD (t) function in the range of 0–500 ps. The MSD and diffusion coefficient of the Li⁺ ions are much larger than those of the Cl^? and K⁺ ions due to the difference in ionic characteristic. The transport process has been dominated by the Li⁺ ions on the molten interface and the Li⁺ ions are main charge carriers. The energy barrier of the Li⁺ ions transporting into the molten KCl is fitted to be 5.28 kcal/mol in the light of the activation model. The electrical conductivity of the Li⁺ ions transporting into the molten KCl are calculated from the Nernst–Einstein formula to be in the range of 0.2–0.3 S cm^?1. The current density resulted from the Li⁺ ions through the interface are estimated to be an order of 10⁶ A cm^?2, which may be the value corresponding to a larger concentration gradient of the Li⁺ ions. Simulated results at different temperatures show that the diffusion coefficient, conductivity and current density have increased with the temperature. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Water assisted thermal segregation

Solid state purification generally requires efficient diffusion mechanisms in order to allow impurity migration towards the sample surface, from which it can be removed by a suitable mean. Since solid state diffusion just becomes efficient near the melting point, generally high working temperatures are required, resulting in expensive, energy consuming processes. The addition of small amounts of a common liquid solvent of both matrix and impurity results, even at low temperatures, in effective diffusion mechanisms the thermodynamical aspects of which are discussed in this work. Thermal cycling enhances the efficiency of the described process. Its concerns industrial and analytical applications.
