Abstract: | Thermodynamic effective fixed charge densities of cobalt tungstate and mercuric chromate parchment supported membranes were evaluated by a number of methods particularly those of Teorell-Meyer-Sievers 19]. Altug and Hair 23] and the most recent one of Kobatake et al. 24, 27] based on the thermodynamics of irreversible processes. The value of the permselectivity was also obtained for the two membranes based on Kobatake et al.'s procedure. Kobatake et al.' equation was used under two limiting conditions of concentration of electrolyte solution, namely (1) in the concentrated range, and (2) in the dilute range. The charge densities obtained under these conditions namely θc and θd were found to differ (θc=1/2θd), but it was interesting to note that θc values were more closer to those of the TMS values. The theoretical predictions for membrane potential using Kobatake et al.'s equation are borne out quite satisfactorily by our experimental results for both membranes. |
