Dependence for Nonelectrolytes

The intrinsic viscosity [77] is defined as the limiting value of the reduced viscosity rjsp/c =rjsplc2) at infinite dilution. Since measurements are made at finite concentrations, a suitable equation is required in order that values of i sp/c, or related quantities, may be extrapolated to c 0. The extrapolation should be as linear as possible over the range r/rei = 1.2-2.

All the extrapolation formulas introduced to date are empirical. The much used expressions of Schulz and Blaschke, Huggins, and Kraemer start from the relationship 

The extrapolation formula that is obtained by transforming Equation 

The numerical evaluation of experimental data shows that Equations (9-131)-(9-134) and (9-137) yield different values of [rj] and k. Since 

On inserting this expression in equation (9-136), we obtain the Huggins equation 

The numerical evaluation of experimental data shows that equations (9-137)-(9-139) and (9-142) yield different values of [rj] and k. Since equations (9-139) and (9-142) are approximations of equation (9-136), they must, a priori, extend over a narrower concentration range. This argument naturally assumes that equation (9-136) really describes the concentration dependence of rj p/c adequatly. For wider concentration ranges, the Martin (sometimes referred to as the Bungenberg-de Jong) equation is used in the form

A solute in a given solvent may remain unionized (nonelectrolyte) or may ionize (electrolyte). For nonelectrolytes, 1 millimole (mmol i.e., one formula weight in mg) represents 1 mOsm. For electrolytes, osmolarity depends on the total number of particles in solution which in turn depends on the degree of dissociation of a solute. For example, 1 mmol of completely dissociated KC1 represents 2 mOsm of total particles (i.e., K+ + CT). Similarly, 1 mmol of CaCl2 represents 3 mOsm of total particles (i.e., Ca++ + CT + CT). 

The most important shortcoming of GSE is that it is valid only for nonelectrolytes, whereas many drug compounds and compounds in screening libraries are acidic or basic. In this case the solubility is pH-dependent. If one assumes for simplicity s sake that the ionized form is infinitely soluble in water, then the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation can be used to calculate the solubility at a given... 

Urea, as a cosolvent, is at the other extreme. All the concentration dependences of the binary and ternary systems are quite regular. The excess volume (Figure 6) is positive, which is rarely observed for nonelectrolytes in water. With the exception of the heat capacities of Bu4NBr, all the parameters Beu are positive for volumes and heat capacities, and the sign of the transfer functions is always opposite what we would expect for the structural hydration contribution to V° and Cp°. 

Seawater contains dissolved inorganic salts. An aqueous solution of about 35 gL-1 NaCl is often taken as a model solution for seawater. The salt effect on the solubility of nonelectrolyte organic compounds has been investigated systematically by Sechenov [68] and by Long and McDevit [69]. Correlations between pure water solubility, Sw, and the solubility at different salt concentrations are compound dependent. For example, the seawater solubility, 5SW, of PAHs are from 30 to 60% below their freshwater solubilities [1], depending on the particular structure of the PAH. We concentrate our interest on the question if, for certain compound classes, Ssw can be estimated from known Sw without any input of further compound-specific parameters. 

The LCM is a semi-theoretical model with a minimum number of adjustable parameters and is based on the Non-Random Two Liquid (NRTL) model for nonelectrolytes (20). The LCM does not have the inherent drawbacks of virial-expansion type equations as the modified Pitzer, and it proved to be more accurate than the Bromley method. Some advantages of the LCM are that the binary parameters are well defined, have weak temperature dependence, and can be regressed from various thermodynamic data sources. Additionally, the LCM does not require ion-pair equilibria to correct for activity coefficient prediction at higher ionic strengths. Thus, the LCM avoids defining, and ultimately solving, ion-pair activity coefficients and equilibrium expressions necessary in the Davies technique. Overall, the LCM appears to be the most suitable activity coefficient technique for aqueous solutions used in FGD hence, a data base and methods to use the LCM were developed. 

These complexes are isoelectronic and isostructural with the bis-phosphine Ir carbonyl chloride complex, but they differ in two respects (a) the reaction with is irreversible and (b) the oxidative addition of yields three different cis isomers as a result of a solvent dependence for this addition. The complexes trans-CPR ROjIrCCOftr-carb) (R = CjHj R = CgHj, CHj) react with or D, giving the (PR ROjIrH (or D ) (CO)((T-carb) dihydrides or dideuterides. These complexes are colorless crystalline compounds, nonelectrolytes in solution and stable with respect to thermal loss of either carborane or H, however, they are light sensitive. 

It is rare to find diffusivity data of most species at any concentration near saturation. It is, therefore, necessary to first estimate the diffusivity at saturation after which the diffusivity in the supersaturated solution can be estimated. To estimate the diffusivity at saturation from low concentration data requires the use of an equation for concentration-dependent diffusion coefficients that can be used with solid solutes dissolved in liquid solvents. One such equation that can be used for nonelectrolytes is the... 

Adsorptive accumulation can also be used in chronopotentiometric stripping as the preconcentration step allowing a large number of organic compoimds to be determined. It is assumed that the adsorption kinetics is sufficiently rapid for the process to be mass transport controlled. During the preconcentration step, the solution is normally stirred in order to enhance the mass transport of the analyte to the electrode smface, thereby reducing the time required for preconcentration. For nonelectrolytic or adsorptive accumulation, tacc has an upper limit governed by the time required for the electrode to be saturated with a monolayer of adsorbate. This is determined experimentally and will depend on the mass transport conditions that exist in the electrochemical cell. For example, the amount of adsorbed metal ion complex would be... 

We learn that physical properties such as the vapor pressure, melting point, boiling point, and osmotic pressure of a solution depend only on the concentration and not the identity of the solute present. We first study these colligative properties and their applications for nonelectrolyte solutions. (12.6)... 

Collections of useful Pitzer parameters can be taken from Rosenblatt [11], Zemaitis et al. [12], and Pitzer [13]. Temperature-dependent interaction parameters should be used if a wide temperature range must be covered, as it is common practice for nonelectrolyte systems as well. It is important especially for strong acids and bases. The Pitzer equation is usually valid up to molalities of 6 mol/kg. 

Diamond (2003) use this as a starting point to develop an equation of state for nonelectrolytes, many of which are gaseous under normal conditions. This is of course derived from the virial equation, and has the usual limitation of being valid only at low to moderate densities. Akinfiev and Diamond propose an equation to describe the binary interaction parameter By as a function of P and T. Because By in the virial equation is a function only of T and is independent of P, the development in Akinfiev and Diamond departs from virial theory, using it only as a starting point. For two components, the B terms in (13.47) become AB, called AB, to which they ascribe the temperature dependence... 

The effects of solutes on colligative properties depend upon the actual concentration of solute particles. For nonelectrolytes, the solute particle concentration is the same as the solute concentration. This is because nonelectrolytes, such as sucrose, do not ionize in solution. Electrolytes are substances that ionize or that dissociate into ions. Thus, electrolytes produce particle concentrations higher than those of the original substance. For example, sodium chloride, NaCl, dissociates almost completely into separate sodium ions and chloride ions, so a Im NaCl solution is actually nearly 2m in particles. 

Hayduk-Laudie They presented a simple correlation for the infinite dilution diffusion coefficients of nonelectrolytes in water. It has about the same accuracy as the Wilke-Chang equation (about 5.9 percent). There is no explicit temperature dependence, but the 1.14 exponent on I compensates for the absence of T in the numerator. That exponent was misprinted (as 1.4) in the original article and has been reproduced elsewhere erroneously. 

Concentrated, Binary Mixtures of Nonelectrolytes Several correlations that predict the composition dependence of Dab. re summarized in Table 5-19. Most are based on known values of D°g and Dba- In fact, a rule of thumb states that, for many binary systems, D°g and Dba bound the Dab vs. Xa cuiwe. CuUinan s equation predicts dif-fusivities even in hen of values at infinite dilution, but requires accurate density, viscosity, and activity coefficient data. 

Some interesting results have been obtained by Akand and Wyatt56 for the effect of added non-electrolytes upon the rates of nitration of benzenesulphonic acid and benzoic acid (as benzoic acidium ion in this medium) by nitric acid in sulphuric acid. Division of the rate coefficients obtained in the presence of nonelectrolyte by the concentration of benzenesulphonic acid gave rate coefficients which were, however, dependent upon the sulphonic acid concentration e.g. k2 was 0.183 at 0.075 molal, 0.078 at 0.25 molal and 0.166 at 0.75 molal (at 25 °C). With a constant concentration of non-electrolyte (sulphonic acid +, for example, 2, 4, 6-trinitrotoluene) the rate coefficients were then independent of the initial concentration of sulphonic acid and only dependent upon the total concentration of non-electrolyte. For nitration of benzoic acid a very much smaller effect was observed nitromethane and sulphuryl chloride had a similar effect upon the rate of nitration of benzenesulphonic acid. No explanation was offered for the phenomenon. 

It follows from these eqnations that in dilute ideal solutions, said effects depend only on the concentration, not on the nature of the solute. These relations hold highly accnrately in dilnte solntions of nonelectrolytes (up to about lO M). It is remarkable that Eq. (7.1) coincides, in both its form and the numerical value of constant R, with the eqnation of state for an ideal gas. It was because of this coincidence that the concept of ideality of a system was transferred from gases to solntions. As in an ideal gas, there are no chemical and other interactions between solnte particles in an ideal solution. 

Similarly, concepts of solvation must be employed in the measurement of equilibrium quantities to explain some anomalies, primarily the salting-out effect. Addition of an electrolyte to an aqueous solution of a non-electrolyte results in transfer of part of the water to the hydration sheath of the ion, decreasing the amount of free solvent, and the solubility of the nonelectrolyte decreases. This effect depends, however, on the electrolyte selected. In addition, the activity coefficient values (obtained, for example, by measuring the freezing point) can indicate the magnitude of hydration numbers. Exchange of the open structure of pure water for the more compact structure of the hydration sheath is the cause of lower compressibility of the electrolyte solution compared to pure water and of lower apparent volumes of the ions in solution in comparison with their effective volumes in the crystals. Again, this method yields the overall hydration number. 

Osmotic pressure is a colligative property and is dependent on the number of particles of solute(s) in a solution. The total number of particles of a solute in a solution is the sum of the undissociated molecules and the number of ions into which the molecule dissociates. The number of ions, in turn, depends on the degree of ionization. Thus, a chemical that is highly ionized contributes a greater number of particles to the solution than the same amount of a poorly ionized chemical. When a chemical is a nonelectrolyte such as sucrose or urea, the concentration of the solution depends only on the number of molecules present. The values of the osmotic pressure and other colligative properties are approximately the same for equal concentrations of different nonelectrolyte solutions. 

In the preceding chapters we considered Raoult s law and Henry s law, which are laws that describe the thermodynamic behavior of dilute solutions of nonelectrolytes these laws are strictly valid only in the limit of infinite dilution. They led to a simple linear dependence of the chemical potential on the logarithm of the mole fraction of solvent and solute, as in Equations (14.6) (Raoult s law) and (15.5) (Heiuy s law) or on the logarithm of the molality of the solute, as in Equation (15.11) (Hemy s law). These equations are of the same form as the equation derived for the dependence of the chemical potential of an ideal gas on the pressure [Equation (10.15)].
