Solute concentration dependence

The solute concentration dependence of the THG intensity is sensitive to whether y for the solute is real or complex. This can be shown qualitatively as follows. The third harmonic intensity is 1(3 )... 

Experimental studies on the surface tension of various solutions showed that the latter can both increase and decrease with increasing solution concentration, depending on the nature of solvents and solutes. Different solutes affect, however, the surface tension of the solvent, o0, in different ways some solutes, when present at extremely small concentrations, can cause a significant decrease in the surface tension, while the others can only insignificantly increase it (Fig. II-3). 

In this paper we wish to report further studies in the gamma radiolysis of the RNO system with special attention paid to solute concentration dependences and to unexpected effects found at low pH. In addition,...

TMAB adsorption equations are shown to give excellent agreement with the pH and solute concentration dependence of solute adsorption for different solute-metal oxide adsorption data. The effects of different solute-surface site complex stoichiometries are examined for TMAB adsorption equations derived to include many different stoichiometries. In most cases these additional stoichiometries have no signifieant effect on total solute adsorption, but no general statement is possible without a more in-depth study. Of partieular importance is the potential interference of adsorption of a particular ion by the eounter ion in the salt. No experimental data were found to eon-firm this effect, but TMAB adsorption equations derived for adsorption of a single ion from a solution of a salt of that ion predieted signifieant adsorption interferenee between the counter ion and ion when both ion and eounter ion have mass aetion adsorption constants of similar magnitude. 

Note that in liquid phase chromatography there are no detectors that are both sensitive and universal, that is, which respond linearly to solute concentration regardless of its chemical nature. In fact, the refractometer detects all solutes but it is not very sensitive its response depends evidently on the difference in refractive indices between solvent and solute whereas absorption and UV fluorescence methods respond only to aromatics, an advantage in numerous applications. Unfortunately, their coefficient of response (in ultraviolet, absorptivity is the term used) is highly variable among individual components. 

It must be kept in mind that both pictures are modelistic and invoke extrather-modynamic concepts. Except mathematically, there is no such thing as a two-dimensional gas, and the solution whose osmotic pressure is calculated is not uniform in composition, and its average concentration depends on the depth assumed for the surface layer.

Diffusion may be defined as the movement of a species due to a concentration gradient, which seeks to maximize entropy by overcoming inhomogeneities within a system. The rate of diffusion of a species, the flux, at a given point in solution is dependent upon the concentration gradient at that particular point and was first described by Pick in 1855, who considered the simple case of linear difflision to a planar surface ... 

In Table 8.26, E° represents the redox potential at which the color change of the indicator would normally be perceived in a solution containing approximately 1A7H+. Lor a one-color indicator this is the potential at which the concentration of the colored form is just large enough to impart a visible color to the solution and depends on the total concentration of indicator added to the solution. If it is the reduced form of the indicator that is colorless, the potential at which the first visible color... 

Although the terms solute and solution are often associated with liquid samples, they can be extended to gas-phase and solid-phase samples as well. The actual units for reporting concentration depend on how the amounts of solute and solution are measured. Table 2.4 lists the most common units of concentration. 

For gases, pure solids, pure liquids, and nonionic solutes, activity coefficients are approximately unity under most reasonable experimental conditions. For reactions involving only these species, differences between activity and concentration are negligible. Activity coefficients for ionic solutes, however, depend on the ionic composition of the solution. It is possible, using the extended Debye-Htickel theory, to calculate activity coefficients using equation 6.50... 

Thus we have finally established how light scattering can be used to measure the molecular weight of a solute. The concentration dependence of r enters Eq. (10.54) through an expression for osmotic pressure, and this surprising connection deserves some additional comments ... 

The type of initiator utilized for a solution polymerization depends on several factors, including the solubiUty of the initiator, the rate of decomposition of the initiator, and the intended use of the polymeric product. The amount of initiator used may vary from a few hundredths to several percent of the monomer weight. As the amount of initiator is decreased, the molecular weight of the polymer is increased as a result of initiating fewer polymer chains per unit weight of monomer, and thus the initiator concentration is often used to control molecular weight. Organic peroxides, hydroperoxides, and azo compounds are the initiators of choice for the preparations of most acryUc solution polymers and copolymers. 

Manganate(VI) formed in the initial oxidation process must first be dissolved in a dilute solution of potassium hydroxide. The concentrations depend on the type of electrolytic cell employed. For example, the continuous Cams cell uses 120 150 g/L KOH and 50 60 g/L K MnO the batch-operated Bitterfeld cell starts out with KOH concentrations of 150 160 g/L KOH and 200 220 g/L K MnO. These concentration parameters minimize the disproportionation of the K MnO and control the solubiUty of the KMnO formed in the course of electrolysis. 

For many modeling purposes, Nhas been assumed to be 1 (42), resulting in a simplified equation, S = C, where is the linear distribution coefficient. This assumption usually works for hydrophobic polycycHc aromatic compounds sorbed on sediments, if the equdibrium solution concentration is <10 M (43). For many pesticides, the error introduced by the assumption of linearity depends on the deviation from linearity. 

In aqueous solution, riboflavin has absorption at ca 220—225, 226, 371, 444 and 475 nm. Neutral aqueous solutions of riboflavin have a greenish yellow color and an intense yellowish green fluorescence with a maximum at ca 530 nm and a quantum yield of = 0.25 at pH 2.6 (10). Fluorescence disappears upon the addition of acid or alkah. The fluorescence is used in quantitative deterrninations. The optical activity of riboflavin in neutral and acid solutions is [a]=+56.5-59.5° (0.5%, dil HCl). In an alkaline solution, it depends upon the concentration, eg, [a] J =—112-122° (50 mg in 2 mL 0.1 Ai alcohohc NaOH diluted to 10 mL with water). Borate-containing solutions are strongly dextrorotatory, because borate complexes with the ribityl side chain of riboflavin = +340° (pH 12). 

The solubility of boric acid in water (Table 6) increases rapidly with temperature. The heat of solution is somewhat concentration dependent. For solutions having molalities in the range 0.03—0.9 the molar heats of solution fit the empirical relation (49) ... 

The concentration dependence of iron corrosion in potassium chloride [7447-40-7] sodium chloride [7647-14-5] and lithium chloride [7447-44-8] solutions is shown in Figure 5 (21). In all three cases there is a maximum in corrosion rate. For NaCl this maximum is at approximately 0.5 Ai (about 3 wt %). Oxygen solubiUty decreases with increasing salt concentration, thus the lower corrosion rate at higher salt concentrations. The initial iacrease in the iron corrosion rate is related to the action of the chloride ion in concert with oxygen. The corrosion rate of iron reaches a maximum at ca 70°C. As for salt concentration, the increased rate of chemical reaction achieved with increased temperature is balanced by a decrease in oxygen solubiUty. 

Since the infinite dilution values D°g and Dba. re generally unequal, even a thermodynamically ideal solution hke Ya = Ys = 1 will exhibit concentration dependence of the diffusivity. In addition, nonideal solutions require a thermodynamic correction factor to retain the true driving force for molecular diffusion, or the gradient of the chemical potential rather than the composition gradient. That correction factor is ... 

For noncoustaut diffusivity, a numerical solution of the conseiwa-tion equations is generally required. In molecular sieve zeohtes, when equilibrium is described by the Langmuir isotherm, the concentration dependence of the intracrystalline diffusivity can often be approximated by Eq. (16-72). The relevant rate equation is ...
