HOC distribution coefficients (KD) between the immobile and mobile compartments varied as a function of solution chemistry and surfactant dose, KD values increased with increasing surfactant dose at low surfactant concentrations, but decreased at higher doses. This trend indicates that competition for HOC partitioning occurs between sorbed- and micellar-phase surfactants. Overall, the results of this study demonstrate that retardation of HOCs by surfactants sorbed to the solid phase can be significant and must be considered for proper evaluation of treatment/remediation alternatives that use surfactants. 

In this chapter, we introduced the reader to some basic principles of solution chemistry with emphasis on the C02-carbonate acid system. An array of equations necessary for making calculations in this system was developed, which emphasized the relationships between concentrations and activity and the bridging concept of activity coefficients. Because most carbonate sediments and rocks are initially deposited in the marine environment and are bathed by seawater or modified seawater solutions for some or much of their history, the carbonic acid system in seawater was discussed in more detail. An example calculation for seawater saturation state was provided to illustrate how such calculations are made, and to prepare the reader, in particular, for material in Chapter 4. We now investigate the relationships between solutions and sedimentary carbonate minerals in Chapters 2 and 3.

The success of any new technology depends on its correlation to established methodologies. Table 4 summarizes comparisons between dry reagent chemistries made by several manufacturers (44, 46, 56, 57) and conventional solution chemistries. In most cases, the correlation coefficients are greater than 0.95, with the slopes of the correlations close to unity. 

The TLM (Davis and Leckie, 1978) is the most complex model described in Figure 4. It is an example of an SCM. These models describe sorption within a framework similar to that used to describe reactions between metals and ligands in solutions (Kentef fll., 1988 Davis and Kent, 1990 Stumm, 1992). Reactions involving surface sites and solution species are postulated based on experimental data and theoretical principles. Mass balance, charge balance, and mass action laws are used to predict sorption as a function of solution chemistry. Different SCMs incorporate different assumptions about the nature of the solid - solution interface. These include the number of distinct surface planes where cations and anions can attach (double layer versus triple layer) and the relations between surface charge, electrical capacitance, and activity coefficients of surface species. 

In these results the effects of surface and solution chemistry on particle deposition are represented by the sticking coefficient or attachment probability (or), defined in this case as the rate at which particles adhere to a grain of aquifer media divided by the rate at which they contact it. In Figure 11, a is assumed as 1 (perfect sticking) and also as 10-3 (one collision in every 1000... 

It is well known from solution chemistry that the equihbrium constants defined in terms of concentrations (Eq. (5.7) have conditional character (they are constant as long as the quotient of activity coefficients of reagents remains constant), and the real equilibrium constants (Eq. (2.23)) are defined in terms of activities. Use of the same variable c, in Mass Law and mass balance equations is essential in the algorithm solving the problem of chemical equilibrium, but the same algorithm can be applied after replacement of Eq. (5.7) by Mass Law written in terms of activities ... 

A controversy exists between the proponents of ion-association versus the ion-interaction approach. This controversy usually revolves around the issue of chemical realism since many known ion pairs such as CaSO ° were not explicitly defined by the ion-interaction approach. However, the impact of the strong iomc interaction can be reflected in the magnitude of the virial coefficient terms. More recently, this deficiency has been addressed for the carbonate system, however, questions still remain whether mked methodologies reflect the true solution chemistry or are simply forced fits of experimental data. 

L2 is one of the more commonly measured calorimetric quantities in solution chemistry, and equation (9.33) is the fundamental basis for these measurements. As mentioned earlier, this is commonly done by measuring heats of dilution rather than of solution. It is related to the temperature derivative of the activity coefficient, as shown in 12.5.1.

Activity coefficients strongly depend on the ionic strength of a solution. Activity coefficients are responsible for influencing the magnitude of various equilibrium constants of interest to chemistry. Solute activities have minimal influence in TEQA for two reasons ...
