Along I lie saturation line, the steam and water values converge at the critical point. The ability of water to dissolve salts results from the high dielectric constant. The precipitous drop in water dielectric constant in the region of the critical point is very important to the solubility of salts in water near the critical temperature. Many salts exhibit declining solubilities as the critical temperature is approached and then exceeded. The drop in dielectric constant is largely a result of the decline in density. 

A subsequent more important paper by Higashimura and Kishiro dealt with the system styrene-acetyl perdilorate from the point of view of the kinetics of polymerisation and DP distribution. At 0°C a simple kinetic pattern was observed resembling closely that characteristic of the classic tystem styrene-perchloric acid (see Sect. III-E-13-a). The polymers displayed bimodal distributions and the relative inqjortance of the two peaks was studied as a function of temperature, added water, dielectric constant of the medium, catalyst concentration, and common anion concentration. Two alternative possibilities must be considered in the overall interpretation of these results ...

Catalytic supercritical water oxidation is an important class of solid-catalyzed reaction that utilizes advantageous solution properties of supercritical water (dielectric constant, electrolytic conductance, dissociation constant, hydrogen bonding) as well as the superior transport properties of the supercritical medium (viscosity, heat capacity, diffusion coefficient, and density). The most commonly encountered oxidation reaction carried out in supercritical water is the oxidation of alcohols, acetic acid, ammonia, benzene, benzoic acid, butanol, chlorophenol, dichlorobenzene, phenol, 2-propanol (catalyzed by metal oxide catalysts such as CuO/ZnO, Ti02, MnOz, KMn04, V2O5, and Cr203), 2,4-dichlorophenol, methyl ethyl ketone, and pyridine (catalyzed by supported noble metal catalysts such as supported platinum). ... 

The more significant error is associated with the specific mathematical model chosen to describe the system. Each computer code is based on assumptions concerning the equations, algorithms and constants used to compute basic quantities such as the activity coefficients, solvent parameters, (activity of water, dielectric constant, density, etc.), and how these quantities vary with temperature and pressure. None of the commonly used models report the likely range of error which is a... 

Among the most difficult systems to characterize from the electrical standpoint are aqueous suspensions. It is clear from experiment that the ionic double layers as well as the bulk-bulk properties play roles. The effective dielectric constant of about 10,000 can be obtained from what might at first seem to be a simple system of water (dielectric constant 80) containing suspended polymer particles of dielectric constant about 2 Similar results have been obtained with glass spheres or with living cells suspended in aqueous media.

Both quinoline-8-selenol and quinoline-8-thiol exist almost entirely in their zwitter ion forms in water. In 50% v/v dioxane-water (dielectric constant = 32), quinoline-8-selenol is still present entirely as the zwitter ion form, but quinoline-8-thiol, with its significantly lower K. in water, is probably largely in its neutral form in the 50% aqueous dioxane medium.

Mechanism. In terms of the mechanism of proton transfer (a) account for the fact that acetic acid is a weaker acid in ethanol, CgHjOH (dielectric constant = 24.2), than in water (dielectric constant = 79) (b) account for the feet that NH4CI has about the same acidity in both solvents.
