ABSTRACT
The mean activity coefficients of KCl in the ternary system KCl CuCl2 H2O were experimentally determined at a temperature of 298.15 K by the EMF method (electromotive force measurement) via a battery cell without a liquid junction, K-ISE|KCl (m1), CuCl2 (m2) |Cl-ISE (ISE = ion selective electrode), in the range of total ionic strength from 0.01 to 1.00 mol*kg1 at different ionic strength fractions of CuCl2 with yb = 0.20, 0.40, 0.60, and 0.80. The results show that K-ISE and Cl-ISE have a good Nernst response in this work, and the mean activity coefficients of KCl in the KCl CuCl2 H2O mixture solutions were calculated using the Nernst equation. Mixing interaction parameters K,Cu and K,Cu,Cl in Pitzer s equation were evaluated from the present measurements of the mean activity coefficients of KCl. In addition, the osmotic coefficients, water activity, and the excess Gibbs energy of this system were calculated by Pitzer s equations.
