Activity (chemistry) - Example Values

Example Values

Example values of activity coefficients of sodium chloride in aqueous solution are given in the table. In an ideal solution, these values would all be unity. The deviations tend to become larger with increasing molality and temperature, but with some exceptions.

Molality (mol/kg) 25 °C 50 °C 100 °C 200 °C 300 °C 350 °C
0.05 0.820 0.814 0.794 0.725 0.592 0.473
0.50 0.680 0.675 0.644 0.619 0.322 0.182
2.00 0.669 0.675 0.641 0.450 0.212 0.074
5.00 0.873 0.886 0.803 0.466 0.167 0.044

Famous quotes containing the word values:

    Despite the hundreds of attempts, police terror and the concentration camps have proved to be more or less impossible subjects for the artist; since what happened to them was beyond the imagination, it was therefore also beyond art and all those human values on which art is traditionally based.
    A. Alvarez (b. 1929)

    To be faced with what so-and-so’s mother lets him do, or what the teacher said in class today or what all the kids are wearing is to be required to reexamine some part of our belief structure. Each time we rethink our values we reaffirm them or begin to change them. Seen in this way, parenthood affords us an exceptional opportunity for growth.
    Ruth Davidson Bell (20th century)
