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:
“Tallulah [Bankhead] was the foremost naughty girl of her era but, in those days, “naughty” meant piquant, whereas values have so changed that now, in the 1970s, it generally means nauseating.”
—Anita Loos (1888–1981)
“I describe family values as responsibility towards others, increase of tolerance, compromise, support, flexibility. And essentially the things I call the silent song of life—the continuous process of mutual accommodation without which life is impossible.”
—Salvador Minuchin (20th century)
