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:
“Science has nothing to be ashamed of even in the ruins of Nagasaki. The shame is theirs who appeal to other values than the human imaginative values which science has evolved.”
—Jacob Bronowski (1908–1974)
“The return to solid values is always hard.... Distress, panic, and hard times have marked our pathway in returning to solid values.”
—James A. Garfield (1831–1881)
