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:
“Today so much rebellion is aimless and demoralizing precisely because children have no values to challenge. Teenage rebellion is a testing process in which young people try out various values in order to make them their own. But during those years of trial, error, embarrassment, a child needs family standards to fall back on, reliable habits of thought and feeling that provide security and protection.”
—Neil Kurshan (20th century)
“With the breakdown of the traditional institutions which convey values, more of the burdens and responsibility for transmitting values fall upon parental shoulders, and it is getting harder all the time both to embody the virtues we hope to teach our children and to find for ourselves the ideals and values that will give our own lives purpose and direction.”
—Neil Kurshan (20th century)
