Ionic Strength - Non-ideal Solutions

Non-ideal Solutions

Because in non-ideal solutions volumes are no longer strictly additive it is often preferable to work with molality b (mol/kg{H2O}) rather than molarity c (mol/L). In that case, ionic strength is defined as:

in which

i = individual element identification number
z = charge of element

Famous quotes containing the word solutions:

    “Every man is in a state of conflict, owing to his attempt to reconcile himself and his relationship with life to his conception of harmony. This conflict makes his soul a battlefield, where the forces that wish this reconciliation fight those that do not and reject the alternative solutions they offer. Works of art are attempts to fight out this conflict in the imaginative world.”
    —Rebecca West (1892–1983)
