EVALUATED ACTIVITY AND OSMOTIC COEFFICIENTS FOR AQUEOUS-SOLUTIONS - IRON CHLORIDE AND THE BI-UNIVALENT COMPOUNDS OF NICKEL AND COBALT

A critical evaluation of the mean activity and osmotic coefficients in aqueous solutions of iron chloride, nickel chloride, perchlorate, and nitrate and twenty‐nine bi‐univalent compounds of cobalt at 298.15 K is presented. Osmotic coefficients were calculated from direct vapor pressure measurements, from isopiestic measurements, from freezing point depression measurements, and from vapor pressure osmometry measurements. Given are empirical coefficients for three different correlating equations, obtained by a weighted least squares fit of the experimental data, and tables consisting of the activity coefficients of the compounds, the osmotic coefficients and activity of water, and the excess Gibbs energy of the solution as functions of the molality for each electrolyte system.
