An extension of the corresponding states approach of Pitzer and of Lee and Kesler (PitzerLee-Kesler (PLK) strategy) based on the work of Teja et al. (PLKT strategy) provides a clear pedagogical setting for describing the underlying basis of the PLK strategy itself and also its extension to families of non-normal fluids. Application of the strategy to two families of nonnormal fluids is illustra...

We examined the variation with ionic strength (I, adjusted with KCl, KNO(3), KBr, NaCl or NaClO(4)) of the formal potential (E(const)) for glass electrodes exhibiting a Nernstian response (i.e. E(cell)=E(const)-slog[H(+)]). For this purpose, we investigated the different factors included in the formal potential, so we obtained reported values for the liquid junction potential as a function of i...

The comprehensive topological isomorphism of liquid–vapor, fusibility, and solubility diagrams in the proper sets variables is proven with aid van der Waals equations shift phase equilibrium. Analogues Gibbs–Konovalov Gibbs–Roozeboom laws are demonstrated ternary quaternary systems under crystallization different types solid solutions. For demonstration, reciprocal system K+,NH4+||Cl−,Br−−H2O i...

Available literature on the thermodynamic properties of binary CoSO4 – H2O system has been reviewed and used to derive a model for calculating solution phase equilibria in thermodynamically consistent manner. The is based Pitzer ion interaction approach and, with 10 adjustable parameters, able reproduce available data good accuracy from 270 374 K. length exact form temperature dependence was op...

A PURPOSELESS EDUCATION?—Wilbur H. "Ping" Ferry, a social critic and gadfly from the Center for the Study of Democratic Institutions, offers a comment about "the war against mental poverty," while Professor William Arrowsmith looks on, in last Friday's campus symposium on "The University: What Purpose?" Other panelists included Dean Louis H. Pollak of the Yale University Law School, and Rice Pr...

HAL is a multi-disciplinary open access archive for the deposit and dissemination of scientific research documents, whether they are published or not. The documents may come from teaching and research institutions in France or abroad, or from public or private research centers. L’archive ouverte pluridisciplinaire HAL, est destinée au dépôt et à la diffusion de documents scientifiques de niveau...
