Abstract
In an earlier study, the activity coefficients of aqueous mixtures of HCl with the hydrochlorides of tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane (Tris) ort-butylamine (t-B) were determined at ionic strengths of 0.1, 0.5, and 1.0 mol-kg−1. The work has been extended to ionic strengths of 2.0 and 3.0 through emf measurements with hydrogen and AgCl/Ag electrodes at 25°C. The results are considered in terms of Harned's rule and the Pitzer and Rush-Johnson-Scatchard treatments of activity coefficients in electrolyte mixtures. In order to compare ionic interaction parameters in the two systems, the activity coefficients and osmotic coefficients of t-butylammonium chloride at molalities up to saturation (7.14 mol-kg−1) were determined by the gravimetric isopiestic method with solutions of NaCl as reference. The behavior for both systems can be accounted for satisfactorily in terms of binary (H+−N+) and ternary (H+−N+−Cl−) interactions, where N+ is either Tris·H+ or t-B·H+.
