Abstract

Precise conductance measurements on aqueous potassium chloride solutions at 0, 10, 18, and 25°C have been made under various conditions over a concentration range 10−4<c<5×10−2 mole-dm−3, yielding the conductance equations

$$\begin{gathered} 25^\circ C:\Lambda = 149.873 - 95.01\sqrt c + 38.48c log c + 183.1c - 176.4c^{3/2} \hfill \\ 18^\circ C:\Lambda = 129.497 - 80.38\sqrt c + 32.87c log c + 154.3c - 143.0c^{3/2} \hfill \\ 10^\circ C:\Lambda = 107.359 - 64.98\sqrt c + 27.07c log c + 125.4c - 110.3c^{3/2} \hfill \\ 0^\circ C:\Lambda = 81.700 - 47.80\sqrt c + 20.60c log c + 93.8c - 79.3c^{3/2} \hfill \\ \end{gathered} $$

which are proposed for calibration of conductance cells.
