Abstract
Electrical conductance measurements are reported for aqueous NaCl solutions at 25°C as a function of concentration up to 0.02M and pressures up to 2000 atm. The data were analyzed with the Fuoss-Hsia-Fernandez-Prini (FHFP) equation. The standard error of fit, σΛ, varies from 0.04 at 1 atm to 0.10 at 2000 atm. The increase of σΛ with pressure arises from increasing non-randomness in the distribution of errors about the FHFP equation suggesting that modifications in the theory are necessary. The pressure dependence of ΛO for NaCl and KCl is nearly identical.
