Abstract

Activity coefficients for NaCl in aqueous mixtures with Na-Formate were determined at 25°C from emf measurements for different total ionic strengths. At each total ionic strength studied, the measurements were carried out at different ratios of the Na-Formate to NaCl ionic strengths. The experimental activity coefficients were fitted using the Harned equation and the treatments of Scatchard et al. and Pitzer et al. Finally, the excess Gibbs energy of these mixtures was also calculated.
