Abstract
Electromotive-force measurements of the cell
for five values of the ionic strength (I) between 0.1 and 3.0 mol-kg−1 and over the temperature range 5 to 50°C are reported. At I=1.0 and above, the activity coefficients of HCl are a distinctly non-linear function of solution composition. This behavior is satisfactorily accounted for in terms of specific ion interactions of the type H−Cs and H−Cl−Cs. The temperature variation of the Harned coefficient supports the suggestion of Robinson that the interaction H−Cs is insensitive to temperature changes.
