Abstract

This paper proposes a new method for determining the intrinsic acidity constantsK int a1 andK int aj . The new method is a great improvement over the modified Langmuir plot method generally adopted in that determination of these constants is not dependent on the specific surface area\(\bar S\) of the marine solid particles. The new method was used to determineK int a1 ,K int2a and\(\bar S\) for the main inorganic components of marine solid particles, including illite, montmorillonite, kaolinite, goethite, γ-AlOOH. amorphous ferric oxide, δ-MnO2, manganite, SiO2 and calcium carbonate, and can facilitate the study on the effect of solution constituents, solution temperature, ionic strength, etc. on the value of\(\bar S\).
