Abstract

The empirical parameters of a two-parameter SIT equation were determined for some 1:1 electrolytes: chlorides, bromides, iodides, nitrates, perchlorates and carboxylates of alkali metals, inorganic acids and bases, and tetralkylammonium halides. A wide range of ionic strengths were considered. Canonical correlation analysis identified correlations between the SIT and Pitzer interaction coefficients for different classes of 1:1 type electrolytes.
