Ionic association in asymmetric electrolytes

The cluster theory of electrolytes previously developed for symmetric salts has been extended to the asymmetric 1:2 electrolytes. The intracluster contribution to the configurational Helmholtz energy was calculated for different cluster diameters in order to include this parameter in a Helmholtz-ene...

description The cluster theory of electrolytes previously developed for symmetric salts has been extended to the asymmetric 1:2 electrolytes. The intracluster contribution to the configurational Helmholtz energy was calculated for different cluster diameters in order to include this parameter in a Helmholtz-energy minimization procedure. We have calculated the speciation for model asymmetric electrolytes as a function of the strength of the interparticle interactions and compared the results with those for equivalent 2:2 model electrolytes. The calculated activity coefficients agree reasonably well with Monte Carlo simulation results for the primitive model.
