The molar conductivities of Et4NBr, n-Pr4NBr, n-Bu4NBr, and n-Bu4NBPh4 have been measured in N,N-dimethylformamide–methyl ethyl ketone (DMF–MEK) mixtures (34.5≥D≥20.10) over the maximum concentration range (2×D3×10−7 mol dm−3) along with the densities and viscosities of the solvent mixtures at 25 °C. The conductance data have been analyzed by using the Fuoss-1978 (F78) conductance equation and the results compared with those obtained from the Justice (J) and the Fuoss-Onsager-Skinner (FOS) equations. The molar conductivities at infinite dilution (Λ0), the thermodynamic association constant (KA) and the distance or the ion-size parameter (R or a°) are evaluated from these data. A better fit of the parameters was provided by the F78 equation which yielded KA and R values. The Λ0 and the KA values are found to increase with decrease in the dielectric constant of the medium and in a given solvent mixture they follow the order Et4NBr>n-Pr4NBr>n-Bu4NBr>n-Bu4NBPh4.
AIJAZ AHMAD ANSARI and M. R. ISLAM. Can. J. Chem. 66, 1223Chem. 66, (1988. The molar conductivities of Pr4NBr, Bu4NBr, Pr4NI, and Bu4NI have been measured in tert-butanol-water (t-BuOH-H20) mixtures (61.30 2 D 2 16.50) over the maximum concentration range (2 X D~ X mo1 dm-3) along with the densities and viscosities of the solvent mixtures at 25°C. The conductance data have been analysed by using the Fuoss-1978 (F78) conductance equation and the results compared with the values obtained from the Justice (J), Pitt's (P), and Fuoss-Onsager-Skinner (FOS) equations. Molar conductivities at infinite dilution (AO), the thermodynamic ion association constants (KA) and the distance or ion-size parameters (RO or a' ) are evaluated from these data. The F78 equation fitted the data better and yielded KA and R values which are in accord with the ion-association theories. The interpretation of these parameters is discussed to provide some insight on the magnitude of the ionic association and the ion-solvent interaction.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
