The entire phase diagrams of the ternary systems NaCl + NH4Cl + H2O, KCl + NH4Cl + H2O, NaCl +
AlCl3 + H2O, and KCl + AlCl3 + H2O, as well as the solubilities of sodium and potassium chlorides in
aqueous solutions of lithium chloride, were determined at T = (298 to 333) K. Additionally, the equilibrium
concentrations of pure ammonium chloride, lithium chloride monohydrate salt, and aluminum chloride-6-hydrate were also measured over the same range of temperatures. The measured data were correlated
as a function of temperature and content of the secondary electrolyte in the solvent by a least-squares
method. The proposed empirical equations of fit allow fair agreement between calculated and experimental
data, the invariant composition mixtures included, with standard deviations of fit to molality ranging
from ±(0.02 to 0.05) mol·kg-1. In concentrated solutions of lithium and aluminum chlorides, the
equilibrium concentrations of NaCl and KCl become very small. Therefore, because of the form of the
optimization criterion chosen for the fit, the relative deviations between the two sets of data increase
directly with the content of the secondary electrolyte.
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.
