Ion selective electrodes (ISEs) are used to measure the single-ion activity coefficients in aqueous solutions of KNO3 and KCl at 298.15 K against a double-junction reference electrode. The EMF responses of ISEs up to 0.01 m are plotted to obtain the slope and intercept values. The obtained slopes and intercepts are used in Nernst equation for higher concentrated solutions for calculation of individual ion activity coefficient. The mean ionic activity coefficients are estimated from single ion activity coefficient, and the obtained results are compared with the literature values.
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.
