A thermochemical study of the solvation of some sodium and potassium halides in mixed solvents

Enthalpies and Entropies of Transfer of Electrolytes and Ions from Water to Mixed Aqueous Organic Solvents

“…Almost all of the other published data have been accepted. An exception is the (graphical) data of Krestov and Klopov, which are more positive, by up to 11 kJ/mol, than all other studies and were therefore rejected. For LiCl, the earlier results reported by Feakins et al, which are in excellent agreement with those of Slansky, have been preferred over the later values from Feakins' group …”

“…This group made extensive measurements with galvanic cells in aqueous-dioxane solutions in the years 1936-1939; their findings are summarized in the paper by Harned et al 3 The earliest useful calorimetric data, published at about the same time, appear to be those of Moss and Wolfenden 4 and of Slansky, 5 both reporting enthalpies of solution of salts in MeOH/H 2 O mixtures. A hiatus in activity in this area then occurred, lasting until the almost simultaneous appearance of the studies by Feakins 6 and Krestov 7 and their respective co-workers. The frequency of publications reporting quantitative studies of enthalpies or entropies of transfer of electrolytes or ions from water to aqueous-organic mixtures is presented in Figure 1, derived from literature abstracted up to the end of the year 2000.…”
