“…(18,19) We chose ZnSO 4 (aq) rather than CdSO 4 (aq) for a detailed examination, since it is less hazardous to work with. There are several determinations of the e.m.f.s of cell (V-ii) at T = 298.15 K. (18)(19)(20)(21)(22) The extensive sets of e.m.f.s of Bray (20) and of Rasaiah (18,19) are quite consistent with each other, but the low molality results of Cowperthwaite and La Mer (21) are somewhat discrepant, as previously noted by Rasaiah. (18,19) A similar comparison by us of the osmotic coefficients of ZnSO 4 (aq) derived from direct vapor pressure (23) and isopiestic measurements (24)(25)(26)(27)(28) indicates significant discrepancies between some of these studies.…”
