In this article, research on the
thermodynamic mean activity coefficients
for the ternary system (NaCl–SrCl2–H2O) has been carried out. A cell without a liquid junction
can be expressed as sodium–ISE|sodium chloride (m
A), strontium chloride (m
B)|chlorine–ISE. It is used to determine the activity coefficients
in these mixtures at 278.15 K by the cell potential method. Then,
the total ionic strengths are I = 0.0100–3.0000
mol·kg–1 with different y
b (ionic strength fraction) = (0.0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, and 0.8).
The relationship diagrams between γ±NaCl (mean
activity coefficients of NaCl) and y
b (ionic
strength fraction) were plotted. Mixed interaction parameters θNa,Sr and ψNa,Sr,Cl of this system in Pitzer
equations at 278.15 K were fitted by using the determined activity
coefficients and multiple regression method. In addition, those obtained
parameters were also used to calculate γ±SrCl2
(mean activity coefficients of SrCl2) by
the Pitzer equations. Accordingly, the osmotic coefficients, water
activity, and excess Gibbs free energy in the mixtures were studied
in detail.
