Abstract

A symmetric Poisson-Boltzmann theory is applied to a primitive model electrolyte solution containing 7 different ion species. Only 7 coupled equations need to be solved for the mean electrostatic potential around the ions once the uncharged hard sphere radial distribution function is specified. Comparison is made with the individual activity and osmotic coefficients of a simulation study of a sea water mixture. Good overall agreement is found with the simulation results.
