Abstract
The electrical conductivities of aqueous solutions of Na(2)SO(4), H(2)SO(4), and their mixtures have been measured at 373-673 K at 12-28 MPa in dilute solutions for molalities up to 10(-2) mol kg(-1). These conductivities have been fit to the conductance equation of Turq et al.(1) with a consensus mixing rule and mean spherical approximation activity coefficients. Provided the concentration is not too high, all of the data can be fitted by a solution model that includes ion association to form NaSO(4)(-), Na(2)SO(4)(0), HSO(4)(-), H(2)SO(4)(0), and NaHSO(4)(0). The adjustable parameters of this model are the dissociation constants of the SO(4)(-) species and the H(+), SO(4)(-2), and HSO(4)(-) conductances (ion mobilities) at infinite dilution. For the 673 K and 230 kg m(-3) state point with the lowest dielectric constant, epsilon = 3.5, where the Coulomb interactions are the strongest, this model does not fit the experimental data above a solution molality of 0.016. Including the species H(9)(SO(4))(5)(-) gave satisfactory fits to the conductance data at the higher concentrations.
