Abstract

The activity coefficients of NaBr and CaBr/sub 2/ in NaBr-CaBr/sub 2/ aqueous mixtures have been measured at 25/sup 0/C over the ranges of ionic strengths 0.1 to 7.5 m. The measurements were made with a dual electrometer amplifier using Na and Ca ion selective electrodes against a Br ion selective electrode. The data were fitted to Harned's equation of the form log ..gamma../sub i/ = log ..gamma../sub i//sup 0/ - ..cap alpha../sub AB/y/sub B/ - ..beta../sub AB/y/sub B//sup 2/ to compute the trace activity coefficients and were also analyzed by using the Pitzer formation. Deviations from the Pitzer formalism were observed for the experimental activity coefficients in this mixture.
