Abstract

A theoretical relationship postulated between the distribution coefficient of a monovalent element and the parameters upon which it depends (acid concentration in solution, dissociation constants of the acid and the salt, selectivity coefficient of exchanged ions) has been verified for the dissociation of silver perchlorate in water—acetic acid—perchloric acid mixtures. The dissociation constants found have been compared with the experimental values obtained by potentiometric measurements. The relationship established has been employed for the determination of nitric acid dissociation constants in water—acetic acid-nitric acid mixtures containing less than 25 % by weight of water. From the results the p K value for nitric acid in pure acetic acid has been evaluated by extrapolation. The theoretical relationship might be used to determine an acid dissociation constant when the dissociation constant of a salt is known and vice versa.
