Ionic Strength - Non-ideal Solutions

Non-ideal Solutions

Because in non-ideal solutions volumes are no longer strictly additive it is often preferable to work with molality b (mol/kg{H2O}) rather than molarity c (mol/L). In that case, ionic strength is defined as:

in which

i = individual element identification number
z = charge of element

Famous quotes containing the word solutions:

    Those great ideas which come to you in your sleep just before you awake in morning, those solutions to the world’s problems which, in the light of day, turn out to be duds of the puniest order, couldn’t they be put to some use, after all?
    Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
