Specific Heats of Aqueous Solutions of NaCl, NaBr, and KCl. Comparisons with Related Thermal Properties.

Abstract

Precision measurements of specific heat capacities and heats of dilution have been the subject of many investigations in this laboratory; and many improvements in experimental methods were developed (see reference 1 for a summary) in an attempt to get sufficient accuracy so as to be able to verify the Debye-Huckel theory. In this paper, we present heat capacity results obtained by the authors on binary aqueous solutions of NaCl, KCl, and NaBr. The values for NaBr fill a gap in the literature. The values for the other two salts significantly extend the concentration-temperature ranges, and in some areas improve on the precision of the available values, or confirm precise values already in the literature. A theoretical interpretation of the results is not attempted. (Author)
