The trifluoroacetic acid solvent system. Part VI. Density measurements
Keyword(s):
The densities of solutions of several 1:1 trifluoroacetate electrolytes have been measured in 100% trifluoroacetic acid (HOTFA) and apparent molar volumes for their ion pairs have been determined. The density measurements coupled with limiting equivalent conductivities and dissociation constants, calculated by means of the Fuoss–Hsia equation, permit a more precise treatment of the conductivities of solutions at concentrations where the equivalent conductivity minimum occurs. The existence of triple ions in this solvent is not required to account for the conductivity minimum.
