Electrical conductances of tetraethylammonium bromide and tetrapropylammonium bromide in 2-ethoxyethanol (1) plus water (2) mixtures at (308.15, 313.15, 318.15, and 323.15) K
The electrical conductances of the solutions of tetraethylammonium. bromide (Et4NBr) and tetrapropylammonium bromide (Pr4NBr) in 2-ethoxyethanol (1) + water (2) mixed solvent media containing 0.25, 50, and 0.75 mass fractions of 2-ethoxyethanol (w(1)) have been reported at (308.15, 313.15, 318.15, and 323.15) K. The conductance data have been analyzed by the 1978 Fuoss conductance-concentration equation in terms of the limiting molar conductance (Lambda(0)), the association constant (K-A), and the association diameter (R). These two electrolytes are found to exist essentially as free ions in the solvent mixtures with w(1) = 0.25 and 50 over the entire temperature range; however, slight ionic association was observed in the mixed solvent medium richest in 2-ethoxyethanol. The electrostatic ion-solvent interaction is found to be very weak for the tetraalkylammonium ions in the aqueous 2-ethoxyethanol mixtures investigated.
