Isopiestic Measurements on Aqueous Solutions of Heavy Metal Sulfates: MSO4 + H2O (M = Mn, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn). 2. T=373.15 K
The water activities of the systems MSO4 + H2O (M = Mn, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn) are essential data needed for simulating the hydrometallurgical process of these metals. In our previous work (J. Chem. Eng. Data, 2014, 59, 97-102), the experimental data of water activity for these binary systems have been reported at 323.15 K. As one part of this series of work, the experimental data of water activity for these systems are reported at 373.15 K. The reliability of the apparatus at 373.15 K was verified by measuring and comparing the water activities of the two reference systems, CaCl2 + H2O and LiCl + H2O The results showed that the maximal relative deviation of the water activities between the reference systems was 0.054%. The water activities for the concerned five systems were found to be approximately the same at a certain salt molality below 1 M. The water activities of these systems decrease at a certain salt molality more than 1 M in the following sequence: alpha(MnSO4) > a(CuSO4)(similar to a(ZnSO4)) > a(CoSO4)(similar to a(NiSO4)). Furthermore, the experiment data obtained in this work were compared with the model values reported in the literature.
