Abstract

Ion-transfer parameters of aqueous hydrochloric acid over a wide molality range have been re-investigated taking the concurrent solventtransfer into due account. In this context, the transference numbers for the hydrogen ion τH and for water τw have been determined from 10−2 to 15 mol-kg−1, together with the corresponding infinite-dilution values τ oH and τ ow , by processing a set of nearly a hundred emf measurements (some twenty of them new for this work) on HCl concentration cells with transference with both cation-reversible and anion-reversible electrode pairs.
