CONSTANTS OF ELECTROLYTIC DISSOCIATION OF THE LITHIUM, SODIUM AND POTASSIUM SULFATES IN AQUEOUS ISOPROPANOL SOLUTIONS
Abstract
At introduction of isopropyl alcohol in saturated aqueous solutions of sulfates of lithium, sodium and potassium at 25 °C physico-chemical properties of the studied systems Li2SO4-H2O-C3H7OH, Na2SO4-H2O-C3H7OH and K2SO4-H2O-C3H7OH are changed. This reduces the density of solutions and salt content in aqueous isopropanol solutions due to a decrease in solubility of salts. It is shown that the variation of the volume content of alcohol from 0% to 90% results in the decrease of Li2SO4 solubility 1280 times, Na2SO4 – 548 times, K2SO4 – in 278 times. Alcohol additives also affect the degree of electrolytic dissociation of salt in aqueous isopropanol solutions. To study the electrochemical properties of salts we used conductometric method based on the measurement of the molar conductivity of solutions depending on salt concentration. In aqueous solutions, alkali metal sulfates exhibit the properties of strong electrolytes and almost completely dissociate into ions. When the volume content of isopropanol in the solution is more than 30%, alkali metal sulfates begin to show the properties of weak electrolytes, as evidenced by the correlation of the molar conductivity of the diluted solution with the salt concentration under the equation describing the state of weak electrolytes. From the transformations of experimental data in the coordinates of this equation, the values of the electrolytic dissociation constants of the studied salts were determined, which vary (8.30 ± 0.01)·10-5 to (4,35 ± 0,01)·10-8 (mol/l)2 when varying the alcohol content from 30 to 90% volume. It is shown that isopropanol additives reduce the constant (and hence the degree) of electrolytic dissociation of alkali metal sulfates: the higher the alcohol concentration in the solution, the weaker the salt becomes as an electrolyte. The value of the electrolytic dissociation constant depends on the nature of the salt: with an increase in the size of the sulfate cation, the electrolytic dissociation constant decreases.
