CHAPTER 07: ACTIVITY &
THE SYSTEMATIC TREATMENT OF QUILIBRIUM
ACTIVITY
- Activity Coefficients are related to the hydrated radius.y y- The rate at which an ion diffuses through solution or migrates in an electric field
depends on the hydrated radius, not on the size of the bare ion.

Ionic Atmosphere Model
- An ionic atmosphere surrounds ions in solution.- The greater the ionic strength of a solution, the higher the charge in the ionic
hatmosphere. - Each ion-plus-atmosphere contains less net charge and there is less attraction
between any particular cation and anion.

What do we mean by “ Ionic Strength ” ?
Ionic Strength : a measure of the total concentration of ions in solution.() (moles/L) The more highly charged an ion, the more it is counted.

Ks : salting out coefficient ( 0.01 ~ 0.15)
* If < 0.1 M, then 1. The activity of a neutral molecule is equal to itsconcentration if < 0.1
* Salting out effect : the effect of decreasing the solubility of molecule species (O2(aq)) by increasing salt concentrationspecies (O2(aq)) by increasing salt concentration
Example) {O2(aq)} = O2[O2(aq)] = KHPO2 = const.
At distilled water, O2 = 1.0At distilled water, O2 1.0But at salty water, [O2(aq)] decreases, and O2 increases to more that 1.0

C = [HA] + [A-]CT,A = [HA] + [A ]
CT,A : sum of the moles of HA and MA added per liter of solution
* Activity coefficients do not appear in the mass balance* It really refers to conservation of atoms, not to mass

Systematic Treatment of Equilibrium
General Prescription
S 1 i ll h i h i l iStep 1 : Write all the pertinent chemical equations.* Because of not knowing all the chemical reactions,
we undoubtedly oversimplify many equilibrium problemswe undoubtedly oversimplify many equilibrium problems.
Step 2 : Write all the charge balanceW i h b lWrite the mass balance
Step 3 : Write the equilibrium constant for each chemical reaction.- This is one step in which activity coefficients appear.- Although it is proper to write all equilibrium constants in terms of
activities, the algebraic complexity of manipulating the activity coefficients often obscures the chemistry of a problemcoefficients often obscures the chemistry of a problem

* To solve the problems is no simple matter for these 5 equations.- If we fix the pH, it becomes simpler.
In this case we don’t use charge balance equations (v) because we don’t knowIn this case, we don t use charge balance equations (v) because we don t know charge balance exactly due to the addition of chemicals to get, for example, pH=3.
