Densities of  H+ - NH4+ - Na+ - SO42− - NO3 - Cl - H2O

Densities and partial molar volumes are needed to calculate the size of aqueous aerosols, and the Kelvin effect on equilibrium vapour pressures above very small droplets. On this page we make available models that predict the volume properties of pure aqueous solutions and liquid mixtures (1, 2). Their characteristics are as follows:

1.  Select the system of interest.

Principal models:

H+ - NH4+ - Na+ - SO42 - NO3 - Cl - H2O,   0 – 100 wt% solute,   150 – 323.15 K.

H+ - NH4+ - HSO4 - SO42 - H2O,   0 – 6 mol kg1,   298.15 K.

Other solutions (for 0 – 100 wt% solute, and 298.15 K):

  NH4HSO4 – H2O        NaHSO4 – H2O        NaOH – H2O        NH3 – H2O

2.  Fill in the form.
