Conductance Data For Commonly Used Chemicals

CONDUCTANCE DATA FOR COMMONLY USED CHEMICALS From an analytical point of view, little can be done with a conductance reading, however accurate it may be, unless it can be related to chemical concentration via a table or graph. Much data has been generated in the past 100 years in this area, but a comprehensive gathering of the information in a form useful to industry has been lacking1. It is hoped that the following will provide a ready and reasonably accurate reference of conductance values for the majority of electrolytes encountered in industrial situations. The information is presented in graphical form to permit rapid evaluation of response patterns and to eliminate the time consuming and often impractical (because of non-linearity) extrapolation required in tables with widely separated concentrations. This method of presentation sacrifices the precision gained by listing actual values, but the accuracy retained is more than sufficient for the great majority of industrial uses. The intent has been to provide a useful working tool more so than a scientific reference. Most of the data presented is the result of extremely careful and accurate laboratory work conducted by various researchers over the years. It is recognized that older sources of information, notably the extensive International Critical Tables, have been found to be slightly inaccurate due to changes in the definition of basic units in recent times as well as to erroneous alignment procedures and measurement techniques. However, with the previously stated area of application in mind, these minor errors are of little significance and may safely be ignored. A few curves are based on more casual “field condition” observations, and others are derived from data with a low degree of resolution in the original reference. Both will be marked with a single asterisk (*) in the index that follows.

All conductance values have been referenced to a single temperature of 25°C for convenience (isothermal plots are given for selected chemicals of major importance). Much of the original data was presented at this temperature, and all sources fell in the range of 15° to 25°C. Where possible, the temperature correction factor was calculated from isothermal equivalent conductances listed in the International Critical Tables. An average was taken over as wide a range as possible from .5N to 5N and 0-25°C. When such a calculation was not possible, the widely accepted “average” of 2%/°C was used. Temperature factors, of course, will vary in a nonlinear manner with respect to both temperature and concentration for many chemicals, but the small size of the adjustments render this of little importance. As the majority of corrections involved differentials of only 5° or 7°C, errors introduced from this source will be small. With this in mind, the final effect of temperature correction error deserves further comment. The relative conductance values at various concentrations would not be noticeably affected. The error could be approximately but correctly described as relating to the reference temperature rather than conductance. Too much or too little correction simply means that the curve shown is really that seen at 24° or 26° rather than the indicated 25°. It is not anticipated that errors will exceed the +1° examples given in any except the most unusual cases. No guarantees of accuracy can be given, but most of the data should easily fall within 5% of the correct absolute value. The choice of curve shape through data points will be a factor in some cases, and it is for this reason that the points were clearly indicated. (Some were omitted in the lower portions of the scale for the sake of clarity.)

An earlier and excellent series of curves was published for this purpose by Industrial Instruments Inc. It provided very detailed data for a half-dozen or so commonly used chemicals, and has been included in the list of reference sources.

SUMMARY OF FORMULAE, CONVERSION DATA AND MISCELLANEOUS INFORMATION

CT = CR [1 + tc (T – TR)] for the general case.

and boiling, and that a change of 5°C is matched by a change of 9°F. Thus, 35°C is seven “increments” above freezing. Multiply the seven by the Fahrenheit “increments” of 9 to obtain a Fahrenheit reading that is 63 degrees above freezing, or 95°F.

CT = CR [1 + tc (T – 25)] for 25°C reference.

1.

To obtain the conductance at temperatures other than reference when the temperature coefficient is known:

Concentration conversions: Multiply the original concentration value by the conversion factor shown.

T = temperature of interest

TR = reference temperature

tc = temperature coefficient

CT = conductivity at temperature of interest

6.

CR = conductivity at reference

C25 = conductivity at 25°C

Resistance(ohms) = _______________________ Cell Constant x 106 µmhos of solution at 25°C

2.

To obtain the conductance at 25°C when conductance values at two other temperatures are known:

7.

To obtain the temperature coefficent, referenced to 25°C, when the conductance at any two temperatures is known:

tc = (CT1 – CT2)/[CT2 (T1 – 25) – CT1(T2 – 25)] 4.

Centigrade - Fahrenheit conversion: °C = 5/9(°F – 32) °F = 9/5(°C) + 32

A rule-of-thumb method for making the conversion is to recall the easily remembered values at freezing FROM

For a 1.0 cell constant: Conductance, µmhos 1 10 100 1,000 10,000 100,000 1,000,000

C25 = [CT2(T1 – 25) – CT1 (T2 – 25)]/(T1 – T2) 3.

Resistance values to simulate contacting (electrode) sensor:

Resistance, ohms 1,000,000 100,000 10,000 1,000 100 10 1

Here is an easy way to remember it — there are always a total of six zeros in the conductance/ resistance combination for the even decade values shown. So, 100 umhos, having two, will require a resistance with four, which is 10,000 ohms.

CONDUCTANCE IN DILUTE AQUEOUS SOLUTIONS (Data obtained from Handbook of Electrochemical, Constants, Parsons; Academic Press/Butterworths, 1959) Conductance values at lower concentrations can be approximately determined by use of the following formula:

How much would density correction affect the reading? The relative density at 10,000 ppm is 1.007 (at 20 C).

_ 1000 C Ao (1-a ✓C + bC ) Specific Conductance at 25°C ~

C = 10,000 (1.007)/(1000 x 169 89) =

—

Ao, a and b are obtained from the tables that follow.

.05927 Corrected for density

Parts Per million concentration _ ——————————————— C = Normality ~ 1000 X Equivalent weight

Specific conductance _ 1000 (.05927) (133.3) [(1-.68 ✓——— ~ .05927 + .35(.05886)] _ 6,757 mhos ~

The equivalent weight may be obtained from the tables also. The formula is useful for values of C between 0.0001 and 0.1 only. No allowance was made for solution density as it will be near that of pure water at lower concentrations. However, if it is known and greater accuracy is desired, simply multiply the value already calculated for C times the density to obtain a more precise answer. If normality is known, rather than ppm or wt. %, use it directly for C. Example 1: What is the specific conductance of a 10,000 ppm solution of silver nitrate at 25°C? _ 10,000/ C~ (1000 x 169.89) = .05886 Specific Conductance _ 1000 (.05886) (133.3) [(1-.68 ✓——— ~ .05886 + .35(.05886)] _ 6,713 mhos/cm ~

24

The error due to no density correction was less than 1%. Example 2: What is the specific conductance of a 0.01 N solution of KCI at 25°C? _ Specific Conductance~ ——— 1000 (.01) (149.8) [1-.63 ✓.01 + .64 (0.1)] _ 1,413 umhos/cm ~ Because C was given as normality, no density correction is necessary. Referring to the table of conductance values for standard KCI solutions, the measured value at 0.01N is 1411 umhos/cm. The calculated value of 1413 is, thus, in error by less than two-tenths of one percent. Not all calculations will be this close, but this approximation will be more than adequate for most industrial applications.

– _ 1000 CAo (1-a ✓C + bC) where .0001 C .1 Specific Conductance (25°C) ~ C = Normality = ppm concentration/(1000 x equivalent weight) (Multiply ppm x density for greater accuracy.)
