the behavior of silver ion in mixed solvents, it is difficult to predict the effect of the change in solvent composition in the resin phase with resin composition on the above activity coefficient ratio. The activity coefficient ratios of the ions in the external solution are likewise known only for aqueous media, and so the effect of this term on the selectivity coefficient cannot be quantitatively predicted. Theoretical considerations, other than those given above, therefore are not feasible.

THERMODYNAMIC DATA FOR THE ZINC-INDIUM SYSTEM OBTAINED FROM THE PHASE DIAGRAM BY W. J. SV~RBELY Department of Chemistry, University of Maryland, College Park, Maryland Received March 1. 1864

Integral heats of mixing and the relative partial molal heat contenta of zinc and indium in zinc-indium alloys a t 700°K. have been determined from solubility data for the system by means of semi-empirical equations proposed by Ifleppa. The relative partial molal heat contents of zinc have been used ‘in turn to calculate the activities and partial molal entropies of zinc in zinc-indium alloys a t 700’K. All calculated data have been compared with data in the literature. The results support Kleppa’s equations as well as can be expected.

Introduction Due t o experimental difficulties, it is frequently impossible t o apply either vapor pressure or electromotive force procedures to the determination of the thermodynamic properties of bimetallic systems. Consequently, attempts have been made to determine such properties through use of other available data, such as solubility data. Recently, Kleppa’ has criticized some of the earlier attempts and he has presented a method which permits the separation of the calculated partial molal free energies along the liquidus into approximate heat and entropy terms. The method is restricted to a simple eutectic phase diagram with a steep liquidus displaced toward one extreme in composition. The comparison of calculated heat data with experimental data made by Kleppa’ does not lead to (1) 0. J. Kleppa, J . Am. Chem. Soc., T4, 8047 (1952)

a satisfactory conclusion concerning the validity of Kleppa’s method because of the lack of sufficient experimental data for the systems considered. The phase diagram for the zinc-indium ~ y s t e m ~ * ~ indicates that this system is subject to the above restrictions. Furthermore, the thermodynamic properties of the zinc-indium system have been determined r e ~ e n t l y . ~There exist, therefore, in this case sufficient thermodynamic data for the checking of Kleppa’s method.

Discussion.-Reference to Fig. 2 shows that neither the mole fraction nor the volume fraction are completely satisexpressions for A H , El and factory for the accurate evaluation of those quantities over the entire concentration range of the zincindium system. However, the agreement is as good as can be expected considering the assumptions which were made in the derivation' of the equations. Moreover, consideration of the curves for all three quantities indicates that the mole fraction expressions lead to better agreement with experiment for the AH and E , calculations than do the volume fraction expressions. However, the opposite appears to be true concerning the results. Reference to Fig. 3 shows that the calculated activities of zinc in the liquid alloys obtained by are in good using the mole fraction values of agreement with the experimental activities. However, the calculated results obtained by using the volume fraction values of El are lower in the more dilute zinc alloys. Reference to Fig. 4 shows that the partial molal entropies of zinc in alloys are reproduced as well as can be expected by use of El values obtained by either method. In conclusion, it can be stated that while the results reported in this paper for the zinc-indium system support the semi-empirical relations proposed by Kleppa for certain restricted systems, nevertheless, one cannot choose definitely between the mole fraction or the volume fraction relations used.
