Conductance Studies of Tetrabutylammonium Bromide, Sodium Bromide, and Sodium Tetraphenylborate in 2‑Butoxyethanol (1) + Water (2) Mixtures at (298.15, 303.15, 308.15, and 313.15) K Binod Sharma, Ramesh Sharma, and Chanchal Das* Department of Chemistry, Sikkim Government College, Tadong, Gangtok, East Sikkim 737 102, India ABSTRACT: Electrical conductances of solutions of tetrabutylammonium bromide (Bu4NBr), sodium bromide (NaBr), and sodium tetraphenylborate (NaBPh4) in 2-butoxyethanol (1) + water (2) mixture with 0.017, 0.037, 0.061, 0.092, and 0.132 mole fraction of 2-butoxyethanol have been reported at (298.15, 303.15, 308.15, and 313.15) K. The experimental values of electrical conductances are analyzed using the 1978 Fuoss conductance− concentration equation to obtain the values of limiting molar conductance (Λ0), ionic association constant (KA), and the association diameter (R). The values of KA and R obtained for these three salts, namely, tetrabutylammonium bromide, sodium bromide, and sodium tetraphenylborate, suggests a weak electrostatic ion−solvent interaction and that they exist as free ions in all the solvent compositions and the temperature range covered in this study. The Walden products of these salts deviate from ideal behavior with varying temperature and solvent composition. conductance studies24,25 in 2-butoxyethanol and its aqueous mixtures, are insufficient. Studies on the fundamental physicochemical properties like density and dielectric constant along with isentropic compressibilities and heat capacities have been reported for 2-butoxyethanol.1,26−28 Dielectric constants and density measurements on the 2-butoxyethanol−water mixtures have been performed at 298.15 K by Douheret and Pal.28 Later Reddy et al.29 reported densities, viscosities, and isentropic compressibilities for this mixed solvent media at 308.15 K. Very recently, Chiou et al.30 reported densities, viscosities, and refractive indexes of 2-butoxyethanol−water mixtures at various temperatures. Excess apparent molal heat capacities and volumes of 2-alkoxyethanol in the water-rich region at different temperatures have been reported by Roux et al.27 Dielectric spectroscopy of 2-butoxyethanol−water mixtures in the complete composition range have been measured by Kaatze et al.31 and their findings point at a substantial effect of the hydrogen bonding of the ether oxygen atoms in the 2-butoxyethanol−water system. The present paper reports the equivalent conductivities of tetrabutylammonium bromide (Bu4NBr), sodium bromide (NaBr), and sodium tetraphenylborate (NaBPh4) in 2-butoxyethanol (1) + water (2) mixtures containing 0.017, 0.037, 0.061, 0.092, and 0.132 mole fraction of 2-butoxyethanol at (298.15, 303.15, 308.15, and 313.15) K to obtain accurate single-ion conductivities at the temperatures mentioned above.

1. INTRODUCTION A proper understanding of ion−solvent interactions would form the basis of quantitatively explaining the influence of the solvent and the extent of interactions of ions in solvents, thus paving the way for the real understanding of the different phenomena associated with solution chemistry. 2-Butoxyethanol (BE) belongs to a class of compounds commercially known as cellosolves. It is, in fact, the monobutyl ether of ethylene glycol. Hence, it is very likely that its physicochemical properties are between dipolar aprotic and protic solvents. It is well-known that, at low BE content in BE-water mixtures, BE exists as a molecular dispersion in water, but at higher BE content, micelle-like aggregation is occurs due to a radical change in the BE-water mixture structure.1−6 Hence, it would be interesting to study the behavior of electrolytes in such an uncharacteristic solvent medium. In spite of the extensive use of cellosolves as solvents and solubilizing agents in many commercial industries,7,8 the studies on the electrical properties of electrolytes in these media and their mixtures with water have not stimulated much interest so far. However, knowledge of the electrical properties of different electrolytes in these solvents would be helpful in indicating the potential usefulness of cellosolves in various technologies like high-energy nonaqueous batteries, ion exchangers, and so forth. The situation is somewhat better with the first and second homologue of this class of solvents, namely, 2-methoxyethanol and 2-ethoxyethanol. Extensive studies on the transport properties of various electrolytes in these two homologues both in pure as well as in its binary mixtures with water have already been reported.9−23 Unfortunately, such investigations, particularly © XXXX American Chemical Society

From the experimentally obtained concentration−conductance data three very important parameters, namely, equivalent conductance of an electrolyte at infinite dilution (Λ0), ionic association constant (KA), and the association diameter (R), as a function of concentration can be obtained by the use of appropriate equations. Several models and their mathematical formulations are available, and their choice for the calculations of Λ0, KA, and R depends on the precision desired and their appropriateness.32,33 We have used the Fuoss 78 conductance−concentration equation34,35 for our analysis as this equation is based on a more realistic model as compared to the others.

2. EXPERIMENTAL SECTION 2.1. Chemicals. 2-Butoxyethanol (purchased from G. R. E. Merck with a mass fraction purity >0.995) was first dried with potassium carbonate, and the dry BE was distilled twice just prior to use in a Borosil distillation set. The measured density (ρ0) and the coefficient of viscosity (η0) of the purified BE were found to be 0.89616 g·cm−3 and 2.7820 mPa·s, respectively, at 298.15 K. A comparison of these values with the literature values26,36 shows a good agreement with the published values. The mixed solvents containing 0.017, 0.037, 0.061, 0.092, and 0.132 mole fraction of 2-butoxyethanol by weight were prepared accurately by mixing 2-butoxyethanol with triple-distilled water and their densities and viscosities measured at (298.15, 303.15, 308.15, and 313.15) K, which are given in Table 1. These density values along with the density and relative permittivity values of the pure solvents at the experimental temperatures (obtained from the literature) have been used to calculate the relative permittivities of the mixed solvents with the help of the equations as described in the literature37 and are also given in Table 1. The salts used were obtained from Fluka and were of puriss grade (99.9 % pure). Tetrabutylammonium bromide (Bu4NBr) was recrystallized from acetone and dried in vacuo at 333.15 K for 48 h prior to use. Sodium bromide (NaBr) was dried in vacuo for 72 h at room temperature before use. Sodium tetraphenylborate (NaBPh4) was purified by recrystallization thrice from acetone and then dried in vacuo for 72 h at 353.15 K. 2.2. Experimental Process. The conductivity meter used for the measurements of specific conductance was a Pye-Unicam PW 9509 conductivity meter operating at a frequency of 2000 Hz using a dip-type cell having a cell constant of 1.15 cm−1 and an uncertainty of 0.01 %. The calibration of the cell was done using 0.01N aqueous potassium chloride solutions by the method suggested by Lind et al.39 The water bath, where all measurements were made, was maintained within ± 0.005 K of the desired experimental temperature. The experimental procedures followed for all of the measurements have been described earlier.40−42 For the measurement of conductance molal solutions were prepared. The densities of these molal solutions were measured with an Ostwald-Sprengel type pycnometer of about 25 mL capacity. With the help of the density values, the strength of the solutions was converted from molarity to molality. To ensure the precision of the results, the experiments were repeated with at least five sets of independently prepared solutions, and the results were averaged. The specific conductance of the solvents at all of the experimental temperatures were also measured and subtracted from those of the salt solutions. A suspended level Ubbelohde-type viscometer was used to measure the kinematic viscosities of the solvents. All solutions were prepared with utmost care in a dehumidified room.

3. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION The experimental equivalent conductances (Λ) of electrolyte solutions as functions of molal concentration (m) in 2-butoxyethanol (1) + water (2) mixtures with mole fractions of 0.017, 0.037, 0.061, 0.092, and 0.132 of 2-butoxyethanol at (298.15, 303.15, 308.15, and 313.15) K are shown in Table 2. The 1978 Fuoss conductance concentration equation34,35 has been used to analyze the conductance data. In this treatment, for a given set of molar concentration-equivalent conductance values, (cj, Λj; j = 1, ..., n), the three parameters, namely, the limiting molar conductivity (Λ0), association constant (KA), and the association diameter (R) appearing in the expression for Λ(c, Λ0, KA, R), are related by the following equations:

To ensure convergence, the values of Λ0 and R are computed which minimize the standard deviation, σ,

σ = [∑ [Λj(calcd) − Λj(obsd)]2 /(n − 2)]1/2 (5)

(7)

When σ(%) is plotted against R, the corresponding value of R in the minima corresponds to the best fit R value. In our investigation however, a coarse scan using R values from 4 to 20 yielded very shallow minima in the σ(%) vs R curves for all the three salts investigated. In such cases, it is a standard practice to preselect R as the distance between the two centers of the solvent separated ion-pair. Mathematically, this R value is given by R = a + d, where a is the sum of the ionic crystallographic radii of the ions and d is given by35

where RX is the relaxation field effect, EL is the electrophoretic countercurrent, γ is the fraction of unpaired ions, α is the fraction of contact-pairs, KA is the overall pairing constant evaluated from the association constant of contact-pairs, KS, of solvent-separated pairs, KR, ε is the relative permittivity of the solvent, e is the electronic charge, kB is the Boltzmann constant, k−1 is the radius of the ion atmosphere, c is the molar concentration of the solution, f is the activity coefficient, T is the temperature in absolute scale, and β is twice the Bjerrum distance. An iterative computer program to evaluate the three parameters Λ0, KA, and R which was suggested by Fuoss was used for computations. The input data set for the program is (cj, Λj; j = 1, ..., n), n, ε, η, T, M1, and M2 and an initial value of Λ0. The initial value of Λ0 can be obtained either by Walden’s rule or extrapolation of Kohlrausch’s plot, but we have obtained it from Shedlovsky extrapolation43 of the conductance data. The program also contains an instruction to cover a given range of R values.

where M and ρ0 are the mole fraction average molecular weight and the density of the mixed solvent, respectively. The values of Λ0, KA, and R computed as described above are contained in Table 3.

For a proper understanding of the behavior of the individual ions making up the salts, the limiting molar electrolyte conductances (Λ0) values obtained above needs to be split-up and attributed to the constituent ions of the electrolyte. This can be easily achieved by the “reference electrolyte method” using tetrabutylammonium tetraphenylborate (Bu4NBPh4) as the “reference electrolyte”.44,45 In this method, the Λ0 values of Bu4NBPh4 can be divided into the ionic components using eqs 9 to 12.46 Λ0(Bu4NBPh4) = λ 0(Bu4N+) + λ 0(Ph4B−) r(Ph4B−) 5.35 = + = 0 − r(Bu4N ) 5.00 λ (Ph4B )

(11)

The ionic radii (r) values of the two ions, Bu4N+ and Ph4B−, have been taken from the literature.47,48 The value of Λ0 (Bu4NBPh4) can easily be calculated using Kohlrausch law of the independent migration of ions. Using the Λ0 values of Bu4NBr, NaBr, and NaBPh4 from Table 3, the Λ0 value of Bu4NBPh4 can easily be obtained through a proper combination of the equivalent conductances through eq 12. Λ0(Bu4NBPh4) = Λ0(Bu4NBr) + Λ0(NaBPh4) − Λ0(NaBr)

λ 0(Bu4N+)

The limiting ion conductances of the individual ions calculated using eqs 9 to 12 is given in Table 4.

This means that there is no significant association of the ions,49 and the three electrolytes studied exist as free ions in the entire range of 2-butoxyethanol (1) + water (2) mixed solvent media and the temperature range covered in this investigation. This conclusion is on expected lines as the relatively high values of the relative permittivity of the solvent mixtures (33.43 ≤ ε ≥ 71.56) provides a conducive environment for the dissociation of electrolytes. The variation of the Walden products as function of the solvent composition at (298.15, 303.15, 308.15, and 313.15) K is shown in Figure 2. The plot shows deviation from ideality which can be attributed to charged ion−solvent interactions which may be due to changing solvodynamic radii of the ions at different solvent compositions. The limiting ionic equivalent conductances (λ0) decreases in the order λ0Br− > λ0Na+ > λ0Bu4N+ > λ0Ph4B−, and the trend remains the same for all of the temperatures and the solvent composition studied. This order also implies that the sizes of these ions in solutions follow the reverse trend, that is, Br− < Na+ < Bu4N+ < Ph4B−. Since at a fixed solvent composition the influence of viscosity and hydrogen bonding of the solution has little effect on the conductivity, this order can be rationalized as resulting from increased solvation due to higher surface charge densities for the smaller ions. It is also observed that, as the amount of 2-butoxyethanol in the solvent medium increases, the limiting ionic equivalent conductances of all of the ions decreases which is expected as the relative permittivity of the medium is decreasing. The trend remains the same for all of the four temperatures studied.

Although the limiting equivalent conductances of the electrolytes and the single-ions increases with temperature, the effect is more pronounced on the smaller ions, Br− and Na+, than on the larger ions Bu4N+ and Ph4B− in the 2-butoxyethanol−water mixed solvent.

4. CONCLUSION In conclusion, the solution of these three salts, namely, tetrabutylammonium bromide, sodium bromide, and sodium tetraphenlyborate, in 2-butoxyethanol−water mixed solvent contain the constituent ions in the free form in the entire temperature range investigated which is evident from the low values of the association constants. The electrostatic ion−solvent interaction is found to be weak in the aqueous 2-butoxyethanol mixtures investigated. The Walden products of these salts deviate from ideality over the entire range of temperature and solvent composition studied. With increase in temperature, an appreciable increase in the limiting equivalent conductances of the electrolytes and also the single-ion conductivity values is observed, but the same decreased with an increasing amount of 2-butoxyethanol in the mixed solvent media in the temperature range studied.
