ABSTRACT: Densities (ρ) and isobaric volumetric heat capacities (σp) of carefully purified aqueous solutions of potassium hydroxide have been measured at concentrations up to 6 mol·kg−1 at a pressure of 10 MPa over the temperature range 323 ≤ T/K ≤ 573 using a vibrating-tube densimeter and a Tian−Calvet differential calorimeter, respectively. Apparent molar volumes (Vϕ) and isobaric heat capacities (Cpϕ) calculated from these data were fitted with modified Redlich−Meyer type equations to derive the corresponding standard molar volumes and heat capacities at infinite dilution. Exact comparisons with literature data were not possible because of pressure differences but the present values, which greatly extend the database for KOH(aq) in terms of precision, temperature and concentration, are broadly compatible with most of the earlier results. Comparison of the present values of Vϕ and Cpϕ for KOH(aq) with corresponding data for solutions of the other alkali metal hydroxides indicated that all of these systems show similar behavior except for LiOH(aq), probably because of greater ion pairing in the latter. The present results for KOH(aq) were combined with reliable literature data for HCl(aq) and KCl(aq) to estimate the standard molar volume and heat capacity changes for the ionization of water up to 573 K.



INTRODUCTION Aqueous solutions of potassium hydroxide at high temperatures and pressures play an important role in many chemical and geochemical situations. The latter include, for example, the dissolution of quartz1 and aluminum−containing minerals like corundum,2−6 kaolinite,7 and smectite7−9 at elevated temperatures and pressures. Such processes are important because of their implications for the structural stability of soils and clays.10−12 Various computational thermodynamic packages require data for KOH(aq) in order to model hydrothermal solutions and to calculate chemical equilibria and mass transfers in geochemical processes.13,14 Beside their geochemical significance, reliable thermodynamic data for KOH(aq) are also of considerable industrial importance. Applications include the use of KOH as an electrolyte in alkaline batteries15,16 and fuel cells,17−20 as a homogeneous catalyst in the production of biodiesel,21−24 and as a precursor for the production of fertilizers25,26 and soft soaps.27,28 Potassium hydroxide solutions are also used for etching semiconductor substrates,29−31 as an additive to petroleum drilling fluids,32,33 and for the conversion of oil sludge into high−surface area adsorbents.34−36 From a purely scientific point of view, the physicochemical properties of KOH(aq) are of interest for understanding specific ion interactions in solution, especially by comparison with NaOH(aq) and the solutions of the other alkali metal hydroxides. © 2017 American Chemical Society

In view of the widespread applications of KOH(aq) it is unsurprising that numerous studies of their densities and heat capacities have been reported in the literature. The available sources are summarized in Table 1. As is commonly the situation for electrolyte solutions, there have been many more investigations of densities, over much wider ranges of temperature and concentration, than of heat capacities. Accordingly, this paper presents a detailed study of the densities and isobaric heat capacities of the aqueous solutions of KOH at concentrations up to 6 mol·kg−1 over the temperature range 323 ≤ T/K ≤ 573 at a pressure of 10 MPa. These results represent a significant expansion of the thermodynamic database for these important solutions (cf. Table 1).



EXPERIMENTAL SECTION Materials and Sample Preparation. Stock solutions of potassium hydroxide (∼8.8 mol/kg H2O) were prepared as required using KOH pellets (AR grade, Merck, Australia) and ultrapure water (Ibis Technology, Mt Hawthorn, Australia). To reduce the carbonate content, present even in analytical grade KOH, these stock solutions were treated according to the procedure of Sipos et al.49 and then filtered (0.45 μm, Supor Special Issue: Memorial Issue in Honor of Ken Marsh Received: February 20, 2017 Accepted: May 8, 2017 Published: May 16, 2017 2959

densimeter. Once a steady value of the sample period (τ) was achieved (typically within 12 min) the water flow was rerouted to the densimeter to record a “final” baseline (τ″w). Meanwhile the sample loop was emptied, rinsed, and then filled with a fresh solution. Most sample measurements were performed in duplicate, mostly using independent fillings of the sample loop. Solution densities, ρ, were calculated from

450, Pall, Port Washington, NY, USA) under high-purity nitrogen (Table 2). Concentrations of KOH and carbonate were determined to ±0.05% by titration with standard hydrochloric acid (NIST traceable) using phenolphthalein and methyl orange as indicators. Carbonate levels were also confirmed by Raman spectroscopy.50 As small amounts of carbonate (0.4% of the total alkalinity) were still detectable in the stock solutions so prepared, such solutions were further treated with stoichiometric amounts of Ba(OH)2(aq), stirred overnight, allowed to settle for 48 h then refiltered. After this treatment, carbonate in the stock solution was ρw ≫ ρN and the sample density typically lies well outside the calibrating range). Accordingly, K values at T ≤ 523.15 K were determined using water and four independently prepared NaCl(aq) solutions of concentrations 3 ≤ m/mol·kg−1 ≤ 6. The densities of the latter were calculated using the Pitzer model of Archer.54 The calibration constants so obtained were compared with those determined using (water and) either N2(g) or a D2O sample of known isotopic composition. As the reliability of Archer’s model at T > 523.15 K is uncertain, particularly at higher m(NaCl),53 the calibration at T = 573.15 K was carried out instead with water, D2O,55 and N2. The uncertainty of the calibration constant, K, was always within ±0.2% (0.12% on average) throughout the entire temperature range. The agreement and overlap between the calibrations with NaCl(aq) and N2/D2O at T ≤ 523.15 K provides a solid basis for considering that the calibration with N2/D2O at T = 573.15 K is reliable. 2960

Heat Capacity Measurements. Isobaric volumetric heat capacities (σp/J·K−1·cm−3) were measured using a commercial Tian−Calvet type differential microcalorimeter (Setaram, Lyon, France, model C-80, sensitivity = 5 μW, resolution = 0.1 μW) between 323 and 573 K at p = 10 MPa. The modifications of this apparatus and the experimental protocol for the determination of σp have been described in detail by Schrödle et al.56 Temperature fluctuations in the laboratory, which was thermostated to ±3 K, resulted in pressure changes of only ±0.3% during a typical experimental run, due to thermal lag. Such variations have an insignificant effect on the measured heat capacities. Matched nickel (low carbon, Ni-201) cells were used throughout. Target solutions were injected by syringe into one of the calorimetric cells. The overfilled cell was then pressurized, to 10 MPa with N2 (BOC, >99%) via a partially filled capillary tube of about 100 cm length connected to a buffer volume of about

1.0 L. After each experiment the sample was removed and the cell was rinsed several times with high purity water and dried with flowing nitrogen. The comparison cell always contained only air at atmospheric pressure. The calorimetric measurements were performed using a step procedure.56 Following initial stabilization for 5 h at 323 K, successive temperature increments (ΔT) were applied, with an isothermal equilibration period of (1.5 to 2.0) h between each step. Alternating increments of 5 K and 20 K with scan rates of (0.25 and 1.0) K·min−1 were used throughout except for the two highest temperature steps which were of 10 K at 0.50 K· min−1. A complete temperature scan therefore required about 2 days. High purity water and nitrogen were used as calibrating fluids57−59 as described later. This method has a reproducibility of ±0.1% and an accuracy of ±0.3% in σp over the entire temperature range.56 2961

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Densities. The results of the density measurements for KOH(aq) are summarized in Table 3. All entries are the average of two consecutive measurements using one sample loop filling. Multiple entries correspond to measurements with separate sample injections, to establish the overall reproducibility. Water densities were calculated using the IAPWS 95 formulation.57,59 The densities of the KOH solutions, ρ, can be obtained by simply adding the experimental Δρ values to the pure water density57,59 for the given experimental conditions. Apparent Molar Volumes. Apparent molar volumes, Vϕ, of KOH(aq) were calculated from the experimental densities using the usual relationship: ρ − ρw M − Vϕ = ρ m ·ρ ·ρw (2) where M is the molar mass of KOH (56.1056 g·mol−1) and m is the molality of the solution. The obtained values of Vϕ are also included in Table 3 and are plotted in Figures 1 and 2 as a function of the square root of molality and of temperature, respectively.

The number of parameters for the fitting equations was determined using a statistical F test to ensure that all parameters were statistically significant; the empirical functions and the values of the fitting parameters are listed in Table 4. The upper boxes of Figures 1 and 2 plot the observed deviations of the present experimental data from the fitting equation; they show a maximum deviation of ca. ±0.06 cm3· mol−1 with an average deviation of ±0.02 cm3·mol−1.

Standard uncertainties u are u(T) = 0.05 K, u(p) = 0.03 MPa, ur(σp) = ur(cp) = 0.003, and ur(m) = 0.0005. The combined expanded uncertainty is Uc(Cpϕ) = {2 + 10/m} J·K−1·mol−1 (level of confidence = 0.95).

Apparent Molar Heat Capacities. Apparent molar heat capacities, Cpϕ, were derived from the massic heat capacities with the usual relationship:

measurements under ambient conditions. Again, there is a significant decrease in the deviations with increasing molality (Figure 3), while the effects of temperature appear to be completely random (Figure 4). Standard molar heat capacities, Cpo, for KOH(aq), obtained by extrapolation of eq 6 to infinite dilution, are listed at rounded temperatures in the Supporting Information. Equations 3 and 6 were used to generate tables of smoothed densities and massic heat capacities at rounded temperatures and molalities at p = 10 MPa. These values are provided as Supporting Information. Comparison with Previous Studies. As indicated in Table 1 and consistent with their industrial and geochemical importance, many studies of the densities of KOH(aq) solutions have been reported in the literature. Unfortunately, even though some of these studies have covered wide ranges of concentration and temperature they mostly cannot be compared directly with the present data due to differences in measurement pressure. For this reason, the available literature data were fitted together with the present data, and comparisons made via deviations from the overall fit in which equal statistical weights have been given to each fitted data source. This overall fit which has the same form as eq 3 used for present data fitting but has different fitting parameters, has been used for comparison of the present data with the literature data only. For all other calculations the original fit (eq 3 and Table 4) was used. Since the experimental temperatures, pressures, and concentrations of the literature data and the present results overlap to some extent, this provides a reasonable estimate of the level of agreement. The deviations from the fit are shown in Figure 5, and the average characteristics of the deviations of the

respectively. For clarity, only selected isotherms were included in Figure 3. The upper boxes in Figures 3 and 4 indicate a maximum deviation of the experimental results from eq 6 of ±3 J·K−1·mol−1, with an average value of ±1 J·K−1·mol−1. This scatter is almost as good as that obtained in routine calorimetric 2966

pressure (Table 1). Despite the significant pressure difference the present Cpϕ values (at p = 10 MPa) of KOH(aq) at low temperatures (≤373 K) fit seamlessly with the data of Roux et al.,45 measured using a Picker flow calorimeter at p = 0.1 MPa and 278.15 ≤ T/K ≤ 328.15. The most recent literature data are those of Patterson et al.46 who measured heat capacities at p = 0.35 MPa up to T = 393.15 K and m(KOH) ≤ 0.5 mol·kg−1, which are also in excellent agreement with the present data in the overlapping regions of temperature and concentration. On the other hand, while Ginzburg et al.62 studied KOH(aq) up to 528.18 K, presumably at saturation pressure, their heat capacities differ significantly from ours and others. Given that Ginzburg et al. provided little information about their experimental procedure, and the scatter in their results is almost an order of magnitude greater than all other studies (Table 8), their data were judged to be of doubtful reliability Table 8.

The average characteristics of the deviations in Cpϕ of the individual data sets from the overall fitting equation (again, of the same form as eq 6 but with different parameters) are summarized in Table 8. As with Vϕ, the overall fitting equation of all (present and literature) Cpϕ values served to compare the various data sets obtained at different pressures. As the overall fits for both Vϕ and Cpϕ were used only for comparison purposes, no details of such equations are given here. Comparison of KOH(aq) with Other Alkali Metal Hydroxide Solutions. Comparison of the present results for KOH(aq) with those of the other alkali metal hydroxides is restricted by the limited availability of the latter at elevated temperatures. Density and heat capacity data for NaOH(aq) have been determined53,56 under similar conditions to the present study. In contrast, apart from some densities for LiOH(aq) solutions at close to saturation pressure,42 almost no reliable data have been reported under nonambient conditions for either volumes or heat capacities for the aqueous solutions of the other alkali metal hydroxides. Accordingly, to make such a comparison it was necessary to use unpublished data for LiOH(aq) and CsOH(aq) determined in our laboratory as part of a larger investigation of the properties of concentrated caustic solutions.63 For convenience the comparison was made in terms of differences in the apparent molar quantities between KOH(aq) and the other MOH(aq) solutions. The results so obtained are illustrated in Figures 7 and 8 for the standard (infinite dilution; m = 0) values and for a moderately concentrated (at the arbitrary value of m = 4 mol·kg−1) set of solutions. With regard to Vϕ (Figure 7), the most striking feature of the data is the almost constant differences between KOH(aq)

The high temperature data of both Mashovets et al.39 and Corti et al.,42 obtained at close-to-saturation pressure, are reasonably consistent with the present values. At low temperatures (≤373 K) all of the available data are broadly consistent with the exception of the results reported by Salavera et al.44 For heat capacities, there are few data available in the literature, mainly at low temperatures and only at atmospheric 2967

These differences essentially reflect the differences in the hard-sphere volumes of the cations (r(Cs+) > r(K+) > r(Na+)). While the Vϕ values of LiOH(aq) follow this simple pattern at lower temperatures, they depart from it markedly at higher temperatures and exhibit a significant dependence on concentration (Figure 7). These departures are almost certainly a reflection of the much greater ion pairing in LiOH(aq) cf. the other alkali metal hydroxides, especially at higher temperatures.64−66 Similar trends are observed for the apparent molar heat capacities (Figure 8). At least up to ∼525 K, the differences Cpϕ(MOH(aq)) − Cpϕ(KOH(aq)) are more or less constant and are not much affected by the solute concentration, although at higher temperatures this constancy is lost somewhat. More importantly, LiOH(aq) is again the odd system out, with its differences from KOH(aq) showing a marked dependence on both temperature and concentration, even at low T. Volume and Heat Capacity Changes for the Ionization of Water. Beside the determination of accurate densities and heat capacities of KOH(aq) up to high concentrations, a major aim of this study was to obtain appropriate data for calculating ΔVo and ΔCop for the ionization of water (eq 7). This equilibrium is without doubt the most important occurring in aqueous solution, particularly for modeling the behavior of geochemical and engineering processes. Such data can be derived from neutralization reactions, as shown for example in eq 8:

If the standard partial molar volumes and heat capacities, Voϕ and Copϕ, of KOH(aq), HCl(aq), and KCl(aq) are known under identical conditions, then ΔVo and ΔCop for the ionization process, eq 7, can be derived assuming electrolyte additivity: ΔV o = V ϕo(KOH) + V ϕo(HCl) − V ϕo(KCl) − V *(H 2O) (9)

ΔC po = C poϕ(KOH) + C poϕ(HCl) − C poϕ(KCl) − C*p (H 2O) (10)

where V*(H2O) is the molar volume of pure water and C*p (H2O) is its isobaric molar heat capacity. Both of these values are well established and were obtained from the IAPWS formulation.59 The Voϕ and Copϕ values for KCl were calculated for the present temperatures and pressure using the model of Pabalan and Pitzer;67 those for HCl(aq) were obtained from the data of Sharygin and Wood68 as described previously.56 The KOH(aq) values were taken from fitting eqs 3 and 6 by extrapolation to infinite dilution. All values were for a pressure of 10.0 MPa. The results for ΔVo and ΔCop calculated from the above data are summarized along with literature values in Table 9, and are plotted in Figures 9 and 10. Note that most of the literature data were reported at the saturation vapor pressure of pure water or, for T ≤ 373.15 K, at ambient pressure. Despite differences in pressure, at lower temperatures (T ≤ 425 K), the present values of ΔVo are in excellent agreement with all previous studies (Figure 9). As would be expected from the increasing compressibility of the solvent, the various studies diverge at higher temperatures. Thus, while there is good agreement among the present results and those obtained by Sweeton et al.69 and Sharygin and Wood,68 the results of Chen et al.71 and especially of Marshall and Franck70 are more negative. Above 523 K no data were available for comparison;

however, the present result at 573 K is in reasonable agreement with the value calculated by the present authors from the pressure derivative at 10 MPa of the ionization constant of water57 (dashed line in Figure 9). While derivatives of real equilibrium constant data are notoriously unreliable, such data have the advantage of being completely independent of density data. 2969

tration. Apparent molar quantities derived from these data were fitted by an extended Redlich−Meyer equation to obtain the standard molar values at infinite dilution. Although no direct comparisons could be made the present results were broadly compatible with the available literature data. Comparison of the present results with those of the other alkali metal hydroxides showed LiOH(aq) to be quite different. The values at infinite dilution were used to calculate the changes in volume and heat capacity associated with the ionization of water.

The present results for at lower temperatures (T ≤ 425 K), are also in excellent agreement with the literature data (Figure 10), again despite the pressure differences. At higher temperatures the agreement is still reasonable with respect to the values of Sweeton et al.,69 Palmer and Drummond,72 and Sharygin and Wood.68 On the other hand, the present results are rather less negative than those of Chen et al.71 and Djamali.73 Note that Chen et al.’s value of ΔCop at 573 K (Table 9) was omitted from Figure 10 as it was over 1000 J·K−1·mol−1 more negative than all other results. It should also be mentioned that the ΔCop values of Sweeton et al.69 and Palmer & Drummond72 were obtained from the second temperature derivative of the ionization constant of water (measured by potentiometry). While this means they are experimentally independent of any heat capacity data, the reliability of such derivatives is always questionable. Other estimates of ΔCop at high T and p, like those of Olofsson and Hepler74 or Chen et al.,71 are based on extrapolations and suffer from the large uncertainties in the thermodynamic data for NaOH(aq) at high temperatures that were available at the time. The good agreement with the values of Sharygin and Wood68 is unexpected because of the considerable difference in pressure. This is either fortuitous or it indicates that ΔCop is almost independent of pressure in the studied temperature range.
