Isothermal vapor-liquid equilibrium data at 75°,50°

and 25°C

for the system of 2-propanol-water-lithium perchlorate were obtained by using a modified Othmer still. In the 2-propanolrich region 2-propanol was salted out from the aqueous solu­ tion by addition of lithium perchlorate, but in the water-rich region 2-propanol was salted in.

It is suggested from the ex­

perimental data that the simple electrostatic theory cannot ac­ count for the salt effect parameter of this system.

dissolved salt i n a m i x e d solvent consisting of water a n d a nonelectrolyte changes the phase e q u i l i b r i u m b y causing preferential solvation i n the l i q u i d phase. A c c o r d i n g to Johnson a n d F u r t e r ( I ) the salt effect on the v a p o r - l i q u i d equilibrium is defined b y the relative change of the chemical potentials of both solvents b y dissolution of salt i n the m i x e d solvent. If temperature, pressure, a n d a m i x e d solvent composition are f i x e d , the salt effect is a function of salt concentration only. Johnson and Furter assume a linear relation between the relative change of each chemical potential and the salt concentration as a first approximation. N o one so far has reported the results of testing the linearity of the relationship under the o r i g i n a l l y d e r i v e d conditions.

Consideration

T o 2-propanol and water (designated b y the subscripts 1 a n d 2 respectively) a nonvolatile salt (designated b y subscript 3) is added. A t i n f i n i t e d i l u t i o n this salt dissociates into an i o n couple. T h e p r o b l e m is to define the extent of the salt effect on a two-component solvent. If the salt has an equal effect on both components of the solvents, then it can be assumed a) where
