Summary The solubilities of citric and tartaric acids in water have been determined a t loo intervals (including 250) Over the range of temperature

0-looo.

below this transition temperature citric acid monohydrate exists, while above anhydrous citric acid is the stable phase. The solubility curve for tartaric acid is a straight line representing solutions in equilibrium with the anhydrous form of the acid.

The solubility curve for citric acid consists of two straight line curves which intersect at 35.8' ; BROOKLYN, N. Y.

The Partial Molal Volumes of Potassium Chloride, Potassium Bromide and Potassium Sulfate in Sodium Chloride Solutions BY HENRYE. WIRTH Since the discovery by Masson' that the apparent molal volume of a dissolved salt is a linear function of the square root of the volume concentration, several investigator^"^ have made exhaustive tests of the applicability of this relationship. It was found valid for a number of salts over a surprisingly large coiicentration range. Root4 derived from Masson's rule a simple equation relding density and volume concentration which has found wide application. Redlich and Rosenfeld5 derived from the Debye-Hiickel theory a linear relationship between the square root of the volume concentration and the partial molal volume of a dissolved salt. This gave a partial theoretical basis to Masson's rule as the apparent molal volume is closely related to the partial molal volume. The expression obtained was --

The factor ZWCcorresponds to the ionic strength 0x1a volume basis, so that the partial molal volume of a salt in solution should be a linear function of the square root of the volume ionic strength.

relationship was tested by determining the partial molal volumes of potassium chloride, potassium bromide and potassium sulfate in sodium chloride solutions of different concentrations. Methods Preparation of Solutions.-The salts used were either Baker Analyzed or Mallinckrodt Reagent quality and were not further purified. Salts to be weighed were dried a t 350-400". Solutions for the density determinations were prepared by adding a weighed amount of the dried salt (potassium chloride, potassium bromide or potassium sulfate) to a weighed amount of water or sodiuni chloride solution. The volume concentration of the added salt could then be calculated using the observed density. Enough sodium chloride solution for each series was prepared and its concentration determined from the density. This concentration was corrected fot: the change caused by the addition of another salt. The concentrations reported are expressed as moles per liter of solution. The sodium chloride solutions used were approximately 0.04, 0.16, 0.36, 0.64 and 1.0 normal. To each of these solutions was added sufficient potassium chloride, potassium bromide or potassium sulfate to make the volume ionic strength of the added salt approximately 0.04, 0.16, 0.36 and 0.64. Solutions in water of the latter salts of volume ionic strength 0.04, 0.16, 0.36, 0.64 and 1.0 were also prepared. Density Determination.-The density of each of the above solutions was determined by means of the sinker method. The solutions whose densities were to be measured were placed in heavily silver plated copper cans immersed in a thermostat a t 25'. Metallic containers were used to decrease the time required to attain temperature equilibrium. The temperature was maintained constant to *O.O0lo. The sinker was suspended in the solution by means of a fine platinum wire which was coated with platinum black where it passed through the liquid surface. This wire could be fastened to a pan of a balance which was supported over the thermostat. DiEerences in density were calculated directly using the equation d, - d, = (m, - ~ J / v (2)

The apparent molal volumes (Table I, Figs. 3 and 4) were calculated from the constants in these equations. The value 26.74 ml. found for the limiting apparent molal volume of potassium chloride is slightly less than that (26.81 ml.) reported by Geffcken and Price.s However, the equation given by Jones and Rayg leads to the value 26.57 ml. for @ and to values of the apparent molal volume a t higher concentrations that are in essential agreement with the results obtained by KruislO (Fig. 3).
