Viscosity B Coefficients for the Tetraalkylammonium Halides

Viscosity measurements a t concentrations up to 0.2 M for the tetramethyl-, tetraethyl-, tetrapropyl-, and tetrabutylammonium bromides and iodides are reported in H20, D20, CHaOH, and CHICN a t various temperatures between 0 and 65". The viscosity B coefficients calculated from the Jones-Dole equation exhibit the same behavior as would be predicted from the dependence of the Walden product on solvent and on temperature. In aqueous solutions, the Pr4N+ and Bu4N+ ions appear to be excellent structure makers and the Me4N+ ion appears to be a structure breaker, while for the Et4N+ ion the two effects appear to cancel.

Introduction I n the preceding paper,2 the Walden product for spherical ions in aqueous solution was shown to be influenced by solvent structural effects. Gurney3 has shown that there is a relationship between the temperature coefficients of the Walden product and viscosity B coefficients obtained from the Jones-Dole4 equation for the alkali halides in aqueous solution. Here we report viscosity B coefficients for the tetraalkylammonium bromides and iodides and show that a similar relationship exists for these large symmetrical ions depending on the specific structure-making or structure-breaking ability of the ions involved. Temperature dependence of the B coefficients have been measured in H20, D20, methanol, and acetonitrile solutions to illustrate clearly the dependence of transport properties on the amount and type of structure in the solvent. These B coefficients have been usedalready to correct the concentration dependence of conductance for the viscosity effect of these large cation^.^

for all of the solutions at 65" were assumed to be identical with those at 45". Two Ubbelohde-type suspended-level viscometers with flow times for water at 25" of 500 sec were employed in all of the measurements. One of the viscometer# was found to give the same calibration for a number of nonaqueous liquids of low surface tension, whereas the other was constructed here and gave accurate results for aqueous solvents. Neither viscometer was found to require a kinetic energy correction based on the results of repeated runs on a number of concentrated sugar solutions. Runs were repeated until three determinations within 0.2 sec were obtained.

Results The relative change in viscosity, I,due to the addition of salt to the solvent, was obtained from the measured flow times, t and to, for solutions and solvent, respectively, by means of

where At is a flow time correction found necessary for some of the salts studied in aqueous solution and was detected by the fact that r l , ~did not extrapolate to zero as C --t 0. The magnitude of At was determined by measuring the viscosity of solutions so dilute (C < 10-6 M ) that the flow time should have been that of the pure solvent. The maximum difference in time encountered amounted to 2 sec. The At determined in this way were found to give rl, that extrapolated to zero as C --t 0 in every case where the correction was required. This correction was required for only three sets of data, Bu4NI, Pr4NBr, and Pr4N1, in aqueous solutions. The fact that At was detectable in such extremely dilute solutions suggests that it is a surface tension effect resulting from a minute trace of surfaceactive impurity in the salts in question. We have detected this same behavior in the data for Bu4NBr reported by other workers.' The values of rl,/C'/2 in Table I for all systems studied have been corrected where necessary. The solution densities used in eq 1 were obtained by direct measurement generally on the most concentrated solution studied. It was found that the relationship d = do B f i , where f i is the concentration in moles per kilogram of solution, held over a wide concentration and temperature range. Consequently, many of the required values of 0 could be estimated from values obtained by direct measurement. The viscosity B coefficients in Table I1 were obtained empirically from the Jones-Dole4 equation

(3) The validity of the relationship was established for each of the solvent systems investigated and for the temperature range studied by measuring at least one salt containing the larger ions at a number of points covering a wide concentration range. Once this was established, only one or two points were required to obtain B coefficients for other salts. Included in Table I1 are the data of Laurence and Wolfendens for EtrNBr and the data of Huckel and Schaaf9 for Et4NI and Me4NIin aqueous solutions.

dependence of viscosity with the possible exception of the aqueous tetramethylammonium salts. At most A amounted to 0.01 in aqueous and 0.02 in nonaqueous solutions. This term in the viscosity equation is interpreted as the contribution from interionic forces that tend to interfere with the flow of one layer of solution past another. Theoretical values calculated from the Falkenhagen equationlo agreed within 25% with the measured values. Plots of eq 3 were found to be linear up to concentrations of 0.1 M in aqueous solution and to somewhat higher concentrations in methanol. In aqueous solution, positive deviations were observed at higher concentration of the larger salts and introduced some uncertainty in the determination of B. The internal consistency of our results is shown in Table I11 by the constant difference in B for bromides and iodides in HzO and DzO solution. Our value of 0.05 compares well with the generally accepted value of 0.03 for aqueous solutions.” Furthermore, the difference between our MerNBr and Huckel and Schaaf’s values for Rfe4NI is 0.03 over the whole temperature range as can be seen in Figure 1, although the agreement between Et4NBr and Et4NI is not as good at temperatures above 25”. Our values for Et,NBr a t higher and lower temperatures are consistent with that of Laurence and Wolfenden at 25”, as is also shown in Figure 1. Kaminskyl2 has demonstrated the additivity of ionic B coefficients for aqueous solutions at various temperatures. The Journal of Physical Chemistry

The value of 1.34 quoted by Fuoss and Kraus’ reduces to 1.27 if the high points at the two lowest concentrations reported are corrected for At as mentioned above.

the smaller ions from 12.5 to 45". He justified this split on the basis of the almost identical cation and anion transference numbers for KC1 at all temperatures and by the fact that he obtained ionic values in good agreement with those reported by Cox and Wolfenden15 that were based on the mobility difference for the Li+ and IO3- ions. We have followed Kaminsky's procedure and have used his data for the iodide ion shown in Figure 1 and the difference ( B Y ~ ~ N B ~ - BH~,NI), also shown in Figure 1, to calculate B B ~ and consequently all of the ionic B coefficients for the tetraalkylammonium ions given in Table IV. A similar split cannot be used to obtain ionic B values for methanol and acetonitrile solutions because of the lack of suitable data for KC1 and KBr in these solvents. Viscosities of dilute methanol solutions of KCl and KBr as determined by Jones and FornwalP produced two values of B, depending on the concentration range considered, whereas our data for the quaternary salts gave very linear plots of eq 3 and a single value of B over the same concentration range. Ionic B values for methanol solutions will require a reinvestigation of at least KC1 in methanol solutions.

We had hoped to verify the increase in structure-making properties of the large hydrophobic cations, Bu4N+ and Pr4N+, in DzO over that in HzO as was demonstrated from conductance measurement^.^^ Although the trends are in the expected direction, the effect is too small to be established by viscosity measurements with the precision reported here. It is interesting to calculate B coefficients from eq 4 using data reported by Robinson and Stokes22 for the ionic radii. The results are given in Table V and indicate a surprisingly good agreement with the observed data for these salts in methanol solutions. However, considering the assumptions involved in the model used and the general lack of data for nonaqueous

solvents, this agreement must be considered fortuitous a t the present time. Table V: Viscosity B Values Calculated from Eq 4 MerNBr

Thermal Diffusion in an Oxidation-Reduction Thermocell-the Bismuth-Bismuth Iodide System1

by Jordan D. Kellner Atomics International, A Division of North American Aviation, Inc., Canoga Park, California (Received January 4 , 1966)

The Soret effect was studied in a metal-fused salt system by measuring the final thermoelectric potential (in the Soret steady state) of a Bi-BiI, thermocell, containing inert electrodes, over the composition range 1-90 mole % bismuth. The value at 500" was large a t low metal concentrations (-4600 pv/deg at 1 mole % metal) and diminished exponentially to that of the initial thermoelectric power at about 30% dissolved bismuth metal. From 30 to 90% bismuth, the initial and final thermoelectric powers were identical. No Soret effect is observed at compositions where electronic conduction predominates. At these compositions the results suggest that the transport properties of the cations (Bi+, Bi3+) are indistinguishable because the electron exchange between cations is much faster than ionic migration.

Introduction The Soret effect occurs when a temperature gradient is imposed on a two-component liquid system. A partial demixing results which continues until a steady state is reached where the diffusion along the tempera-

ture gradient is just balanced by ordinary diffusion in the opposite direction along the concentration gradient. (1) This work was supported by the Research Division of the U. 9. Atomlc Energy Commission.
