Calculations of Diffusion Coefficients of Iron Salts in Aqueous Solutions at 298.15 K: A Useful Tool for the Knowledge of the Structure of these Systems

Acta Chim Slov. 2012 Jun;59(2):353-8.

Abstract

Diffusion coefficients, thermodynamic and mobility factors of iron salts in aqueous solutions are estimated from Onsager-Fuoss model. The influence of the ion size parameter a, "mean distance of closest approach of ions", determined from different approaches, on the variation of diffusion coefficients with concentration, is also discussed. The aim of this work is to have a better understanding of the structure of these systems and of the thermodynamic behaviour of iron salts in aqueous media.
