Résumé du colloque

Direct measurements of electromotive force and transport numbers for sodium ion and water have been made across polystyrene-sulfonic acid ion-exchange membranes separating different solutions of sodium chloride over a wide range of external solution concentration. The results indicate that the electrochemical potentials corresponding to the reversible transport of sodium chloride and water may be measured with a reasonably high degree of precision using polystyrene-sulfonic acid ion-exchange membranes even in highly concentrated solutions. The measured electrical transference numbers for sodium ion verify the estimates of transference numbers which have been made from ion-interchange fluxes obtained in counter-diffusion experiments across the same membrane separating isotonic solutions of sodium nitrate and hydrochloric acid using the Nernst-Planck equation.
