Activity
• Sometimes called ‘effective concentration’, which is misleading and reflects a poor understanding of the property…
• Think of more of the effect the rest of a solution has on how easily two ions come together..

Activity
• For solids or liquid solutions:ai=Xii
• For gases:ai=Pii = fi
• For aqueous solutions:ai=mii
Xi=mole fraction of component iPi = partial pressure of component imi = molal concentration of component i

Activity Coefficients• Where do they come from??• The standard state for dissolved ions is
actually an infinitely dilute solution…• Activity of phases - gases, minerals, and bulk
liquids (H2O) are usually pretty close to 1 in waters
• Dissolved molecules/ ions have activity coefficients that change with concentration (ions are curved lines relating concentration and activity coefficients, molecules usually more linear relation)

Application to ions in solution
• Ions in solutions are obviously nonideal mixtures!
ai = imi
• The activity coefficient, i, is found via some empirical foundations
• Dependent on the other ions in water…

Dissolved species i
• First must define the ionic strength (I) of the solution the ion is in:
Where mi is the molar concentration of species i and zi is the charge of species I

Activity Coefficients
• Debye-Huckel approximation (valid for I:
• Where A and B are constants (depending on T, see table 10.3 in your book), and a is a measure of the effective diameter of the ion (table 10.4)
