Abstract
Methods and techniques for measuring the conductances of reactor solutions at elevated temperatures and to interpret the results with electrolytic solution theories are discussed. Criteria applied to room-temperature conductances for determining complete ionization of 1-1 electrolytes were applied to the Noyes high-temperature conductance data obtdined on NaCl, HCl, KCl, NaOH, AgNO3, and H/sub 3/PO/sub 4/ solutions. lt was found that the first four electrolytes behave as strong electrolytes up through temperatures of 218, 218, 281, and 156 deg C, respectively. Application of the Bjerrum theory showed that, somewhat above each of these temperatures, these electrolytes begin to associate by ion-pair formation. H/sub 3/PO/sub 4/ solutions associated at room temperature and above. AgNO/sub 3/ solutions appeared to asscciate at all temperatures. The equivalent conductances and infinite dilution and the dissociation constants for each of the electrolytes were calculatsd. An apparatus was constructed and measurements were made on the conductances of LiOH and NH/sub 4/OH solutions over the temperature range of 100 to 520 deg F. Equivalent conductances at infinite dilution were calculated. The pH of reactor coolants using LiOH or NH/sub 4/OH was calculated from the disscciation constants for water, LiOH, and NH/sub 4/OH at elevated temperatures. (auth)
