Abstract
Diffusion coefficients of potassium, calcium and magnesium ions in ethanol-water solutions have been determined at 20°C. by means of Dowex 50W-X8 under experimental conditions that indicate that the transfer rate is controlled by film diffusion.
This investigation presents, for the first time, diffusion coefficients for these ions in ethanol solutions at concentrations below 0.01N.
The combined effect of viscosity and dielectric Constant of the solvent on the diffusion coefficient of Ions is demonstrated.
