Activity coefficient assumptions in the determination of association constants. VI. Association of thallium(I) bromide from absorbance measurements

Abstract

Measurements are reported of the optical absorbance of aqueous solutions of thallium(I) bromide in mixture with other electrolytes a t 25°. These measurements are similar to those previously reported1 for thallium(I) chloride and are used in conjunction with two different types of ionic activity coefficient expressions to investigate association of thallium(I) bromide. Both types of expression give a reasonable description of the experimental results but there is the same disagreement with the analysis of solubility measurements found for thallium(1) chloride.
