Solubility of 4-Nitrobenzoic Acid in Water & Salt Solutions

Solubilities of 4-nitrobenzoic acid at 25°, 35° and 42°C have been determined in water and in the presence of several concentrations of electrolytes. The free energies, enthalpies and entropies of transfer are also reported. The data have been rationalized by considering the structure-breaking effects of the ions of the salts and the requirement of the localized hydrolysis model. The theory of Symons is not satisfactory to rationalise the experimental data.

Salting Coefficients of Fluorobenzoic Acids

The Setschenow parameter and thermodynamic parameters of transfer of 2-, 3- and 4-fluorobenzoic acid from water to salt solution are reported. The data have been rationalized by considering the structure breaking effects of the ions of the salts, the localized hydrolysis model and the internal pressure theory.
