Thermodynamics of transfer of polar nonelectrolytes from water to aqueous salt solutions

565-567The Setschenow parameter and thermodynamic parameters of transfer of a number of mono substituted benzoic acids from water to different salt solutions have been reported. The data have been rationalized by considering the structure breaking effects of the ions of the salts, the localized hydrolysis model, the internal pressure theory and Symons' theory of water structure
