Thermodynamic quantities for the dissociation equilibria of biologically important compounds. 1. Theory and experimental method

Abstract
Appendix - PLEASE N. W. Univ. Coll. London Estimation of the variance of the data used in the calculation of dissociation constants Biochem. Jour. 56 (2) 196 198 1954 [long dash]The theory of thee.m.f. method for measuring accurate dissociation constants is descr., together with the calculation from such data of the thermodynamic quantities associated with the dissociation. Suit-able functions for representing activity coefficients are discussed. The exptl. apparatus and procedure, and calculations of results, are descr. Corrections are presented for correcting values of thermodynamic quantities on the molal scale to values on the molar scale. A statistical analysis of the subject is presented in the appendix.
