Phase equilibria and volumetric properties for the System NaCl-CaCl[sub 2]-H[sub 2]O
Low temperature phase relations in the ice-stable field of the system NaCl-CaCl[sub 2]-H[sub 2]O were determined under 1 atm. total pressure along the NaCl-H[sub 2]O and CaCl[sub 2]-H[sub 2]O binaries and along five pseudobinaries with constant NaCl/(NaCl+CaCl[sub 2]) weight ratios. The results are in excellent agreement with published data along the NaCl-H[sub 2]O binary but show large discrepancies when compared to previous determinations of the ice liquidus alone, the CaCl[sub 2]-H[sub 2]O binary and in the NaCl-CaCl[sub 2]-H[sub 2]O ternary. At moderate to high salinities, isotherms cross the ice sub-field at lower total salt concentrations than previously reported. In addition, NaCl(NaCl+CaCl[sub 2]) weight ratios estimated from hydrohalite- and ice-melting temperatures may be low by as much as 15%. Relative densities were measured for NaCl(aq) and CaCl[sub 2](aq) solutions to 250[degrees]C and 400 bars and over the range of ionic strengths 0.2--5.5 and 0.2--19.2 mol[center dot]kg[sup [minus]1], respectively. The results span the pressure and temperature of earlier volumetric studies and extend to higher molalities than reported previously. The relative densities have been fitted as apparent molar volumes (V[sub [phi]]) using the Pitzer ion-interaction treatment, with appropriate expressions chosen for the temperature- and pressure-dependence of the virial coefficients of the model. The results presented for NaCl(aq) are in good agreement with published results to 250[degrees]C. The results presented for CaCl[sub 2](aq) are in good agreement with published values to approximately 125[degrees]C.
