Abstract
The dependence of the ferric chelate ( trans -1,2-diaminocyclohexanetetraacetic acid) acid−base stoichiometric equilibrium constant on pH and on low-to-moderate ionic strength [(0 < I ≤ 2) mol kg -1 ] was systematically studied in sodium chloride, sodium sulfate, and lithium chloride aqueous solutions at 298 K. Activity coefficient models characterizing the ionic behavior of electrolytic solutions were applied in conjunction with the measured equilibrium constant ( K C ) in order to obtain the thermodynamic equilibrium constant ( K ) for the Fe 3+ CDTA 4- /Fe 3+ OH - CDTA 4- couple in slightly-to-moderately alkaline conditions (8 ≤ pH ≤ 10.5). On the basis of the Hückel, Bromley, Scatchard, and Pitzer models, the best fit over 150 K C measurements procured an optimal log( K ) value of 4.288 ± 0.022 at (298 ± 1) K. A good fit of the K C measurements was achieved in the following ionic strength regions: Hückel ( I < 0.25 mol kg -1 ), Bromley ( I < 1 mol kg -1 ), Scatchard ( I < 1.5 mol kg -1 ), Pitzer ( I < 2 mol kg -1 ). In those instances, the predictions presented acceptable fitting capability well within the accepted limits (average absolute error on p K C < 0.05).

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
