On the Predictive Ability of the New Thermodynamics of Electrolyte Solutions
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This work highlights the main elements of the new thermodynamic approach to electrolyte solutions and demonstrates its ability to make predictions for mixed salt systems. After a review of the state of affairs before the measurement of activities of individual ions, experimental set-ups used for these measurements are described and the essential elements of different methods used to reduce the data are discussed. The results of experiments carried to test a possible bias introduced by uncertainty in the values of the junction potential are emphasized. It is purported that the thermodynamic treatment proposed by Lin and Lee is of general application and ensures the thermodynamic consistency of correlations previously proposed for the individual ionic activities. It is shown that the use of a more complex form for the contribution of long-range interactions to ionic activities leads to a simpler form of the osmotic coefficient. As an example of application, the predictions of the equilibrium pressure over NaCl + KCl, NaBr + KBr, and NaCl + CaCl 2 aqueous solutions, at different temperatures and compositions, are compared with independently measured experimental data.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
