Electrolyte diffusion of cesium bromide in water at 25 degrees C.
Electrolyte diffusion coefficients of CsBr in water have been measured using 137Cs isotope with an open ended capillary technique without stirring. The measurements were done at 25 degrees C over the concentration range of 10(-6) -0.25 M and the measured values are compared with the theoretical values of diffusion coefficients estimated on the basis of Onsager-Fuoss theory. At low concentrations, there is a good agreement between the experimental and theoretical values of diffusion coefficients. The deviations at higher concentrations are explained on the basis of the occurrence of ion-ion interactions.
