title: Index of refraction, density, and solubility of ammonium iodide solutions at high pressure.
abstract: An asymmetric moissanite anvil cell is used to study aqueous solutions of ammonium iodide at pressures up to 10 kbar. The index of refraction is measured using the rotating Fabry-Perot technique, with an accuracy of approximately 1%. The mass density and molar volume of the solutions are estimated using the measured index values, and the molar volume is used to predict the pressure dependence of the solubility. The solubility derived from the index of refraction measurements is shown to agree with that which is determined by direct observation of the onset of crystallization.
