Table 1. Estimated values of absolute density (g/cm 3) of aqueous sodium chloride solutions {NaCl + H 2 O) as function of electrolyte molality m and temperature T (at pressure p = 1 bar).
The densities for vapor-saturated aqueous sodium chloride solutions with concentration expressed in weight percent (table 2) were derived by interpolating the expressions for density as a function of the molality.
A file is presented containing tabulated data extracted from the scientific literature on the density and viscosity of aqueous sodium chloride solutions. Also included is a bibliography of the properties of aqueous sodium chloride solutions.
Changes in density of aqueous solutions with changes in concentration at 20°C. Density of inorganic chlorides in water is plotted as function of wt%, mol/kg water and mol/l solution.
Sodium is the fourth most abundant element on earth, comprising about 2.6% of the earth's crust; it is the most abundant of the alkali group of metals. It is now obtained commercially by the electrolysis of absolutely dry fused sodium chloride.
Table salt accounts for 90% of the sodium in the U.S. diet. Sodium helps balance fluid and electrolyte levels in the body. This balance can affect blood pressure and kidney and heart health. Sodium is used in the form of inhaled sodium chloride to treat cystic fibrosis.
