Abstract

We measured the solubility of some potassium salts (KF, KCl, KBr, KI, KNO3, KClO4, KSCN, and KSeCN) in anhydrous ethylene carbonate (EC, see the figure) at different temperatures (between 20° and 60° C). EC is a polar organic solvent that possesses a significant permanent dipole moment (µ = 4.9 D) and a large relative dielectric constant (εr = 90).1 From the solubility data the main thermodynamic functions were calculated, and discussed in terms of solvation, solvent structuredness, and ion pair formation.2 The data indicate a significant specific anion effect that follows the direct Hofmeister series.3 Specific chemical interactions of EC molecules with thiocyanate and selenocyanate are reported.
