Round 10: Tossup 8
Excess Gibbs energy of systems containing these substances is calculated with binary interaction parameters in a model proposed by Chen and Evans. ITIES systems are named for acting as interfaces between two of these substances that are immiscible. Ostwald applied the law of mass action to determine these substances’ dissociation constant in his namesake dilution law. Kohlrausch’s law is used to calculate a quantity of these substances, which Lars Onsager used to calculate their activity coefficients in his modification of Debye–Hückel (“duh-BYE HUCK-ull”) theory. While moving through these substances in one device, lithium ions intercalate into graphite at a solid interface. Sulfuric acid acts as one of these substances in lead–acid batteries. For 10 points, name these substances that conduct electricity in solution through the movement of ions. ■END■
