The Electrical Conductivity and Density of Solid and Molten Li2SO4 — Ag2SO4

Abstract

The electrical conductivity of solid and molten Li2SO4—Ag2SO4 has been measured for different concentration values. Density measurements of molten Li2SO4, Ag2SO4 and equimolar (Li, Ag) 2SO4 show that the system can be considered ideal. The equivalent conductivity of molten (Li, Ag)2SO4 can be calculated from the conductivities of the pure salts by assuming that the cations are moving in groups, each group containing about four cations.
