G. Rog et A. Kozlowskarog, DETERMINATION OF THE ACTIVITIES IN (XMNO-X)NIO) BY SOLID-ELECTROLYTE GALVANIC CELLS IN THE TEMPERATURE-RANGE 973 K TO 1173 K((1), Journal of Chemical Thermodynamics, 29(3), 1997, pp. 305-310
The {xMnO +(1 - x)NiO} solid solutions were studied thermodynamically
in the temperature range from 973 K to 1173 K by sold-state galvanic c
ells containing beta ''-alumina electrolytes conducting manganese(II)
and nickel(II) ions, respectively. The experimental procedure allowed
us to determine the NiO and MnO activities directly from the e.m.f. me
asurements. The solutions exhibited positive deviation from ideal beha
viour, but they could be regarded as regular solutions. (C) 1997 Acade
