Abstract The enthalpies of dilution and volumetric specific heats of most alkali halides were measured in water at 25°C with flow microcalorimeters in the concentration range 0.01 to 1m. Apparent molal relative enthalpiesφ L, derived from the enthalpies of dilution, can be represented by a parametric equation in molality. Combiningφ L with osmotic data, excess entropies can be calculated. Excess free energies, enthalpies, and entropies are compared at 0.5m, and the observed trends are consistent with a model of structural interactions in aqueous alkali halide solutions. The apparent molal heat capacitiesφ C were fitted with the equationφ C=φ C ° +AC(d0m)1/2+B C m. Theφ C ° are, in general, additive to better than 1 J-K−1-mole−1 and reflect mostly the structural part of ion-solvent interactions. Takingφ C ° (H+)=0, conventional ionicφ C ° are obtained. The parameterB C for different pairs of ions follows approximately the same trends as the corresponding parameterB V for apparent molal volumes and seems to reflect structural interactions between the ions.
