Activity of NaCl(aq). The mole-fraction-based activities (see App. A) that are called
for by eq 41 are related to the molality-based activities typically calculated in solu-
tion chemistry by

where MA is the molar mass of solvent A (kg mol1). The mean-ionic activity of
NaCl(aq), aNaCl(aq) (dimensionless) is calculated by

The mean-ionic activity coefficient, in turn, is calculated with the Pitzer model
for a mean-ionic activity coefficient in a one-electrolyte aqueous solution:

Temperature derivatives of the natural logarithms of activities of both H2O(l) and NaCl(aq).
Temperature derivatives were calculated numerically. The derivative of a function
f at T was estimated by a five-point numerical approximation,

mate should be on the order of δT4 (Burden and Faires 1989).
