The autoprotolysis constant KHS of formic acid/water mixtures as solvent has been calculated from acid-base potentiometric titration curves. A correlation of the acidity scale pKHS of each media vs. that of pure water has been implemented owing to the electrochemical redox function R°(H+) of Strehlow. The results show that formic acid/water mixtures are much more dissociated than pure water; they are sufficiently dissociated media to allow electrochemical measures without addition of an electrolyte. It has also been shown that for a same H+ concentration the activity of protons increases when formic acid concentration grows. For more than 80% by weight of formic acid the acidity is sufficiently increased so that the whole acidity scale pKHS is in the super acid medium of the generalized acidity scale pHH2O. | |
