The density, viscosity, and electrical conductivity of alkali metal acetates were measured over the temperature interval between melting and decomposition. The apparent activation energies of the equivalent conductivities and viscosities were calculated. It has been concluded from the results that alkali metal acetates, similarly to alkali metal benzenesulphonates studied earlier, exhibit properties quite unlike those of alkali metal halides. In the dependence of equivalent conductivity on the nature of the cation, the anomalous behaviour of lithium salts appears to be due to association prevailing in the melt phase. |
