摘要

This study allowed us to establish a procedure for determining the pH of seawater by the primary method using cell without junction (Harned cell) in artificial seawater without sulfate ASW-SO4 which is taken as a reference buffer solution featuring the natural seawater at salinity 35 and an ionic strength equal to \({0.6731\text{ mol kg}}^{-1}\) 0.6731 mol kg - 1 . The determination of the coefficient average activity ( \(\gamma \pm HCl\) γ ± H C l ) of HCl was taken from two approaches. The first one is an experimental approach in which we introduced the potential standard value ( \(E^\circ \) E ) calculated in dilute media. In the second approach, we applied and adapted the Pitzer model in function of the temperature (15, 25 and 35 °C) taking into account all the parameters of the solution in ionic interactions and we demonstrated its feasibility for the solution ASW-SO4. The choice was made for the first option which was preferred because of its simpler implementation.
