Thermochemical study of the reactions of acid–base interaction in an aqueous solution of α-aminobutyric acid

Аннотация

The heat effects of the interaction between a solution of α-aminobutyric acid and solutions of HNO₃ and KОН are measured by means of calorimetry in different ranges of рН at 298.15 K and values of ionic strength of 0.25, 0.5, and 0.75 (KNO₃). The heat effects of the stepwise dissociation of the amino acid are determined. Standard thermodynamic characteristics (Δ_rH⁰, Δ_rG⁰, and Δ_rS⁰) of the reactions of acid–base interaction in aqueous solutions of α-aminobutyric acid are calculated. The connection between the thermodynamic characteristics of the dissociation of the amino acid and the structure of this compound is considered.
