Abstract

The Fuoss-Onsager continuity equations are solved with a Green's function technique in order to get the laws of variation of transport coefficients with concentration. Any kind of equilibrium pair correlation function can be used for this purpose, those of the MSA (mean spherical approximation) leading to explicit expressions for the variation of the self-diffusion coefficients and of the equivalent conductances with concentration. These expressions are in good agreement with the experimental values for both unassociated and associated electrolytes.
