Sievert‘s Law, activity and alternative standard states, dilute solutions and interaction parameters.
Chapter 13: Gaskell
Dilute solutions and interaction parameters.
Interaction coefficient:
Therefore, the activity coefficient of B when several other solutes are present:
Interaction parameter:
Comparing the two:
Or, if composition is expressed in wt%
Example of nitrogen dissolved in liquid iron and effect of other alloying elements:
Otherwise,
Summation over all the solutes
