You subject a set of experimental data to a Thermodynamic Consistency test and calculate the average absolute values for the residuals of the natural log of the ratio of the activity coefficients to be 0.04. Explain, in some detail, what you can say about the thermodynamic consistency of this experimental data set.
What will be an ideal response?
According to the Van Ness heuristic, this data would have an experimental consistency index of 2. According to this heuristic, an index of 1 indicates data of the highest quality, while an index of 10 indicates data of the poorest quality. An index of 2 indicates data of high quality and would be adequately consistent for most experimental needs.
