The vapor pressures and activities of dicarboxylic acids reconsidered: the impact of the physical state of the aerosol

We present vapor pressure data of the C2 to C5 dicarboxylic acids deduced from measured evaporation rates of single levitated particles as both, aqueous droplets and solid crystals.The data of aqueous solution particles over a wide concentration range allow us to directly calculate activities of the dicarboxylic acids and comparison of these activities with parameterizations reported in the literature.The data of the The eco-epidemiology of Triatoma infestans in the temperate Monte Desert ecoregion of mid-western Argentina pure liquid state acids, i.e.the dicarboxylic acids in their supercooled melt state, exhibit no even-odd alternation in vapor pressure, while the acids in the solid form do.

This observation is consistent with the known solubilities of the acids and our measured vapor pressures of the supercooled melt.Thus, the gas/particle partitioning of the different dicarboxylic acids in the atmosphere depends strongly on the Antecedent of lack of proficiency and the need for an automated financial plan for the course entrepreneurship creativity and innovation physical state of the aerosol phase, the difference being largest for the even acids.Our results show also that, in general, measurements of vapor pressures of solid dicarboxylic acids may be compromised by the presence of polymorphic forms, crystalline structures with a high defect number, and/or solvent inclusions in the solid material, yielding a higher vapor pressure than the one of the thermodynamically stable crystalline form at the same temperature.
