Davies equation

The Davies equation is an empirical extension of Debye–Hückel theory which can be used to calculate activity coefficients of electrolyte solutions at relatively high concentrations at 25 °C. The equation, originally published in 1938, was refined by fitting to experimental data. The final form of the equation gives the mean molal activity coefficient f± of an electrolyte that dissociates into ions having charges z1 and z2 as a function of ionic strength I: − log ⁡ f ± = 0.5 z 1 z 2 ( I 1 + I − 0.30 I ) .
