Abstract: A new expression for the osmotic and activity coefFcients in single electrolyte solution is developed by reforming the Pitzer's osmotic equation. As a result, the correlations between the aMx, the sum of the " hard core" radii of ions M+ and X-, and the second virial coefficients βMX(0) and βMX(1) in Pitzer's equations are obtained.Furthermore, an "ionic overlap" model and its relevant equation are suggested. The relationships between the thermodynamic properties of aqueous electrolytes and the characteristic of their ions (ionic radii and ionic hydration) are discussed quantitatively.
