The apparent dissociation constants of carbonic acid were
determined as functions of temperature and salinity in seawater
at atmospheric pressure.
There is fair agreement between my values of K'₁ and those
of Buch et al. (1932), Lyman (1956), and Hansson (1971). My values,
on the average, are 6.7% lower than Buch et al.'s (1932), 4.6%
smaller than Lyman's (1956), and 4.0% higher than Hansson's (1972).
My values for K'₂ are smaller than those reported by other
workers. They differ by 3.4% from Hansson's (1972) values, and
26% from Buch's (1938). Lyman's (1956) values are larger than
mine by 3.2% at temperatures of 25°C and below, and greater by
13.4% at 35°C. / Graduation date: 1973
