dsschmandt Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 Howdy, I need to add new minerals to the thermo-database because I am working with some odd-ball ones not in there yet. I am want to clarify that the log Ks that need to be entered with each mineral in Tedit, are the reaction Log K, not the formation log K, correct? Thank you very much, Danielle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Farrell Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Hi Danielle, Reactions in the GWB's thermo datasets are written as destruction reactions (i.e., a mineral breaks down to basis species instead of basis species forming a mineral). You supply the log K for the reaction as it's written. Hope this helps, Brian Farrell Aqueous Solutions LLC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsschmandt Posted February 5, 2018 Author Share Posted February 5, 2018 Thank you very much, Brian, Yes, I think this helps, I'll now have to check the papers to see if this info is published. Thank you for responding, Danielle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
