K\_HF
Description
PUBLIC function: calculates the dissociation constant of HF
Usage
K_HF(S, t, p=0, SumH2SO4=NULL, SumHF=NULL, khf="dickson", khso4="dickson")Arguments
S |
salinity in practical salinity units (i.e. no unit) |
t |
temperature in degrees centigrade |
p |
gauge pressure (total pressure minus atmospheric pressure) in bars |
SumH2SO4 |
total sulfate concentration in mol/kg-solution (calculated from S if not supplied) |
SumHF |
total fluoride concentration in mol/kg-solution (calculated from S if not supplied) |
khf |
"dickson" or "perez": specifies the S, t, dependency to be used. Default is "dickson". (see section below for references) |
khso4 |
S, t relation for K\_HSO4 needed for scale conversion: either "dickson" (default, Dickson1990) or "khoo" (Khoo1977) |
Value
the dissociation constant of HF in mol/kg-solution on the free proton pH scale
