Scientific paper

Mutual diffusion coefficients have been measured by Rayleigh interferometry for two ternary brine compositions at 25°C: NaCl (0.5 M)-Na 2 SO 4 (0.5 M)-H 2 O and NaCl (0.489 M)-MgCl 2 (0.051 M)H 2 O. The latter is a ternary analog of seawater. Four diffusion coefficients are required to characterize a ternary system. The data show that the cross term diffusion coefficients are significant, and cannot be neglected in accurate geochemical modeling. Since D 21 for NaCl-Na 2 SO 4 -H 2 O is negative, a sufficient gradient of NaCl can cause Na 2 SO 4 to move "uphill" against its own gradient. One of the cross term coefficients for NaClMgCl 2 -H 2 O is nearly as large as one of the main term coefficients.
