The standard state used in the present study is one of unit activity of the pure solvent at any pressure and temperature, and the standard state for gases is unit fugacity of the ideal gas at any temperature and 1 bar (0.1 MPa). The standard state convention for aqueous species is one of unit activity in a hypothetical 1 molal solution referenced to infinite dilution at any pressure and temperature.
