  • Description: <jats:title>Abstract</jats:title> <jats:p>A general method for the determination of molecular quantities from measurements in dense phases without chemical reactions has been presented in a previous paper [1], The method is extended to phases where chemical reactions may occur. The intimate relationship between the investigation of chemical equilibria and the determination of model molar quantities is shown. Some particular reactions have to be assumed as hypothesis. A scheme is developed, by which in favorable cases it is possible to falsify the assumed hypothesis or to estimate corresponding equilibrium constants and model molar quantities. Some special chemical reactions are treated, where observable quantities are insensitive to any variation of the concentrations of solutions and therefore such methods cannot contribute to the investigation of the systems.</jats:p>
