Table 1.21
Density of halite saturated solutions in the system H20-Nacl.
From reference [122]. System H20-NaCI. The densities above
1600C are extrapolated to the saturation curve from densities
measured at lower temperatures and at concentrations at and
below 30 wt. percent. The precision between 00 and 1100C is
0.5 kg/m3 above 0C the precision is 6 kg/m3
0.5 kg/n ; above 110'C the precision is 6 kg/nTemperature

The data for the densities of pore fluids are unreliable
because the composition and the sampling temperature
vary widely. The concentrations are higher than those
usually used in research studies on solutions of inorganic
salts. Table 1.21 gives the density of halite-saturated
solutions as a function of temperature f122]. Pore fluids,
containing less dissolved NaCI but more of the other
components such as KCI, MgCI2, MgSO4, or CaCl2,
40would be denser than the fluids in the system H20-NaCl
for which data are tabulated.
