Abstract
Thermochemical data are used to construct a modified log- activity diagram for the system Cu-H-O-Cl-(CO<sub>2</sub>) at standard temperature and pressure (STP). In these diagrams, coordinate axes represent activities of aqueous copper species and chloride ions other thermodynamic variables are collapsed onto the diagram. Modified log-activity diagrams are used as a supplement to study Pourbaix diagrams for the equilibria relevant to bronze disease and copper pitting and to show the relation between them. -- CAL
