Abstract: The two thermodynamic dissociation constants of glycine at 5 different temperatures from 278.15 to 318.15 Kin 0.05 mole fraction 1,2-propanediol-water mixed solvent were determined from precise EMFmeasurements hydrogen-silver chloride electrondes in cells without liguid junction by using the polynomial approach proposed in this paper on the basis of Pitzer's electrolytic solution theory. As compared with traditional extrapolation on the basis of extended Debye-Huckel equation, the results obtained from both methods are in agreement with each other. The change of the first or second dissociation constants is given as a function of the thermodynamic temperature Tby empirical pK = A1/(T+A2+A3T). The thermodynamic quantities of dissociation in the mixed solvent are calculated and the results are discussed.
