Comment on “A Consistent Set of Pitzer Interaction Parameters for NO <sub>3</sub> <sup>–</sup> Ions in the Senary Aqueous Oceanic System at 25 °C: The Zdanovskii Approach” by A. G. Muñoz ( <i>J. Chem. Eng. Data</i> <b>2025</b> , <i>70</i> , 4–18)
In a recent article ( J. Chem. Eng. Data 2025, 70, 4−18), Muñoz presents parameters of a conventional Pitzer ion interaction model. The author claims that the model is accurate and consistent. However, this brief comment demonstrates that the model of Muñoz is not thermodynamically consistent and does not allow for accurate predictions of solubilities.
