An empiric equation, G ex H 2O /(1- x (H 2O)) 2= α+β·x (H 2O)/ln( x (H 2O)), representing the relation between the excess free energy G ex H 2O and mole fraction of water x (H 2O) in binary electrolyte solution, was developed and the parameters α and β in the equation were determined by fitting the experimental data for some binary aqueous systems of electrolytes such as CuCl 2, NiCl 2, HCl, NaCl, KCl, CaCl 2 and BaCl 2. The activities of water in such ternary and multi component systems composed of 7 binaries as HClH 2OCuCl 2, HClH 2ONiCl 2, HClH 2ONaCl, NaClH 2OKCl, NaCl H 2OCaCl 2, KClH 2OCaCl 2, NaClH 2OBaCl 2, KClH 2OCaCl 2 and NaClH 2OKClBaCl 2 were predicted by a simplified sub regular solution model developed by authors from the corresponding binary systems. The predicted results are in good agreement with the measured ones. [
