Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Compound Formation, Solubility, and Ionization in Fused Salt Mixtures: Compound Formation Between Aluminium Bromide, and Other Bromides
In a recent series of papers by Kendall and his coworkers1 extensive evidence has been presented correlating compound forma tion, solubility, and ionization in solution. It has been postulated that compound formation is most marked and consequently solubility is most extensive in systems where the radicals are most diverse in character; the criterion of diversity being their position in the electrode potential series. Thus Landon2 and Davidson3 found in the systems sulfuric acid-metal sulfate that potassium and silver, the metals farthest removed from hydrogen in either direction, gave the greatest compound formation. This diversity rule has been tested for a large number of systems and has been found to hold Without marked exception. A few minor discrepancies, however, have come to light; and in order to explain these, several additional factors, such as atomic volume, internal pressure, and unsaturation, which will be taken up more fully below, have been mentioned.
