In salt solubility

It should be pointed out (Kulaev et al., 1974a) that in Rh. rubrum, both in the dark and in the light, the accumulation of PolyP took place not only in salt-soluble but also in alkali-soluble and hot-perchloric-acid-extractible fractions. The total amounts of PolyP... 

Decline in salt solubility and their precipitation. Consequence formation of calcareous tuff (travertine) or geyserite at the exposure of thermal water. 

In this connection it is interesting that analogies are found also in salt solubilities. Thus the sequence for benzoates Li < Na < K is altered by introduction of OH to that of salicylate K < Na < Li.

Although the data for the silver halides suggest that silver(I) fluoride is likely to be more soluble than the other silver halides (which is in fact the case), the hydration enthalpies for the sodium halides almost exactly balance the lattice energies. What then is the driving force which makes these salts soluble, and which indeed must be responsible for the solution process where this is endothermic We have seen on p. 66 the relationship AG = — TAS and... 

Originally, general methods of separation were based on small differences in the solubilities of their salts, for examples the nitrates, and a laborious series of fractional crystallisations had to be carried out to obtain the pure salts. In a few cases, individual lanthanides could be separated because they yielded oxidation states other than three. Thus the commonest lanthanide, cerium, exhibits oxidation states of h-3 and -t-4 hence oxidation of a mixture of lanthanide salts in alkaline solution with chlorine yields the soluble chlorates(I) of all the -1-3 lanthanides (which are not oxidised) but gives a precipitate of cerium(IV) hydroxide, Ce(OH)4, since this is too weak a base to form a chlorate(I). In some cases also, preferential reduction to the metal by sodium amalgam could be used to separate out individual lanthanides. 

Salts of many organic acids give precipitates with mercuric chloride solution. hut these are in uallv soluble in dfl. HCl. 

Sulphonic acids. The aromatic sulphonic acids and their alkali metal salts are soluble in water, but insoluble in ether (Solubility Group II). They are best characterised by conversion into crystalline S-benzyl-iso-thiuronium salts (see Section IV,33,2 and 111,85,5), which possess characteristic melting points. A more time-consuming procedure is to treat the well-dried acid or... 

A number of gravimetric methods, such as the determination of Ct in a soluble salt, have been part of the standard repertoire of experiments for introductory courses in analytical chemistry. Listed here are additional experiments that may be used to provide practical examples of gravimetry. 

Salts are made by reaction of acryhc acid with an appropriate base in aqueous medium. They can serve as monomers and comonomers in water-soluble or water-dispersible polymers for floor pohshes and flocculants. 

The cobalt catalyst can be introduced into the reactor in any convenient form, such as the hydrocarbon-soluble cobalt naphthenate [61789-51 -3] as it is converted in the reaction to dicobalt octacarbonyl [15226-74-17, Co2(CO)g, the precursor to cobalt hydrocarbonyl [16842-03-8] HCo(CO)4, the active catalyst species. Some of the methods used to recover cobalt values for reuse are (11) conversion to an inorganic salt soluble ia water conversion to an organic salt soluble ia water or an organic solvent treatment with aqueous acid or alkah to recover part or all of the HCo(CO)4 ia the aqueous phase and conversion to metallic cobalt by thermal or chemical means. 

Chlorine is soluble in water and in salt solutions, the solubihty decreasing with salt strength and temperature (see Fig. 34). It is partially hydrolyzed in aqueous solution as... 

Tolbutamide Sodium USP. Orinase Diagnostic [473-41-6] (A/-[(butylamine)carbonyl]-4-methylben2enesulfonamide, monosodium salt), mol wt 292.33, is a white to off-white practically ododess crystalline powder having a slightly bitter taste. It is freely soluble in water, soluble in alcohol and chloroform, and very slightly soluble in ether and can be prepared by dissolving tolbutamide in aqueous NaOH. 

Agriculture ndNutrition. Cobalt salts, soluble in water or stomach acid, are added to soils and animal feeds to correct cobalt deficiencies. In soil apphcation the cobalt is readily assimilated into the plants and subsequendy made available to the animals (56). Plants do not seem to be affected by the cobalt uptake from the soil. Cobalt salts are also added to salt blocks or pellets (see Feeds and feed additives). 

Acids that are solids can be purified in this way, except that distillation is replaced by repeated crystallisation (preferable from at least two different solvents such as water, alcohol or aqueous alcohol, toluene, toluene/petroleum ether or acetic acid.) Water-insoluble acids can be partially purified by dissolution in N sodium hydroxide solution and precipitation with dilute mineral acid. If the acid is required to be free from sodium ions, then it is better to dissolve the acid in hot N ammonia, heat to ca 80°, adding slightly more than an equal volume of N formic acid and allowing to cool slowly for crystallisation. Any ammonia, formic acid or ammonium formate that adhere to the acid are removed when the acid is dried in a vacuum — they are volatile. The separation and purification of naturally occurring fatty acids, based on distillation, salt solubility and low temperature crystallisation, are described by K.S.Markley (Ed.), Fatty Acids, 2nd Edn, part 3, Chap. 20, Interscience, New York, 1964. 

The oxidation products are almost insoluble and lead to the formation of protective films. They promote aeration cells if these products do not cover the metal surface uniformly. Ions of soluble salts play an important role in these cells. In the schematic diagram in Fig. 4-1 it is assumed that from the start the two corrosion partial reactions are taking place at two entirely separate locations. This process must quickly come to a complete standstill if soluble salts are absent, because otherwise the ions produced according to Eqs. (2-21) and (2-17) would form a local space charge. Corrosion in salt-free water is only possible if the two partial reactions are not spatially separated, but occur at the same place with equivalent current densities. The reaction products then react according to Eq. (4-2) and in the subsequent reactions (4-3a) and (4-3b) to form protective films. Similar behavior occurs in salt-free sandy soils. 

In seawater, HCO3 ions lead to surface films and increased polarization. In aqueous solutions low in salt and with low loading of the anodes, less easily soluble basic zinc chloride [10] and other basic salts of low solubility are formed. In impure waters, phosphates can also be present and can form ZnNH4P04, which is very insoluble [11]. These compounds are only precipitated in a relatively narrow range around pH 7. In weakly acid media due to hydrolysis at the working anode, the solubility increases considerably and the anode remains active, particularly in flowing and salt-rich media. 

Pure aluminum is used in the electrolysis protection process, which does not passivate in the presence of chloride and sulfate ions. In water very low in salt with a conductivity of x < 40 yUS cm" the polarization can increase greatly, so that the necessary protection current density can no longer be reached. Further limits to its application exist at pH values < 6.0 and >8.5 because there the solubility of Al(OH)3 becomes too high and its film-forming action is lost [19]. The aluminum anodes are designed for a life of 2 to 3 years. After that they must be renewed. The protection currents are indicated by means of an ammeter and/or a current-operated light diode. In addition to the normal monitoring by service personnel, a qualified firm should inspect the rectifier equipment annually. 

For the assay of ephedrine in the total alkaloids a colorimetric method based on the biuret reaction was used by Feng and Read and is described in detail by Feng. Krishna and Chose separated ephedrine and iji-ephedrine by treating the dry mixed hydrochlorides with dry chloroform in which the ephedrine salt is virtually insoluble and the -ephedrine salt soluble. ...
