Lead-silver

Halogens can act as ligands and are commonly found in complex ions the ability of fluorine to form stable complex ions with elements in high oxidation states has already been discussed (p. 316). However, the chlorides of silver, lead(Il) and mercury(l) are worthy of note. These chlorides are insoluble in water and used as a test for the metal, but all dissolve in concentrated hydrochloric acid when the complex chlorides are produced, i.e. [AgCl2] , [PbC ] and [Hg Clj]", in the latter case the mercury(I) chloride having also disproportionated. 

In similar circumstances, silver salts leave a residue of metallic silver lead and copper salts usually leave a residue of the corresponding oxide calcium and barium salts leave a resirlne of the carbonate or oxide. Identify the metal in all such cases by the usual tests of qualitative inorganic analysis. Metals other than the above are seldom encountered in elementan qualitative analysis. 

Gobalt occurs in the minerals cobaltite, smaltite, and erythrite, and is often associated with nickel, silver, lead, copper, and iron ores, from which it is most frequently obtained as a by-product. It is also present in meteorites.

In 1986 Britannia Refined Metals (Northfleet, U.K.) introduced technology for the treatment of Parkes cmst, a triple alloy of Ag, Zn, Pb, which by 1992 had been adopted by seven lead refineries (22). The technology consists of a three-stage process in which the silver-rich cmst is first Hquated to reduce its lead content, then placed in a sealed furnace where the 2inc is removed by vacuum distillation and, finally, the silver—lead metal is treated in a bottom blown oxygen cupel (BBOC) to produce a Htharge slag and dorn metal. 

Lead—silver alloys are used extensively as soft solders these contain 1—6 wt % silver. Lead—silver solders have a narrower free2ing range and higher melting point (304°C) than conventional solders. Solders containing 2.5 wt % silver or less are used either as binary alloys or combined with 0.5—2 wt % tin. Lead—silver solders have excellent corrosion resistance. The composition of lead—silver solders is Hsted in ASTM B32-93 (solder alloys) (7). 

Solvent for Electrolytic Reactions. Dimethyl sulfoxide has been widely used as a solvent for polarographic studies and a more negative cathode potential can be used in it than in water. In DMSO, cations can be successfully reduced to metals that react with water. Thus, the following metals have been electrodeposited from their salts in DMSO cerium, actinides, iron, nickel, cobalt, and manganese as amorphous deposits zinc, cadmium, tin, and bismuth as crystalline deposits and chromium, silver, lead, copper, and titanium (96—103). Generally, no metal less noble than zinc can be deposited from DMSO. 

The addition of thiosulfate to aqueous solutions of silver, lead, and copper precipitates the corresponding thiosulfates, which, on heating, decompose to the sulfides. In this manner, thiosulfate can be used as a reagent for most metals having insoluble sulfides. Details of the reactions of other metals with thiosulfate are available (21). 

Many other metal thiosulfates, eg, magnesium thiosulfate [10124-53-5] and its hexahydrate [13446-30-5] have been prepared on a laboratory scale, but with the exception of the calcium, barium [35112-53-9] and lead compounds, these are of Httle commercial or technical interest. Although thaHous [13453-46-8] silver, lead, and barium thiosulfates are only slightly soluble, other metal thiosulfates are usually soluble in water. The lead and silver salts are anhydrous the others usually form more than one hydrate. Aqueous solutions are stable at low temperatures and in the absence of air. The chemical properties are those of thiosulfates and the respective cation. 

Georgius Agricola, a German scientist of the sixteenth century, was the first to mention bismuth detailing the melting of bismuth from ore (1). It was ia the sixteenth century that bismuth compounds were first discovered to have a soothing effect on stomach disorders. Bismuth compounds are stiU widely used ia preparations to reheve this condition. Not until the 1800s was bismuth refined and proven to be an element. Until that time, bismuth was usually referred to as one of the other elements with which it is associated ia ores such as antimony, silver, lead, and tin. 

In Jiltemative 3 (Fig. 3), the electrolysis may be operated on a semicontinuous basis with the cadmium eventually being stripped completely from the electrolyte, which is then discarded after suitable treatment. Instead of the usual silver—lead anodes, high siUcon-iron anodes, such as Duriron, are commonly used. 

In the search for new fluorometric reagents for trace metal determinations, ferroin-type compounds, namely 2-(2-pyridyl)-2//- and 2-(3-isoquinolyl)-3//-imidazo[4,5-/i]quinolines, and their silver, lead, and zinc chelates were tested for luminiscence in aqueous ethanol solutions at various pH values (80TAL1021).

Experience shows that in the deposition of a number of metals (mercury, silver, lead, cadmium, and others), the rate of the initial reaction is high, and the associated polarization is low (not over 20 mV). For other metals (particularly of the iron group), high values of polarization are found. The strong inhibition of cathodic metal deposition that is found in the presence of a number of organic substances (and which was described in Section 14.3) is also observed at mercury electrodes (i.e., it can be also associated with the initial step of the process). 

The total production of gold, silver and other associated base metals and silver/ gold production ratios from these deposits are summarized in Table 1.17. In addition to gold and silver, lead, zinc and manganese have been produced from some of the Se-type (e.g., Yatani) and copper has been produced from some of the Te-type (e.g., Teine, Kawazu). Total tonnage of production of Au and Ag from the Se-type is greater than...

Thus films can be divided into two groups according to their morphology. Discontinuous films are porous, have a low resistance and are formed at potentials close to the equilibrium potential of the corresponding electrode of the second kind. They often have substantial thickness (up to 1 mm). Films of this kind include halide films on copper, silver, lead and mercury, sulphate films on lead, iron and nickel oxide films on cadmium, zinc and magnesium, etc. Because of their low resistance and the reversible electrode reactions of their formation and dissolution, these films are often very important for electrode systems in storage batteries.

A poly(acrylaminophosphamic-dithiocarbamate) chelating fibre hasbeen used to preconcentratrate several trace metals in seawater by a factor of 200 [957]. The elements included beryllium, bimuth, cobalt, gallium, silver, lead, cadmium, copper, manganese, and indium. ICP-MS was used for detection. 

Electrodes responding to other halides, sulphide, cyanide, silver, lead, copper and cadmium are made using membranes fabricated from pure or doped silver sulphide (Ag2S). The membrane potential is affected by the movement of Ag+ ions between cationic lattice sites which in turn is determined by the activities of the Ag+ ion in the internal and sample solutions. As the activity of the former is fixed, that of the latter alone influences the membrane potential. The electrode will also respond to the presence of S2- ions because of their effect on the Ag+ ion activity via the solubility product expression ... 

Is more selective for metals such as mercury, silver, lead, cadmium, nickel, and cobalt than for alkaline and alkaline earth metals.
