β¦ Synopsis
The apparent standard electrode potential for the system Pt(II)/Pt(O) in molten MgC!&-NaCl-KC1 (50:30:20 mole per cent) as solvent at 475Β°C was measured. On the mole-fraction scale this is -0*0760 f OWO8 V u.r the standard chlorine reference. Based on this, the apparent standard electrode potentials of other systems, earlier reported us Pt(Il)/Pt(O), are converted to standard chlorine as reference. For four typical systems, Ag(I)/Ag(O), Pb(II)/Pb(O), Ni(II)/Ni(O) and Co(II)/Co(O), apparent standard electrode potentials us standard chlorine reference were also measured; these agreed with the converted values to within 2-10 mV. Electrode potentials in this solvent are also compared with those reported in molten LiCl-KC1 and in molten NaCl-KC1 as solvent. R&ann6-Determination du potentiel standard apparent de l'electrode Pt/Pt(II), dans MgCl,-NaCl-KC1 fondu (50:30:20 mole %) comme solvant, a 475Β°C. Sur l'echelle des fractions molaires, c'est -0,076o f 0,0008 V par rapport a l'electrode de reference a &lore. Sur cette base, les potentiels standard apparents des autres systemes, signities anterieurement par rapport a Pt/Pt(II), ont et6 convertis selon reference a l'electrode standard au &lore. Pour quatre systemes typiques, A&I)/ Ag(0) Pb(II)/Pb(O), Ni(II)/Ni(O) et Co(II)/Co(O), les potentiels standards apparents de l'electrode, rapport& a l'electrode standard a &lore ont et6 aussi mesures. 11s s'accordent avec les valeurs converties, dans les limites de 2-10 mV. Les potentiels d'electrode dans ce solvant sont par ailleurs compares avec ceux obtenus dans LiCl-KC1 fondu et NaCl-KC1 fondu comme solvants. Zusammer&ssnrt8-Man ermittelte das scheinbare Standardelektrodenpotential des Systems Pt(II)/ Pt(0) in einer MgCl,NaCl-KC1 Molenbruch-(50 : 30 : 20 Mol "/,)-Schmelze als Liisungsmittel bei 475Β°C. Auf der Skala betriigt dieses -0,076O f 0,0008 V gegen die StandardXhlorreferenzelektrode. Auf dieser Grundlage wurden die scheinbaren Standardelektrodenpotentiale anderer Systeme, welche in der Vergangenheit gegen Pt(II)/Pt(O) angegeben worden waren, auf die Standard-Chlorreferenzelektrode umgerechnet. Im weiteren wurden an 4 typischen Systemen, Ag(l)/Ag(O), W(R)/ Pb(O), Ni(II)/Ni(O) und Co(II)/Co(O) die scheinbaren Standardelektrodenpotentiale gegen die Standard-Chlorreferenzelektrode ebenfalls gemessen; die ermittelten Werte stimmten mit den umgerechneten Daten imerhalb n 2-1OmV tiberein. Die Elektrodenpotentiale im untersuchten Lijsungsmittel wurden such mit den Daten, welche ftir LiCl-KCl-und NaCl-KClSchmelzen vorliegen, verglichen.
