A Study on the Cation Exchange of [Co(NH3)6]3+ from H-Co (NH3)6-Vermiculite by Inorganic and Quaternary Ammonium Ions
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 July 2024
Abstract
The exchange of [Co(NH3)6]3+ from its vermiculite complex has been carried out with a number of inorganic and alkyl quaternary ammonium ions of varying ionic sizes. The distribution and selectivity coefficients of the desorbing ions increase in the order: Li<Na<NH4<K<Rb<H<Cs for the monovalent, Ca<Mg for the bivalent and (C2H5)4N<(CH3)4N≪CTA (cetyl trimethyl ammonium) <CP (cetyl pyridinium) for the organic ions. The ΔG° values of some of the cation exchange reactions have been calculated by an equation of Kielland (1935).
