Solubility and ionic processes in the CuX2-MX-H2O (X-=Cl-, Br-; M+=Li+, Na+, K+, NH4+, Cs+) systems

Abstract

Solubility isotherms in the CuBr2 - MBr - H2O (M+ = Li+, Na+, Cs+) systems at 298.15 K were measured. The results together with other available literature data for copper chloride and bromide systems were treated by hydration analysis, and comparative discussion of ionic processes taking place in the respective saturated solutions was performed.
