Abstract

[Introduction]

The equilibrium between palladous and palladic chlorides and chlorine in hydrochloric acid solution seems not to have been previously measured, and no physico-chemical studies have been made as to the state in which bivalent and quadrivalent palladium exist in chloride solutions. It is well known, however, that from such solutions salts of the types R2Pd-Cl4 and R2PdCl6 separate, and it is probable that in such solutions the palladium exists mainly or wholly in the form of the corresponding ions PdCl4-- and PdCl6--. In that case the equilibrium to be here considered would be expressed by the simple equation: PdCl4-- + Cl2 = PdCl6--.
