| Abstract: | In recent years, independent investigators have studied the anhydrous system composed of cobalt(II) chloride and acetonitrile and have arrived at results which appear to be somewhat ambiguous. G. J. Janz and co-workers have proposed the following model as a description of the most significant equilibrium processes occurring in the system, where L=CH3CN, [see PDF for equation] [line break] and have attempted substantiate this postulate with electrical conductance data, substrate analysis, and visible absorption spectra. ... |
