The Electric Conductivity of Molten HgI₂ -HgBr₂ and Hgl₂ -Sbl₃ Binary Mixtures

Abstract

The specific electric conductivity of molten HgI2-HgBr2 and HgI2-SbI3 binary mixtures was measured as a function of composition and temperature in the ranges 220 - 540 °C and 180 to 540 °C, respectively. In the HgI2-HgBr2 system negative deviations from additivity are found in mixtures rich in HgBr2, and positive ones in those rich in HgI2. The positive deviations are more pronounced at higher temperatures. In the HgI2-SbI3 system the deviations from additivity are negative throughout.

“…to the value reported in NSRDS-NBS-15 [1] the uncertainty estimate should be revised to ± 1.5%. [127]. This section contains the studies tables and the numerical tables for the physical properties of bromide-bromide melts.…”

“…These values were interpolated to two significant figures from the graphical presentatjon of Mentus andSusic (classical ac technique) [127]. …”
