Abstract
The degree of dissolution of nickel(II) hydroxide in mixtures of aqueous solutions of ammonia and ammonium bicarbonate has been studied. The equilibrium between the solid and liquid phases was reached in 11–12 h after the start of experiment. Nickel(II) hydroxide showed higher solubility in the ammonia–carbonate mixture compared with aqueous solutions of ammonia and ammonium bicarbonate. The ratio of ammonium bicarbonate and ammonia concentrations in solution at which the highest degree of dissolution of Ni(OH)2 was achieved was determined. An analytical description of the ion-molecular equilibrium in the ammonia– carbonate mixture was given, and the equilibrium concentrations of molecules and ions in the system were calculated. A stoichiometric equation describing the dissolution of nickel(II) hydroxide in an ammonia–carbonate solution was given.
