Abstract
From exchange experiments on radioactive silver in solution with silver chloride in suspension, it can be shown that the silver ions in solution are constantly exchanging with the silver ions in the precipitate. This exchange is not limited to the surface of the crystals, but, probably by means of self-diffusion, is propagated into the precipitate. A steady radioactive state obtains when a homogeneous distribution of the radioactive silver throughout the whole system is reached. The time necessary to obtain a given fraction of complete exchange for a given amount of precipitate depends strongly on the area of the crystal surface.
