Abstract

The interpretation of, and calculations made from, the ultraviolet spectra of solutions of Nb(V) in hydrobromic acid solutions ranging from 9 to 14 M and with the total Nb(V) concentration about 1 × 10 −4 M have indicated that the equilibrium: NbO(OH)Br 2− 4 + H + + Br − ⇄ NbOBr 2− 5 + H 2O, exists, at 25 °C with log K = −5.2. Further justification for this equilibrium is shown by computations made from spectra of solutions in which either the hydronium or bromide ion concentration was varied, the other ion concentration being held constant.
