Abstract
The nucleation and precipitation of silver chloride from homogeneous solution have been examined. Critical supersaturations of silver chloride were determined ; however, they were observed to be qualitatively different from the critical supersaturation of classical nucleation theory, and were interpreted as being dependent on the rates of both nucleation and crystal growth. The precipitation rate is not constant throughout a precipitation from homogeneous solution, but varies considerably during the early portion of the precipitation. Both this early variation in precipitation rate and the number of particles and their size distribution can be controlled to some extent by varying the concentrations of the reactants.
