Abstract
An extensive study was made of the solvent extraction of cadmium and silver dithizonates into chloroform A few extractions of silver dithizonate were made into carbon tetrachloride. In most cases extraction curves of PH versus % metal extracted were obtained and reported in terms of the PH of 50% extraction. The shift of the extraction curves to higher PH values due to the effect of ions in the aqueous phase which complex with the cadmium or silver ions was investigated An equation was developed which would predict the PH of 50% extraction for the extraction from the solutions containing these complexing ions The effects of chloride, bromide and iodide ions on the extraction of cadmium and the effects of chloride, bromide, iodide, thiocyanate and thiosulfate ions on the extraction of silver. Extraction constants for the various extractions were determined.
