Abstract

This work presents the results of a study of the Tm3+/Tm2+ couple redox potentials vs. Cl–/Cl2 reference electrode at the temperature range (833 to 1073)K in molten equimolar NaCl–KCl and NaCl–2CsCl eutectic by direct potentiometric method. Initial concentrations of TmCl3 in solvents did not exceed 5.0mol%. Apparent standard redox potentials of the couples ETm3+/Tm2+∗ were determined in different solvents. Basic thermodynamic properties of the reaction TmCl2(l)+1/2Cl2(g)⇔TmCl3(l) were calculated. The dependence between the apparent standard redox potentials of the couples ETm3+/Tm2+∗ and the ionic potential of the solvents was established.
