Abstract
Abstract By using suitable equations, which are derived by treating the extraction of a metal complex in the general form pMY n + q RY ⇌ (RY) q (MY n ) p (with MYn extractable species, RY extracting agent, (RY) q (MY n ) p complex formed by the extraction reaction, with the bar indicating organic phase species), the physical meaning obtained by the slope analysis of extraction data (logarithmic plot of distribution coefficient vs. extractant concentration) has been discussed. The experimental case of distribution data obtained by extracting ZnCl2 with a benzene solution of trilaurylammonium chloride in a wide range of metal and extractant concentration has been treated.
