The methods for thermodynamic calculations of the equilibria in solutions of mercury salts and complexes are presented. The calculations of equilibrium constants in non-aqueous solvents are based on the transfer activity coefficients of mercury ions from water to the non-aqueous solvent. The dismutation and precipitation reaction constants are calculated, and the redox potentials of mercury systems are measured. Examples of analytical use of the thermodynamic functions of mercury salt solvation are given in the text.

AbstractEs wird die Tauglichkeit verschiedener stationärer Phasen(PFMS‐4, Carbowax 20 M,Cellit 545,Siliconelastomer E‐301) bei der gaschromatographischen Trennung und Identifizierung von Chlorierungsprodukten von Methyl‐, Äthyltrichlorsilan und Dimethyldichlorsilan untersucht.

The important factors which affect the use of non-aqueous solvents in analysis are critically discussed and guiding principles are established

The most important data on methods widely used at present to determine the concentration of moisture in substances in different states of aggregation are examined. The bibliography contains 715 references.
