Abstract
We discuss the dependence of the stability of tetrahedral complexes in molten halide mixtures on the halogen species. This is done by calculating the equilibrium concentration of (CaBr4)2-complexes in calcium-alkali bromide solutions as a function of composition, in comparison with earlier calculations on the calcium-alkali chloride systems. The comparison supports a possible trend of increasing stability from chlorides to bromides, provided that halogen polarizability or chemical bonding contribute appreciably to the binding of a complex. Supporting evidence is noted and further experiments are suggested. © 1989, Taylor & Francis Group, LLC. All rights reserved.
