Concentration Effects of Silver Ions on Ionic Conductivities of Molten Silver Halides

Ionic conductivities of molten (RbX)c(AgX)1-c (X = Cl and I) mixtures were measured to clarify the concentration effects of silver ions on ionic conductivities of molten silver halides. It is found that the addition of RbX to molten AgX rapidly reduces the ionic conductivity with 0 ≤ c ≤ 0.4. It sug...

Description
Summary:Ionic conductivities of molten (RbX)c(AgX)1-c (X = Cl and I) mixtures were measured to clarify the concentration effects of silver ions on ionic conductivities of molten silver halides. It is found that the addition of RbX to molten AgX rapidly reduces the ionic conductivity with 0 ≤ c ≤ 0.4. It suggests that strong Ag-Ag correlation is necessary to fast conduction of Ag ions in molten state. The absolute values of ionic conductivity for (RbCl)c(AgCl)1-c are larger than those for (RbI)c(AgI)1-c mixtures at all compositions. These differences might relate to difference of diffusion constant between Cl- and I- and difference of effective charge carried by an ion between molten AgCl and AgI
