The Electric Conductivity of Molten HgI2-HgBr2 and HgI2-SbI3 Binary Mixtures

Abstract

The specific electric conductivity of molten HgI2-HgBr2 and HgI2-SbI3 binary mixtures was measured as a function of composition and temperature in the ranges 220 — 540 °C and 180 to 540 °C, respectively. In the HgI2-HgBr2 system negative deviations from additivity are found in mixtures rich in HgBr2, and positive ones in those rich in HgI2. The positive deviations are more pronounced at higher temperatures. In the HgI2-SbI3 system the deviations from additivity are negative throughout.re attractive for optical reflectance studies of electrochemical systems because of the high.
