Qualitative and semiquantitative study of the Liesegang rings formed by the reaction of oxalic acid and cadmium chloride in the acidic range of pH in silica hydrogel is made. The behaviour of Jablczynski's space constant and Morce-Pierce's time constant at various temperatures, pH and concentration of outer electrolyte is studied. The possible mechanisms for the above observed behaviour are suggested. The deviations from Isemura's general obserations are interprerted by considering two particular aspects, viz., comparatively larger crystals constituting the rings and the irreversibility of inner and outer electrolytes. |
