Reactivity in The Solid State Between Ag2S and Ag2CrO4

Reactivity, in the solid state between Ag₂S and Ag₂CrO₄, was investigated by DTA, XRD and IR methods. It was found that, according to a composition of an initial Ag₂S/Ag₂CrO₄ mixture, the products of a reaction of Ag₂S with Ag₂ CrO₄ can be: solid solution with Ag₂CrO₄ structure (Ag₂Cr_1–xS_xO₄) and AgCrO₂; or solid solution Ag₂Cr_1–xS_xO₄, Ag₂SO₄, AgCrO₂ and metallic silver; or Ag₂S, β-Ag₈S₄O₄, Ag, AgCrO₂, Ag₂SO₄ and Ag₂Cr_1–xS_xO₄ solid solution.
