Abstract: | The solubility products of mercury(II) and lead(II) dodecylbenzenesulfonates were calculated on the basis of light scattering measurements at 20°C to be (9.33 ± 0.90) × 10−13 and (1.03 ± 0.10) × 10−12 respectively. The investigations of precipitation phenomena performed in diluted natural sea-water (Cl−] = 10−12 mol dm −3), including tenside and added heavy metal ions, showed similar behaviour for all metal dodecylbenzenesulfonates investigated in this work, i.e. the synergistic effect of tenside, of added electrolyte, and of cations and anions from sea-water. A comparison made by a statistical test of significance, chosen to measure agreement between the estimates of the solubility constants obtained in aqueous solutions and in the above mentioned sea-water solution, showed a noticeable effect, evident particularly in the case of mercury(II). The precipitation of tenside and metal nitrates in natural sea-water (Cl−] = 5 × 10−1 mol dm−3) covers a wide concentration region of dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid (from high concentrations to 5 × 10−6 mol dm−3) and from high metal nitrate concentrations to very low. The microscopic textures of phases precipitated in the systems with sea-water obviously confirmed favouring formation of the liquid crystalline phase. |
