Abstract The formal standard redox potentials of samarium (III)/(II) (E*Sm3+/ Sm2+) and europium (III)/(II) (E*Eu3+ /Eu2+) in molten alkali metal chlorides were measured potentiometrically against a reference chlorine electrode. The Gibbs energy changes and equilibrium constants for the reaction LnCl2(I) + ½ Cl2(g) ⇔ LnCl3(I) were calculated for the salt systems studied. The effect of the cationic composition of the melt-solvent on the above thermodynamic characteristics is also reported.

The standard electrode potentials for the formation of the pure solid and molten compounds Li2ZrCl6, Li2HfCl6, Na2ZrCl6, Na2HfCl6, K2ZrCl6, K2HfCl6, Cs2ZrCl6, and Cs2HfCl6 have been calculated from measured vapour pressures corresponding to their thermal decomposition at equilibrium and from available thermochemical data. Reversible potentials for the formation of Na2ZrCl6 and of K2ZrCl6 in solution according to the reaction[Formula: see text]where A is Na or K, have been calculated from available equilibrium vapour pressures as functions of the mole fractions of the alkali hexachlorocompounds. Standard potentials for the above reaction and "formal" potentials are also given. The latter are useful in predicting the electrochemical behaviour of dilute solutions of the hexachlorozirconates in alkali metal chlorides.
