Solution Chemistry in Fused Phenol. III. Conductance Studies of the Solutions of Acids, Bases and Salts in Fused Phenol

Abstract

Conductance measurements of protonic acids, Lewis acids, bases and quaternary ammonium and inorganic salts have been carried out in fused phenol at 50 � 0.1°C. The possibility of triple ion formation has been ruled out: however, an extensive ion pair formation in the solution is supported by results from plots of Λc against log√C Λ0 values have been determined for these solutes. A possibility of the estimation of weak bases, in fused phenol, has been explored, fluorosulfuric acid being used as a titrant.
