Summary
-
1.
Solubilities of nitrites of sodium, potassium and silver have been determined in anhydrous ethylenediamine and monoethanolamine.
-
2.
Silver nitrite forms a crystalline solvate with ethylenediamine with this formula AgNO2-2 [C2H4(NH2)2].
-
3.
The ethylenediamine solutions of silver and sodium nitrites are more conducting than those of monoethanolamine; however, potassium nitrite behaves contrary to the above trend.
-
4.
Sodium nitrite shows a conductance minimum in ethylenediamine but not in monoethanolamine. Such behaviour has been encountered in ethylenediamine with mercuric cyanide13.
