Abstract
The formation of solid phases and soluble complexes in the YbCl3–Li6P6O18–H2O system was studied. Raising the Li6P6O18 concentration from 0.01 to 0.05 mol/l at a fixed YbCl3 concentration of 0.05 mol/l leads to Yb2P6O18 · 16H2O precipitation (solubility product, 7.2 × 10–10). If Li6P6O18 is present in excess, ytterbium cyclohexaphosphate dissolves owing to the formation of soluble complexes, primarily [YbP6O18]3– and [Yb(P6O18)2]9–. The mole fractions and stability constants of ytterbium cyclohexaphosphate complexes were determined.
