Abstract: | Aqueous solutions of vanadium(V) have been prepared at different OH− vs. vanadium concentrations from both decavanadic acid and metavanadate solutions. These solutions have been extracted with an excess of tetraheptylammonium bromide in benzene. The bromide displaced has been determined in order to gain information on the average charge of the extracting species already known to be variously protonated decavanadate anions. The addition of a constant excess of supporting electrolytes has been avoided, as it is known it could affect the position of equilibria.Besides the already well known H2V10O284−, HV10 O285− and V10O286− species, strong evidence has also been obtained for the existence of H3V10O283−.Moreover, a slow disproportionation of V10O286− into HV10O285− and V2O74− (or HVO42−) during a first stage, and then into metavanadate, resulted.Therefore, H6V10O28 proves a strong acid as triprotic instead of tetraprotic, as reported in the literature. Inconsistent results are almost certainly due to the high ionic media usually employed. |
