Acid-Base Equilibria and Copper Speciation in Ammonia Solution

Application ID: 103951


Cupric ions show a strong affinity to ammonia in aqueous solutions, forming strongly colored deep blue complexes. The relative amounts of the different ammine ligand complexes, with varying coordination numbers, are governed by the stability constants of the equilibria forming the coordination compounds. By entering a series of equilibrium reactions, and an external source of ammonia, the Time Dependent study can be used to produce a speciation diagram, which shows how the concentration of the different complexes vary with the total concentration of added ammonia.
