1、17.Eh - pH - DIAGRAMS (Pourbaix-diagrams)Eh-pH-diagrams show the thermodynamic stability areas of different species in an aqueous solution. Stability areas are presented as a function of pH and electrochemical potential scales. Usually the upper and lower stability limits of water are also shown in

However, in most handbooks these diagrams are available only for a limited number of temperatures, concentrations and element combinations.Eh-pH图显示不一样物种在水溶液中热力学稳定区。稳定地域作为一个潜在尺度和电化学作用pH值。通常上、水下稳定极
3、限也和虚线图所表示。传统上,这些图已从不一样handbooks12。然而,在大多数手册这些图是只有数量有限温度,浓度和元素组合。The Eh-pH module of HSC Chemistry allows the construction of diagrams in a highly flexible and fast way, because the user can draw the diagrams exactly at the selected temperature and concentration.HSC化学Eh-pH模块许可在一个高度灵活和快速方法图解,因为用户能够画出图

The system tends to remove electrons from the species when the potential is high (Eh 0). These conditions may exist near the anode in the elect

In reducing conditions, when potential is low (Eh 0)。这些条件可能存在在电化学电池阳极,但也能够和部分氧化剂(H2O2生成Cu +铜+ H2O =)。在还原条件下,当为低电位(Eh0),该系统能够提供电子物种,比如,和阴极电极或和还原剂。The pH of the system describes its ability to supply protons

In acid conditions (pH 7) the concentration of protons is low.pH值系统描述其提供质子能力(H(+)种类。在酸性条件下(pH7)质子浓度较高,在碱性条件下(pH7)质子浓度低。Usually a large amount of different species exist simultaneously in the aqueous mixtures in fixed Eh-pH-conditions. The Pourbaix diagrams simplify this situa

These reactions may be
12、 divided into three groups according to reaction types:图中线也能够用化学反应方程式。这些反应可分为三组,依据反应类型:1.Horizontal lines. These lines represent reactions that are involved with electrons, but are independent of pH. Neither H(+a)-ions nor OH(-a)-ions participate to these reactions.1水平线。这些线代表反应,包含电子,但独立博士没有H(+)离子和OH
13、(-)-离子参与反应。2.Diagonal lines with either positive or negative slope. These lines represent reactions that are involved with both electrons and H(+a)-and OH(-a)-ions.2。对角线或正或负斜率。这些线代表反应,包含电子和H(+)和(-)-离子哦。3.Vertical lines. These lines represent reactions that are involved either with H(+a)- or OH(-a)-i

In other words, electrons do not participate with these reactions.3垂直线。这些线代表反应,可能和H(+)或(-)-离子哦,但独立啊。换句话说,电子不参与这些反应。The chemical stability area of the water is shown in the Eh-pH-diagrams with dotted lines. The upper stability limit of water is based on the potential w

However, these diagrams may offer ex
