POTENTIOMETRIC AND THERMODYNAMIC STUDY OF Ni(II) COMPLEXES OF THIOGLYCOLIC ACID IN 40% ACETONE MEDIUM

Nickel complexes of Thioglycolic acid have been investigated by potentiometric technique in 40% V/V acetone. It was found that nickel forms colourless 1:2 complexes. The stability constant of the compexes formed have been determined by applying Calvin and Melchior’s extension of Bjerrum’s method at three different temperature. The values of log K1, log K2 at 25º C, 30º C and 35º C have been found to be 8.08, 6.55, at 298 K, 8.28, 6.64 at 303 K, and 8.57, 6.87 at 308 K, in 40% acetone medium respectively. The values of overall changes in DG, DH and DS, at three different temperature accompanying the reaction have also been evaluated at 303 K and the values of DG1, DG2, DH, DS1, DS2 are found to be –48.03 KJ mol-1 –38.52 KJ mol–1 and –0.14360 KJ mol–1 +158.040 J/K, +126.654 J/K in 40% acetone medium.
