Abstract
The stability ranges of the various oxidation states of titanium ions infused alkali chlorides were studied by electrochemical techniques. T he thermodynamic properties of solutions were calculated and the Gibbs energy of formation of titanium solutions was determined. The presenc e of strong donors of chloride ions such as cesium chloride enhances t he stability of the high oxidation states. The results are interpreted in terms of formation of chlorocomplexes.
