Popis: A solubility model is presented for ferrous iron hydroxide (Fe(OH)2(s)), hibbingite (Fe2Cl(OH)3(s)), siderite (FeCO3(s)), and chukanovite (Fe2CO3(OH)2(s)). The Pitzer activity coefficient equation was utilized in developing the model to account for the excess free energies of aqueous species in the background solutions of high ionic strength. Solubility limiting minerals were analyzed before and after experiments using X-ray diffraction. Formation of Fe(OH)2(s) was observed in the experiments that were initiated with Fe2Cl(OH)3(s) in Na2SO4 solution. Coexistence of siderite and chukanovite was observed in the experiments in Na2CO3 + NaCl solutions. Two equilibrium constants that had been reported by us for the dissolution of Fe(OH)2(s) and Fe2Cl(OH)3(s) (Nemer et al.) were rederived in this paper, using newer thermodynamic data selected from the literature to maintain internal consistency of the series of our data analyses in preparation, including this paper. Three additional equilibrium constants for th...
