Para-chlorobenzoylthioacetophenone is an organic ligand of monothio-β-diketone class.Stability constants of bivalent complexes of manganese, nickel, palladium and platinum atthree different temperatures were determined using Calvin-Bjerrum’s pH-metric technique asadopted by Irving and Rossotti. From the data of stability constant of the complexes obtained,standard changes in free energy at the said temperatures namely 283K, 293K and 303K weredetermined with the help of thermodynamic relation, ΔG° = −2.303 RT Log β. Standard changesin free energy contributing towards complex formation have been discussed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
