“…The sulphide concentration ranged between 3 and 8.4 x 10 -5 mmol m -3 with two peaks, at 4 m depth and in the bottom layer. Transparency was low and the water colour was white-yellowish, probably due to formed polysulphides (Rosen and Tegman, 1971). Oxygen saturation in the water column was zero, except in the surface layer (down to 1 m depth) where the value of 5% was recorded (Fig.…”

“…The power supply was then turned off, and the potential across the cell was monitored with time and recorded every 10 minutes using two buffer amplifiers and a 19 multimeter. The buffer amplifiers were unity-gain devices with input impedances greater than 10 12 ohms.…”
The method of restricted diffusion has been applied to sodium polysulfide melts in order to determine differential diffusion coefficients spanning the composition range of the single‐phase liquid region

, at temperatures between 300° and 350°C. Molybdenum electrodes at the ends of the cell gave open‐circuit potentials in response to the transient concentration difference. The shape of the potential vs. time plots showed the expected dependence on the initial concentration profile. The following expression summarizes the experimental dataD=0.0153exp)(−5890/Texp)(5.30xnormale cm2/normals ][1The diffusion coefficients showed a temperature dependence in harmony with viscosity data, but not conductivity data.
“…The X-ray powder diffraction patterns of some of the crystalline compounds have been reported by Rosen (1971) 71 Other properties of polysulfides relevant to the present study include the following: The polysulfides are reported to be hygroscopic and readily oxidized in air; the hydrolysis rates decrease in the order Na 2 S > Na 2 S 2 > Na 2 S 4 > Na 2 S 5 and they form insoluble precipitates with mercury, lead, cadmium, chromium and copper in aqueous solution. ,…”
