The solution behavior of zinc chloride in water has intrigued physical chemists for a long time. The thermodynamic, structural, and transport properties of that system are essentially different from those of alkaline-earth halideand transition-metal halide aqueous solutions. 1™ 3 No satisfactory explanation has so far been found. Evidence suggests that in dilute aqueous solution ZnCl2 is completely dissociated but that in more concentrated solutions ion complex structures exist. The concentration at which the system changes its behavior, however, depends on the property considered. For example, plots of the cationic transference number as a function of solute concentration show an abrupt change in slope at 0.5 mol/L zinc chloride. 1 Analysis of the activity coefficients of ZnCl2 and ZnBr2 solutions suggests that new complex structures are formed at concentrations above about 0.3 m. 2 From conductance and viscosity data Weingártner et al. 3 concluded that ZnCl2should be completely dissociated below 0.1 mol/L but that complex formation occurs rather suddenly above that concentration. These authors stated that ionic diffusion coefficients in aqueous ZnCl2 solutions point to the existence of zinc chloride complexes even below 0.1 mol/L.
