Hello,
I've used and enjoyed Kohlrausch's solution for many a year, but now I have none
and need to make it. I've never done it before. The refs say dissolve
3% PtCl2 and 0.25% PbAc in 0.025N HCl. The PtCl2 sank to the bottom and didn't
seem at all interested in dissolving. I then went to the Merrick Index, which
states that PtCl2 is insol. in water, which I had just empirically proved.
I'm a tad confused. If you are familliar with Kohlrausch's could you drop me a
line clarifying how it is made?
Thanks very much.
Patrick
