From the pH 上 in the above table, we can see the following rules:
(1) The order of stability of the metal oxide in the acidic solution is: Sn0 2 >Cu 2 0>Fe 2 0 3 >Ga 2 0 3 >Fe 3 0 4 >In 2 0 3 >Cu0>Zn0>NiO> Coo>CdO>MnO. Since iron oxide is difficult to dissolve, separation of Mn, Cd, Co, Ni, Zn, Cu and iron can be achieved under normal pressure at a temperature of 25 to 100 ° C and a pH of 1 to 1.5.
(2) The order of stability of the ferrite in the metal in an acidic solution is:

Zn0·Fe 2 0 3 >NiO·Fe 2 0 3 >CoO·Fe 2 0 3 >Cu0·Fe 2 0 3

(3) The order of stability of the metal arsenate in an acidic solution is:

FeAs0 4 >Cu 3 (As0 4 ) 2 >Co 3 (As0 4 ) 2 >Zn 3 (As0 4 ) 2

(4) The order of stability of the metal silicate in an acidic solution is:

PbSi0 3 >FeSi0 3 >ZnSi0 3

(5) The order of stability of metal compounds such as zinc , copper , and diamonds is:

Ferrite>silicate>arsenate>oxide

(6) The pH of all oxides, ferrites, and arsenates. Both decrease with increasing temperature, which requires leaching at higher acidity.
Study on the leaching thermodynamics of zinc sulfide concentrates . The reaction of zinc sulfide (ZnS) and other metal sulfides in aqueous solution, what kind of substance will be formed at a certain pH and a certain potential, E-pH diagram can be used to study the reaction of MeS in aqueous solution. Thermodynamic law.
The main reaction equilibrium and E-pH diagrams in the ZnS-H 2 0 system are shown in the table below. [next]

The ZnS-H 20 O-pH diagram (bottom) can be drawn from the equilibrium in the table.
It can be seen from the figure that there is a stable region of elemental sulfur. When the potential drops, pH value in the range 1.9-8, SO 4 2- reduced to elemental sulfur, and further reduced when the potential of pH <7, is further reduced to H 2 S, pH> further reduced to the HS when 7-- .
When the potential is raised, at pH<8, both H 2 S and HS − are oxidized to elemental sulfur S and then oxidized to SO 4 2- . At pH >8, HS − can be directly oxidized to SO 4 2- .
