The present investigation was an exploratory one. Its main purpose was to determine whether or not acetone was a useful phase in the solvent extraction and the separation of some inorganic compounds. Lee (1) bas pointed out that acetone and a concentrated aqueous solution of calcium chloride constitute an unexplored but very interesting system for solvant extraction. This was the-system chosen for study. The investigation consisted in finding the affect of the concentration of calcium chloride and hydrochloric acid on the distribution ratios of metal chlorides and oxyacids. It is worth noting that the avaiàbility and relatively low cost of acetone and calcium chloride suggest that analytical separations might also have potential industrial applications. [...]
