Fascinating magnetic properties of the compounds of Ag(2+), a heavier congener of Cu(2+)
Compounds of Cu(2+) are common in chemistry and best characterized among chemical connections of all transition metals; their crystal structuresand magnetic properties are well studied, indeed.However, physicochemical properties of rare and exotic compounds ofdivalent silver, Ag(2+), are less known. The lecturer will review thecrystal structures and magnetic properties for a handful of importantcompounds of Ag(2+) with emphasis on unusually strong magneticsuperexchange in selected systems.
