K-Ta mixed oxides photocatalysts have been prepared by impregnation followed by calcination. The influence of the reaction temperature (450°C–900°C) on the phase formation, crystal morphology, and photocatalytic activity in hydrogen generation of the produced materials was investigated. The detailed analysis has revealed that all products exhibit high crystallinity and irregular structure. Moreover, two different crystal structures of potassium tantalates such as KTaO3and K2Ta4O11were obtained. It was also found that the sample composed of KTaO3and traces of unreacted Ta2O5(annealed at 600°C) exhibits the highest activity in the reaction of photocatalytic hydrogen generation. The crystallographic phases, optical and vibronic properties were examined by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and diffuse reflectance (DR) UV-vis and resonance Raman spectroscopic methods, respectively. Morphology and chemical composition of the produced samples were studied using a high-resolution transmission electron microscope (HR-TEM) and an energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer (EDX) as its mode.

Rb[(Zr6C)Cl15] was prepared by heating ZrCl4, Zr powder, RbCl and Al4C3 at 850 °C for 21 days. The crystal structure was determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction (space group Pmma, a = 18.484(3), b = 18.962(2), c = 9.708(1) Å, V = 2505.4(6) Å3, and Z = 4). Rb[(Zr6C)Cl15] crystallises in the Cs[Nb6Cl15]-type structure. It is built up from two interconnected types of cluster chains, one with linear Zr−Cla−a-Zr bridges, the other one with bent bridges. The rubidium cations are spread over three different sites within the cluster network which differs significantly from the cation distribution in the comparable potassium and caesium phases. The cation distribution can be rationalised considering the size of the cavities and the Coulombic interactions.

Abstract Raman and X-ray scattering experiments have been performed on an aqueous zinc (II) bromide solution with molar ratio [ H2 0] / [ ZnBr2 ] =10 at 25 to 140 °C. The intensity of the totally symmetric Zn - Br stretching vibration (ν1) for the dibromozinc(II) complex increased with increasing temperature while that for the tetrabromo complex decreased. A broad band assigned to the symmetric Zn - O stretching vibration ( ν1 ) for the aqua zinc (II) ion decreased in intensity with increasing temperature. The X-ray diffraction data revealed that the average number of the Zn - Br interactions within the zinc (II) bromo complexes does not change with temperature, whereas the number of Br ··· Br nonbonding interactions within the complexes decreases from 1.8 at 25 °C to 1.5 at 100 °C. From both Raman and X-ray data it is concluded that with increasing temperature the dibromo species is favored, whereas the tetrabromo and aqua zinc(II) species are unstable in the solution. The analysis of the X-ray diffraction data has shown that the mean Zn - Br bond length within the zinc (II) bromo complexes shortens gradually with increasing temperature, accompanied with an increase in the interligand Br ···Br distance. This finding suggests that the Br - Zn - Br bond angle increases with decreasing Zn - Br distance for the lower zinc(II) bromo complexes. The equilibrium shift of the zinc (II) bromo complexes with temperature is discussed on the basis of ion-ion, ion-water, and water-water interactions
