Here is what Hoke states: In another vessel, dissolve in warm water about a pound of green. copperas for each 50 pennyweight of fine gold that you expect to. recover. Use fresh green copperas, with about a quart of water to a. pound. Add a little hydrochloric acid, enough to make the copperas. solution a clear green.

I didn't realize sodium bisulfite was no more selective than other precipitants for gold. I have read many sources singing the praises …
If you want to leach gold you need an oxidizing environment (add chlorine gas or clorox) until you reach an ORP of 1000mV, at a Ph of about 5, hopefully warm temperature and you will leach gold. Once in solution, separate liquid from solids, reduce the ORP to 100 -500 mV using NaHSO3 and your gold will precipitate.
Decatur,Ala. Jul 15, 2012. #2. it depends on the amount of gold in solution. estimate how much weight in gold you have and add 1.5 times the weight of SMB in a clean container and add enough water to dissolve it all. add the SMB and water to your solution and stir. D.
Several of the metal chloride will react in a similar manner. NaCl + H2SO4 --> NaHSO4 + HCl. Now to the question, sodium bisulfate will not precipitate gold from solution. We can use sodium sulfite Na2SO3 to precipitate gold from a gold chloride …
Reduction of this solution by sodium metabisulfite yields metallic gold of 97.04% purity (Supplementary Table 4).
Never evil said: Sodium Bisulfite $9.99 64oz at Wal-Mart. I've seen sodium bisulfate in the pool section sold as a ph increaser. I think Never evil is referencing sodium bisulfate, which will not precipitate gold. I don't know of a use for sodium bisulfate. Please correct me if I am wrong.

Pacific NW. Jan 30, 2013. #2. Here are a few ways to generate sulfur dioxide gas: You can just burn sulfur (without air) to make sulfur dioxide gas SO2; a generator could be made from pluming pipe, or some other metal container. S8 +8O2 -->8SO2 (g) High heating sodium metabisulfite (sulfur is cheaper) Na2S2O5 --HEAT --> Na2O + 2SO2 (g) …
Very true. For years, almost daily, I used hydrazine sulfate to drop the gold from a so-called "reverse AR" solution - 50% HNO3, 3-5% HCl, remainder tap water - @ room temp. Dropped all the gold, with no HNO3 treatment required, with very little Hydrazine sulfate. Hydrazine hydrate would have worked as well.
Nov 2, 2011. #6. Sulfite SO3. Sulfate SO4. Both contain sulfur and oxygen, the ending number gives the oxygen, one will make SO2 gas in water the other will not, the SO2gas what precipitates the gold from solution. Sulfates can be used like sulfuric acid is. Na2S2O5 sodium metabisulfite, some other names or similar chemical.
This is a mini tutorial showing the action of sodium meta bisulfite on Auric Chloride ( dissolved gold). The auric chloride used in this video was from my other posts on inquarting. The brown powder was dissolved into HCl-Cl as a final purification step. It took 5 washes of HCl-Cl to dissolve the approximately 11 grams of brown powder.
Sodium thiosulfate, can be made boiling sodium sulfite Na2SO3 and sulfur together, Na2S2O3 sodium thiosulfate is used in photography to dissolve unreacted silver halide from film. Sodium thiosulfate is also used to leach gold and silver from ores. Usually as ammonium thiosulfate and copper sulfate basic PH.
Sodium metabisulfite (also known as sodium bisulfite) is an affordable and effective selective precipitant for gold. This chemical can recover up to 99.95% of pure gold when the precipitated gold is thoroughly rinsed. It works well even at room temperature. This product has a chemical grade purity of 99.98%. Proper ventilation is required.

The other way is with scrap iron and S.Acid. I then switched to SMB as it was easier to purchase and cleaner from Home Brew Shops. The breakdown for use is 110 grams of SMB in one litre of water for every 60 grams of gold you want to recover. It's best to try the prepared solutions in small amounts if gold content is not known.
If liquid is yellow, and gold in solution (stannous chloride test), try sodium bi sulfite, should smell SO2 gas (rotten eggs), liquid may turn brown, and gold will make brown salt let settle, remove liquid without moving powder. If all everything fails, and gold is in acid water, use piece of copper to cement replace gold, brush off copper, let ...
Sulfurdioxide, SO2, is a toxic irritant gas, fairly well soluble in water, giving an aqueous solution of sulfurous acid, H2SO3: SO2 + H2O => H2SO3. The acid is stable only in diluted aqueous solution and decomposes easily back into it's constituents, SO2 and water. It has two reactive protons...
OK sodium bisulfate wont work at all (understood).The stupm out I will look for.Only sodium metabisulfite works (understood).I am sure I wouldnt be able to get hydrasine I herard thats the best.I have oxalic for the last precip if I choose to use it.I still might just give up 30% of the yeild...

Either SMB or Sodium Sulfite, or even sulfur dioxide gas will work fine for reducing gold in HCl-Cl solutions. When highly concentrated the solution will lean towards deep orange to deep red when highly concentrated. I use dry SMB exclusively now days and never have had to heat the solution to get the gold to drop.
Solutions of sodium bisulfate are acid, with a 1M solution having pH of 1.4. In some applications, such solutions can be used instead of sulfuric acid solution. For example, from a solution of sodium bisulfate and sodium acetate it is possible to distill acetic acid. Sodium bisulfate solutions will also liberate CO2 from most carbonates.

Jan 11, 2008. #2. Sodium metaBISULFITE, not sulfate. Only the sulfites will generate SO2, which is what precipitates the Gold. It shouldn't make much difference if it is the Potassium or Sodium salt, because it's the Sulfite that does the work. The Sodium or Potassium ions are just spectator ions and don't take part in the reaction.
The equation for the SO2 gas with Gold III Chloride is : 3SO2 + 2AuCl3 + 3H2O = 3SO3 + 6HCl + 2Au This reaction only occurs as a step in the overall process or if you combined sulfites with water or acid: Sodium Sulfite with water to Sodium Bisulfite: Na2SO3 + H2O = 2NaHSO3 Sodium Bisulfite with AuCl3 to Sodium Bisulfate: …
I get potassium metabisulfite from the grocery store in the winemaking section. Works the same as sodium metabisulfite. Its labeled as potassium metabisulfite, with no other ingredients, but I don't know if its pure.
