抄録

The phenomenon of periodic precipitation has been subjected to calculations based on the diffusion-plus-supersaturation model first proposed by Ostwald. The mathematical difficulty caused by an infinite density of Liesegang rings at the original junction between the two solutions is avoided by the introduction of a thin ``clear'' zone which is supposed to be initially free of reactants. A further simplification results from assuming that one of the reactants is present in considerable excess, so that its diffusion remains essentially unaffected by the precipitation. Calculations show that the ratio between the distances from the initial boundary of two successive rings rapidly approaches a constant value, in agreement with experiment. Results have been obtained for the case where both reactants have the same diffusion coefficient.
