Abstract
Magnesium ions (Mg++) were shown to constitute a substantial percentage of the total exchangeable cations in acidified clay samples from various sources. This finding helps in solving several problems of long standing in the fields of soil chemistry, soil formation, and geochemical weathering.This publication has 4 references indexed in Scilit:
