This work is an experimental and theoretical study of antimony speciation and the solubility of Sb 2 O 5 , Sb 2 O 3 and Sb 2 (SO 4 ) 3 at 298 K in aqueous sulphuric acid solutions (0 to 6 kmol/m 3 ). A thermodynamic model was developed to quantify the solubility products and aqueous metal speciation. Main dissolved species were H 3 SbO 3(aq) and H 3 SbO 4(aq) . The solubility of antimony increases with increasing solution acidity and with the presence of hydrogen peroxide in the solution. The following standard equilibrium constants at 298 K were obtained: Log K 0 (Sb2O5) = 11.7±0.5, Log K 0 (Sb2O3) = 32±1, and Log K 0 (Sb2(SO4)3) = 55±2.
