Models were proposed for the physicochemical state of heterogeneous solutions of the system CsCl-CuCl/sub 2/-H/sub 2/O and the chemistry of the crystallization of solid phases of the system. The interaction of saturated solutions of CsCl and CuCl/sub 2/ is accompanied by the formation of aquachloride copper complexes of different composition and structure and also chloride copper complexes, characteristic of the structure of a growing crystal. The effect of the structural state of the solutions on the crystal growth was studied. By appropriately choosing the optimal conditions for crystal growth from the solubility diagrams, changing the pH of the solutions, and disordering of the structural state of the crystallizing solutions, it is possible to affect the chemistry of the crystallization processes.
