Original Measurements
Portnova, S. M.; Krassilov, Yu. I.; Kuznetzov, N. T.; Balakaeva, I. V.; Zh. Neorg. Khim. 35, 237-41 (1990).
Variables:
Room Temp: Composition at 25 °C
Prepared by:
St. Trendafilova, Chr. Balarew
Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
The isothermal method was used. One month was allowed for equilibration. The $\ce{Y^{3+}}$ and $\ce{Co^{2+}}$ contents were determined complexometrically using diethyldithiocarbamate [1]. The composition of the solid phases was determined by the Schreinemakers method.
Source and Purity of Materials:
- The formates were obtained by neutralizing dilute formic acid with p.a. grade $\ce{Y(OH)3}$ and basic cobalt carbonate.
Estimated Errors:
Ambient temperature: No information given.
Mass concentration (m/v) (1): No information given.
