Prepared by:
Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
The isothermal method was used. The methods of analysis are not described. The composition of the solid phases was determined by the Schreinemakers method.
Source and Purity of Materials:
- The salt was prepared from pure formic acid and strontium carbonate or hydroxide; purity is not specified. Commercial formic acid was used.
Estimated Errors:
Ambient temperature: The temperature was controlled to within ±0.01°C. Nothing is said about the solubility values.
Mass concentration (m/v) (1): No information is given.
