Solubility products and thermodynamic functions for the lanthanum fluoride-water systems. Progress report, March 1, 1985-April 20, 1986

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5816169
All of the work including the measurement of the solubility, solubility product and thermodynamic functions using conductometric, potentiometric and radiometric techniques on the first three systems have been completed. In addition, ''the equilibrium solubility model'' we have developed for complexation studies and included in our previous report has been tested with saturated solutions of labeled CeF/sub 3/ and LaF/sub 3/ containing excess of labeled lanthanons and fluoride. The radioisotopes used for this work as well as for the solubility studies are 32-d /sup 141/Ce and 40-h /sup 140/La, respectively. After the separation of the precipitate from the aqueous phase by centrifugation of saturated solutions, the total concentration of the lanthanon was measured radiometrically while that of free fluoride was determined using potentiometric technique. 2 refs., 3 figs., 4 tabs.
