Description

A gravimetric method was standardised for the determination of sodium content in cryolite sample based on the precipitation of sodium as sodium zinc uranyl acetate. The conditions were established for the quantitative recovery of sodium and the effects of aluminium and fluoride were studied using 24Na tracer std. NaCl solutions. Sodium was determined in two commercial cryolite samples with a precision of about 1 per cent. (author)
