Abstract: | Liquid-liquid distribution of all 15 elements in the lanthanum series has been studied using di(2-ethylhexyl) phosphoric acid and tri-n-butylphosphate in n-octane and Adogen 464 in 10% n-octanol-90% n-octane as organic phases and 1 M ammonium thiocyanate as aqueous phase. Appropriate radioactive isotopes of the elements were used as indicators in the determination of the distributions. The great variation in the shape of the curves for separation factors vs atomic number, Z, is discussed in terms of ionic radius, coordination or solvation numbers and the nephelauxetic ratio change as visualized in the Siekierski-effect. |
