Conclusions
-
1.
Solutions of crown ether DCH18C6 in chloroform and 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane efficiently extract metal nitrates (M=K, Rb, Cs, Sr, Ba) from aqueous alkaline solution with 0.5 to 4.0 M hydroxide ion in the presence of 1 to 10 mg/ml of LiNO3 as salting-out agent.
-
2.
In the extraction of nitrates from alkaline solution the sequence of cation extractibility changes in the alkali-metal series: K > Rb > Cs ≈ Na > Li; and in the alkaline-earth series: Sr > Ba > Ca > Mg. This sequence can be used for efficient intragroup separation of these metals.
-
3.
In the extraction of potassium salts by DCH18C6 the extractibility of the anions increases in the sequence SO4 2− < Cl− ≪< Br− < I− < NO[in3], and is determined by the change in anion hydration.
