Abstract
The extraction behavior of rubidium with a crown ether has been studied and methods for the separation and determination of rubidium have been developed. Rubidium was separated with tetraphenylborate from sample solution, and then quantitatively extracted into nitrobenzene by 18-crown-6 from 0.05 mol/l picric acid (pH 6) and back-extracted by 6 mol/l hydrochloric acid. Rubidium was determined by the neutron activation method in rock samples.
