“…Another heteropoly compound, tungstosilicic acid, was used as a precipitant for cesium (8,9,11). O'Leary and Papish (11) recommended it for the quantitative separation of cesium from rubidium, but because of the uncertain hydration of cesium tungstosilicate, cesium must be reprecipitated as the chloroplatinate before being weighed. In determining cesium radiometrically, Kahn (9) separated cesium by precipitation with tungstosilicic acid.…”
