Notes:
   Table 1  a  These values were calculated by the compiler.
   Table 1  b  The solid phases are: A=CO(NH2)2·H3PO4; B=NH4H2PO4.

Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
   Mixtures of the components were stirred vigorously and allowed to equilibrate for 15 hrs to 25 hrs. The equilibrium was checked by repeated analysis of the liquid phase. PO43– content was determined by precipitation titration with La(NO3)3 using Chromazurol S as indicator; NH4+ was determined, after removal of phosphate ions, with the aid of anion exchange resin by formol tritration. Urea was determined gravimetrically as dixanthedrylurea or after enzyme decomposition as NH3. The composition of the solid phases was determined by the method of Schreinemakers.

Source and Purity of Materials:
   The ammonium phosphate was recrystallized several times before use. The urea phosphate was synthesized from urea and an equivalent amount of phosphoric acid and recrystallized several times.

Estimated Errors:
   Solubility: No information is given.
   Temperature: The temperature was kept constant to within ±0.05 K.
