Notes:
   Table 1  a  The molalities were calculated by the compiler.
   Table 1  b  The solid phases are: A=Na2HPO4·12H2O; B=NaNH4HPO4·4H2O; C=(NH4)2HPO2.

Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
   Conventional measurements were made on aliquots of saturated solutions. The ammonium salt was determined gravimetrically as ammoniumtetraphenyl borate1 and the total salt content was determined by evaporation to constant weight in vacuum over H2SO4. The sodium salt was then estimated by difference. The composition of the eutonics was determined by an isopiestic method.2

Source and Purity of Materials:
   The AR grade phosphates were recrystallized once from water. The Na2HPO4 was dried at 105 °C. The (NH4)2HPO4 was dried in vacuum over sulfuric acid at room temperature.

Estimated Errors:
   Solubility: No information is given.
   Temperature: No information is given.
