Notes:
   a  The solid phases are: A = Sr(CHO2)2•2H2O; B = Sr(CHO2)2•H2O.

Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
   The isothermal method was used. The thermometer was graduated in tenths of a degree C. The strontium content was determined gravimetrically as SrSO4.

Source and Purity of Materials:
   Strontium formate was prepared by the reaction of the carbonate with formic acid.

Estimated Errors:

   Temperature: The temperature was controlled to within ±0.02 °C.See note under Experimental Values.
