Reaktionsschritte

7 g of zirconium metal is dissolved in concentrated nitric acid (by HF treatment). Ammonia solution is added to this to precipitate zirconium as its hydroxide. The precipitate is washed with distilled water till it is free from fluoride ions and then dissolved in dilute nitric acid (1 volume of 69% acid mixed with 3 volumes of distilled water) to obtain zirconium nitrate solution.
