Abstract

The structure of K3H(SO4)2 is found to be monoclinic with space group C2/c based on analogy of the powder X-ray diffraction pattern with that of the Rb3H(SO4)2. The lattice parameters are a=14.6984(7), b=5.6840(2), c=9.7834(5) Å, and β=103.004(5)°, Vol=796.39(5); Dx=2.589 gcm−3, Z=4, and I/Icor=1.30.
