Effect of deuteration on the thermal dehydration of lithium sulfate monohydrate

Effects of deuteration on the thermal stability, enthalpy change and kinetic parameters for the thermal dehydration of Li₂SO₄·H₂O were examined by means of TG and DSC. The enthalpy change for the monohydrate was smaller by 1.63±0.75 kJ/mol than that for the monodeuterate. The rate constant for the monohydrate was a little larger than that for the monodeuterate. However, the thermal stability, activation energy and frequency factor were practically unaffected by deuteration of the hydrate. It is suggested that the activation entropy as well as the activation energy should be considered in explaining the kinetic deuterium isotope effect in the thermal dehydration of Li₂SO₄·H₂O.

Zusammenfassung Die Wirkung der Deuterisierung auf die Thermostabilität, die Enthalpie-Änderungen und kinetischen Parameter der thermischen Dehydratisierung von Li₂SO₄·H₂O wurden durch TG und DSC untersucht. Die Enthalpie-Änderung für das Monohydrat wurde um 1.63±0.75 kJ/mol niedriger gefunden als für das Monodeuterat. Die Geschwindigkeitskonstante für das Monohydrat war etwas größer als für das Monodeuterat. Die Thermostabilität, die Aktivierungsenergie und der Frequenzfaktor wurden jedoch von der Deuterisierung des Hydrats praktisch nicht beeinflußt. Es wird vorgeschlagen, daß bei der Erklärung des kinetischen Deuterium-Isotop-Effekts bei der thermischen Dehydratisierung von Li₂SO₄·H₂O sowohl die Aktivierungsentropie als auch die Aktivierungsenergie berücksichtigt werden müssen.

Influence of the entropy factor on the equilibrium and kinetics of chemisorption

A correction to the model of uniform heterogeneous surface has been introduced. This correction extends the limits of application to processes with entropy changes of the adsorbent. On the basis of the model thus corrected a kinetic equation has been deduced, which takes into account the role of the entropy factor. The presence of a compensation effect in chemisorption kinetics is supported theoretically.

Electron spectroscopic investigation of oxygen desorption and dissolution in silver

The behavior of oxygen adsorbed on epitaxial silver films has been studied by electron spectroscopy in the temperature range of 110–610 K. A method is proposed for determining whether desorption or dissolution in the bulk of silver is responsible for the observed decrease of the surface adsorbate concentration. As found, at T=300 K adsorbed oxygen may readily diffuse into the bulk of silver.

In contrast with the well-known zirconium and titanium phosphates, products containing these metal ions together are unknown. To investigate the thermal behaviour of such materials, samples were synthetized with various ratios of the two metal ions. The samples were identified by means of X-ray diffraction.

Reactions of isoflavone and 2-hydroxyisoflavanone with sodium ethoxide in anhydrous ethanol

Recent observation /1,4/ on the existence and unreactivity of IV under basic conditions, as well as its part in the inhibitory effect on the decomposition into deoxybenzoin is unequivocally proved by comparing the decompositions of I and VI. It is also shown that the decomposition of I is detemined neither by the character of the solvent nor by the nucleophilic character of the reactant, but by the possibility of the formation of IV.
