The thermodynamic characteristics of vaporization of praseodymium triiodide

The vaporization of praseodymium triiodide was studied by high-temperature mass spectrometry. Monomeric (PrI₃) and dimeric (Pr₂I₆) molecules and the PrI ₄ ^? and Pr₂I ₇ ^? negative ions were recorded in saturated vapor over the temperature range 842–1048 K.

The equilibrium constants of ion-molecular reactions were measured and the enthalpies of the reactions determined. The enthalpies of formation Δ_f H ^o(298.15 K) of molecules and ions in the gas phase were calculated (?373 ± 11, ?929 ± 31, ?865 ± 25, and ?1433 ± 48 kJ/mol for PrI₃, Pr₂I₆, PrI ₄ ^? , and Pr₂I ₇ ^? , respectively).     

Standard enthalpy of formation of platinum hydrous oxide

Standard enthalpies of formation of amorphous platinum hydrous oxide PtH_2.76O_3.89 (Adams' catalyst) and dehydrated oxide PtO_2.52 at T=298.15 K were determined to be -519.6±1.0 and -101.3 ±5.2 kJ mol^-1, respectively, by micro-combustion calorimetry. Standard enthalpy of formation of anhydrous PtO₂ was estimated to be -80 kJ mol^-1 based on the calorimetry. A meaningful linear relationship was found between the pseudo-atomization enthalpies of platinum oxides and the coordination number of oxygen surrounding platinum. This relationship indicates that the Pt-O bond dissociation energy is 246 kJ mol^-1 at T=298.15 K which is surprisingly independent of both the coordination number and the valence of platinum atom. This may provide an energetic reason why platinum hydrous oxide is non-stoichiometric. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.
