Abstract: | The atomization energies, ΔHo,at0, of the molecules LuAu2, HoAu2 and TbAu2 were determined by means of high-temperature Kundsen-cell mass spectrometry as 143.9 ± 8, 131.1 ± 8 and 143.3 ± 8 kcal mole−1, respectively.The measured atomization energies suggest the structure AuLnAu. They agree with the values calculated after the Pauling model by assuming two polar single bonds. The remaining rare-earth metals are also expected to form stable diaurides with atomization energies similar to those calculated after the Pauling model. |
