Thermodynamic properties of o-semiquinonato complexes of cobalt, nickel, and copper in the range T → 0 to 350 K

The heat capacity of bis(3,6-di-tert-butyl-o-benzosemiquinonato)copper, (triethylarsine)bis(3,6-di-tert-butyl-o-benzosemiquinonato)nickel, and (triphenylphosphine)bis(3,6-di-tert-butyl-o-benzosemiquinonato)cobalt was determined in the range of 0 to 350 K by precision adiabatic vacuum calorimetry. The temperature dependences of magnetic moments were studied for the last two complexes. The G-transition in nickel complex, which is presumably caused by a loosening of the molecular degrees of freedom, was determined. The standard thermodynamic functions of complexes were calculated according to the obtained data: C _p ^○ , H○(T)-H○(0), S○(T), and G○(T)-H○(0) for the range of T → 0 to 350 K. It was concluded that our analysis of low-temperature heat capacity based on the Debye theory of the heat capacity of solids and the multifractal model confirms the chain-layer topologies of the structures of the investigated complexes.     

Thermodynamic properties of o-semiquinone complex of Co with Di-(2-pyridyl)amine in the temperature range T → 0 to 370 K

The heat capacity of di-(2-pyridyl)amine-bis-(4-methoxy-3,6-di-tert-butyl-o-benzosemiquinone)cobalt in the temperature range from 7 to 370 K was investigated by means of precise adiabatic vacuum calorimetry. It was established that the phase transition associated with the redox-isomeric transformation of the semiquinone-catecholate form of the complex into the bis-semiquinone form is observed above 260 K; this transition is not completed due to thermal destruction that begins at 367 K. The magnetic moment values in the temperature range from 5 to 350 K and the EPR spectra in the temperature range from 130 to 290 K, which confirm the nature of the phase transition, were obtained for the investigated complex. The standard thermodynamic functions C _p ^pO (T), H○(T)-H○(0), S○(T), and G○(T)-H○(0), were calculated from the data on heat capacity in the temperature range from T → 0 to 260 K. Analysis of the low temperature heat capacity on the basis of Debye’s theory of the heat capacity of solids and the multifractional model testifies to the chain-layered structural topology of the investigated complex.     

Thermodynamic properties of crystalline polymeric C60 phases in the temperature region from O → 0 to 340 E

The temperature dependences of the heat capacity C _p° = f(T) were studied in an adiabatic vacuum calorimeter for the orthorhombic, tetragonal, and rhombohedral polymeric C₆₀ phases in the 7—340 K temperature interval with an error of 0.2%. Comparative analysis of C _p° of these phases formed by stacking of one-dimensional and two types of two-dimensional polyfullerenes C₆₀, was performed, and their fractal dimensionalities D were determined for temperatures below 50 K. The thermodynamic functions of the crystalline polymeric C₆₀ phases were calculated in the temperature region from O 0 to 340 K: C _p°(T), H°(T) — H°(0), S°(T) — S°(0), and G°(T) — H°(0). Assuming that S°(0) = 0, the standard entropies of formation _f S° of these phases from graphite at T = 298.15 K and standard pressure were calculated. In addition, the entropies of transformation of the initial face-centered cubic phase of fullerite C₆₀ in the crystalline polymeric C₆₀ phases and entropies of their interconversions under the same conditions were estimated. The thermodynamic characteristics of the polymeric C₆₀ phases were reviewed.     

Thermodynamic properties of tetraphenylphosphonium perchlorate and tetraphenylarsonium perchlorate fromT → 0 toT = 340 K

The temperature dependence of the standard molar heat capacity C_{p, m}^oof samples of crystalline tetraphenylphosphonium perchlorate and tetraphenylarsonium perchlorate was measured in an adiabatic low-pressure calorimeter between T =  4.8 K and T =  340 K and from T =  5.8 K to T =  340 K, respectively, mostly to within a precision of 0.2 per cent. For tetraphenylphosphonium perchlorate, an anomalous change of the heat capacity in the range T =  125 K to T =  185 K, probably arising from the excitation of hindered rotations of atomic groups, was found and its thermodynamic characteristics were determined. No such anomaly was observed for tetraphenylarsonium perchlorate. The data obtained were used to calculate the thermodynamic functions C_{p, m}^o(T) / R, Δ₀^TH_m^o / R·K, Δ₀^TS_m^o / R, and Φ_m^o = Δ₀^TS_m^o − Δ₀^TH_m^o / T(where R is the universal gas constant) of the compounds between T →  0 and T =  340 K.

Volumetric properties of the water-ethylene glycol mixtures in the temperature range 278–333.15 K at atmospheric pressure

Density of the water-ethylene glycol binary mixtures was measured in the entire range of compositions in the temperature range 278–333.15 K (6 values) at atmospheric pressure using a vibration densimeter. Mixtures with low concentrations of ethylene glycol were studied at 15 temperatures in the range of 274–333.15 K. Excess molar volumes V _m ^E , the partial molar volumes of water -V ₁ and ethylene glycol, -V ₂, the coefficients of thermal volume expansion α of the mixture, the partial molar volume coefficients of thermal expansion of water $ \bar V_1 $ \bar V_1 and ethylene $ \bar V_2 $ \bar V_2 were calculated. Excess molar volumes were described using the Redlich-Kister equation. The density ρ of the mixture was found to increase with the increasing ethylene glycol concentration at all temperatures, but at low content of ethylene glycol the dependence ρ = f(T) of the mixture at ∼276.5 K passed through a maximum. The coefficient α increases sharply in the composition range 0 < x < 0.2, in the range 0.5 < x <1 remains almost unchanged, and at T > 277 K is positive for all compositions. The dependences $ \bar \alpha _1 $ \bar \alpha _1 = f (x) and $ \bar \alpha _2 $ \bar \alpha _2 = f (x) are complex in whole temperature range and are characterized by the presence of an extremum. V _m ^E values are negative at all temperatures, and upon increase in the temperature the deviation from ideality decreases (x is the mole fraction of ethylene glycol).

Thermodynamic properties of water in the lattice gas model with сonsideration of the vibrational motions of molecules

A molecular model developed earlier for a polar fluid within the lattice gas model is supplemented by considering the vibrational motions of molecules using water as an example. A combination of point dipole and Lennard-Jones potentials from SPC parametrization is chosen as the force field model for the molecule. The main thermodynamic properties of liquid water (density, internal energy, and entropy) are studied as functions of temperature. There is qualitative agreement between the calculation results and the experimental data. Ways of refining the molecular theory are discussed.
