Low-temperature heat capacities and standard molar enthalpy of formation of pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid

This paper reports that the low-temperature heat capacities of pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid were measured by a precision automatic calorimeter over a temperature range from 78~K to 380~K. A polynomial equation of heat capacities as a function of temperature was fitted by the least-squares method. Based on the fitted polynomial, the smoothed heat capacities and thermodynamic functions of the compound relative to the standard reference temperature 298.15~K were calculated and tabulated at intervals of 5~K. The constant-volume energy of combustion of the compound was determined by means of a precision rotating-bomb combustion calorimeter. The standard molar enthalpy of combustion of the compound was derived from the constant-volume energy of combustion. The standard molar enthalpy of formation of the compound was calculated from a combination of the datum of the standard molar enthalpy of combustion of the compound with other auxiliary thermodynamic quantities through a Hess thermochemical cycle.

This paper reports that low-temperature heat capacities of N-methylnorephedrine C11H17NO（s） have been measured by a precision automated adiabatic calorimeter over the temperature range from T=78K to T=400K.

The standard molar enthalpy of combustion of the sample was calculated. The standard molar enthalpy of formation of the compound was determined from the combustion enthalpy and other auxiliary thermodynamic data through a Hess thermochemical cycle.

This paper reports that low-temperature heat capacities of 4-（2-aminoethyl）-phenol （C8H11NO） are measured by a precision automated adiabatic calorimeter over the temperature range from 78 to 400 K. A polynomial equation of heat capacities as a function of the temperature was fitted by the least square method.

Radiative lifetime measurements of odd-parity high-excited levels of Sn I by time-resolved laser spectroscopy

Natural radiative lifetimes of five higher-lying odd-parity levels 5p7s ³P₁^o, 5p5d ¹P₁^o, 5p6d ³F₂^o, ³D₁^o and ³F₃^o in neutral tin are measured by the time-resolved laser-induced fluorescence (TR-LIF) technique and the atomic beam method. All these lifetimes are not longer than 100 ns and they are found to be shorter than the lifetimes of even-parity levels in the same energy region. The results reported in this paper provide important transition parameters for highly-excited atomic Sn, which may be useful for theoretically calculating excited heavy atoms.

An investigation on the magneto-optic properties of terbium gallium garnet under high magnetic field

The superexchange interaction on a magnetic ion may be represented by an effective field H_m = $\lambda$M in some paramagnetic materials, here λ is the coefficient of effective field and M = $\chi$H_e with $\chi$ being the magnetic susceptibility and H_e being the applied field. The variation of the equivalent $\lambda_{\chi}$with the dynamic applied field is given and the crystal field-splitting levels of the excited configuration 4f⁷5d¹ of the Tb³⁺ ion are calculated in the Tb₃Ga₅O₁₂. By means of the effective field H_m and the applied field H_e, the Faraday rotation of Tb₃Ga₅O₁₂ at 6 K and 41 K, under the high magnetic field and at 0.63 μm wavelength, are presented. Our calculated results are in agreement with the experimental data.     

An Yb-fiber frequency comb phase-locked to microwave standard and optical reference

We present a fully stabilized Yb-fiber frequency comb locked to a microwave standard and an optical reference separately. The carrier-envelope offset frequency is generated by a standard f–2f interferometer with 40 dB signal-tonoise ratio. The offset frequency and the repetition rate are stabilized simultaneously to the radio frequency reference for more than 30 hours, and the fractional Allan deviation of the comb is the same as the microwave standard of 10^-12 at 1 s.Alternatively, the comb is locked to an ultra-stable optical reference at 972 nm using an intracavity electro-optic modulator,exhibiting a residual integrated phase noise of 458 mrad(1 Hz–10 MHz) and an in-loop tracking stability of 1.77× 10^-18 at 1 s, which is significantly raised by six orders comparing to the case locked to the microwave frequency standard.     

N.M.R. study of internal motion in hexahydrated acid fluorides of cobalt and nickel

A linear relationship between the viscosity B-coefficient of the Jones-Dole equation for aqueous solutions of certain alkali metal salts and the enthalpy of hydration of the gaseous monatomic constituent ions has been established. The assumption that a similar rectilinear law applies to ammonium halides appears justified and the enthalpies of solution of NH₄ ⁺(g)+X^-(g) have been estimated and used to obtain magnitudes for the lattice energies of NH₄X(c) [X=F, Cl, Br, I]. In conjunction with experimental thermochemical data, the latter yield consistent results for the proton affinity of ammonia ΔH ₁ ^?=860·5±2·0 kJ mol^-1 (298·15 K). The lattice energies of the salts are, (in kJ mol^-1) 834 (NH₄F), 708 (NH₄Cl), 682 (NH₄Br) and 637(NH₄I).

The heat capacity of the layer compounds (CH3CH2CH2NH3)2MnCl4 and (CH3CH2CH2NH3)2CdCl4 from 10 K TO 300 K

The heat capacity of the layer compounds tetrachlorobis (n-propylammonium) manganese II and tetrachlorobis (n-propylammonium) cadmium II, (CH₃CH₂CH₂NH₃)₂MnCl₄ and (CH₃CH₂CH₂NH₃)₂CdCl₄ respectively, has been measured over the temperature range 10 K ?T ? 300 K.Two known structural phase transitions were observed for the Mn compound in this temperature region: at T = 112.8 ± 0.1 K (ΔH_t= 586 ± 2 J mol^?1; ΔS_t = 5.47 ± 0.02 J K^?1mol^?1) and at T =164.3 ± (ΔH_t = 496 ± 7 J mol^?1; ΔS_t =3.29 ± 0.05 J K^?1mol^?1). The lower transition is known to be from a monoclinic structure to a tetragonal structure, while the upper is from the tetragonal phase to an orthorhombic one. From comparison with the results for the corresponding methyl Mn compound it is deduced that the lower transition primarily involves changes in H-bonding while the upper transition involves motion in the propyl chain.A new structural phase transition was observed in the Cd compound at T= 105.5 ± 0.1 K (ΔH_t= 1472.3 ± 0.1 J mol^?1; ΔS_t = 13.956 ± 0.001 J K^?1mol^?1), in addition to two transitions that have been observed previously by other techniques. The higher of these transitions(T = 178.7 ± 0.3 K; ΔH_t = 982 ± 4 J mol^?1 ΔS_t = 6.16 ± 0.02 J K^? mol^?1) is known to be between two orthorhombic structures, while the structural changes at the lower transition (T= 156.8 ± 0.2 K; ΔH_t = 598 ± 5 J mol^?1, ΔS_t = 3.85 ± 0.03 J K^?1 mol^?1) and at the new transition are not known. It is proposed that these two transitions correspond respectively to the tetragonal to orthorhombic and monoclinic to tetragonal transitions in the propyl Mn compounds.In addition to the structural phase transitions (CH₃CH₂CH₂NH₃)₂MnCl₄ magnetically orders at t? 130 K. The magnetic contribution to the heat capacity is deduced from the heat capacity of the corresponding diamagnetic Cd compound and is of the form expected for a quasi 2-dimensional Heisenberg antiferromagnet.     

Geometry,strength of binding and Br2 charge redistribution in the complex OC ··· Br2 determined by rotational spectroscopy

The ground-state rotational spectra of the six isotopomers ¹⁶O¹²C ··· ⁷⁹Br⁷⁹Br, ¹⁶O¹²C ··· ⁸¹Br⁷⁹Br, ¹⁶O¹²C ··· ⁸¹Br⁸¹Br, ¹⁶O¹²C ··· ⁷⁹Br⁸¹Br, ¹⁶O¹³C ··· ⁷⁹Br⁷⁹Br, ¹⁶O¹³C ··· ⁸¹Br⁷⁹Br, were observed by pulsed-nozzle, Fourier-transform microwave spectroscopy. The spectroscopic constants B _O, D _J, χ _aa (Br_i), χ _aa (Br_o), M_bb (Br_i) and M _bb (Br_o), where i = inner and o = outer, were determined for each isotopomer. The complex is linear, with the weak bond between the C atom of CO and Br_i. The rotational constants were used to determine the distance r(C ··· Br_i) = 3.1058Å and to show that the Br—Br bond lengthens by ～0.005–0.01Å on complex formation. The intermolecular stretching force constant kσ = 5.0 Nm^?1 was obtained from D_J and the Br nuclear quadrupole coupling constants were interpreted to reveal that a fraction δ = 0.02 of an electronic charge is transferred from Br_i to Br_o when Br₂ is subsumed into the complex. Properties of the two series OC ··· XY and H₃N ··· XY, where XY = C1₂, Br₂ and BrC1, are compared.     

Accurate ab initio anharmonic force field and heat of formation for silane

From large basis set coupled cluster calculations and a minor empirical adjustment, an anharmonic force field for silane has been derived that is consistently of spectroscopic quality (±1 cm^?1 on vibrational fundamentals) for all isotopomers of silane studied. Inner-shell polarization functions have an appreciable effect on computed properties and even on anharmonic corrections. From large basis set coupled cluster calculations and extrapolations to the infinite-basis set limit, we obtain TAE₀ = 303.80 ± 0.18 kcal mol^?1, which includes an anharmonic zero-point energy (19.59 kcal mol^?1), inner-shell correlation (—0.36 kcal mol^?1), scalar relativistic corrections (— 0.70 kcal mol^?1) and atomic spin-orbit corrections (—0.43 kcal mol^?1). In combination with the recently revised ΔH ^o _{f, o}[Si(g)], we obtain ΔH ^o _f.o[SiH₄(g)] = 9.9 ± 0.4 kcal mol^?1 in between the two established experimental values.     

On the phase transition in α-NH4HgCl3, a two-dimensional version of ammonium chloride

Heat capacity of α-NH₄HgCl₃ crystal has been measured with an adiabatic calorimeter from 11 to 300 K. A sharply peaked anomaly due to an order-disorder change of the ammonium ions was found at 54.97 ± 0.04 K. The entropy and enthalpy changes were estimated to be ΔS = 5.2 ± 1.0JK^?1 mol^?1 and ΔH = 342 ± 65 J mol^?1. In accordance withthe structural two-dimensionality of α-NH₄HgCl₃ crystal, Onsager's solution of the two-dimensional Ising model was used in calculation of the transition temperature. On the assumption that the octopole-octopole interaction is responsible for the ordering of the ammonium ions in the present crystal and in ammonium chloride, the calculation gives 74.44 K for the transition temperature. Several possibilities were discussed for explaining the remaining discrepancy between the observed and calculated transition temperatures.     

Chlorine chemisorption and surface chloride formation on Au(111)

The adsorption-desorption properties of the gold(111)-chlorine system have been investigated. Thermal desorption experiments following chlorine adsorption at 298 K indicated two desorption processes: the high temperature peak (ΔH = 217 kJmol^?1) showed desorption of equal numbers of molecukr and atomic chlorine species, while the lower temperature peak (ΔH = 140 kJmol^?1) was due to the desorption of Cl₂ only. Chlorine adsorption led to a maximum work function change of +0.5 V and electron-stimulated desorption proceeded with constant cross-section (1.4 × 10¹⁸ cm²), until all chlorine had been removed from the surface These observations are consistent with the immediate formation of a surface chloride (AuCl₃) during chlorine adsorption on Au(111) at 298 K without the intervention of an initial adsorbed overlayer.
