The uncertainty and the inaccurary of the experimental results were within ±0.3% compared with the recommended reference data. Using the calorimeter, the molar enthalpies of reaction for the following two reactions: LaCl₃·7H₂O(s)+2Hhq(s)+NaAc(s)=La(hq)₂Ac(s)+NaCl(s)+2HCl(g)+7H₂O(l) and PrCl₃·6H₂O(s)+2Hhq(s)+NaAc(s)=Pr(hq)₂Ac(s)+NaCl(s)+2HCl(g)+6H₂O(l), were determined at T=298.15 K, as −(78.3±0.6) and −(97.3±0.5) kJ mol^−l, respectively. From the above molar enthalpies of reaction and other auxiliary thermodynamic quantities, the standard molar enthalpies of formation of La(hq)₂Ac and Pr(hq)₂Ac, at T=298.15 K, have been derived to be −(1535.5±0.7) and −(1536.7±0.6) kJ mol^−l, respectively.     

Dissolution De L'hydroxyapatite et Du Phosphate Tricalcique β Dans Les Solutions D'acide Nitrique

Using an isoperibol calorimeter for rapid reactions and a Calsol type microcalorimeter for slow processes, are applied to determine the enthalpies of solution of two synthetic phosphate products in nitric acid. Namely, β tricalcium phosphate Ca₃(PO₄)₂ and the calcium hydroxyapatite Ca₁₀ (PO₄)₆ (OH)₂ are measured by varying pH value of the solvent. Some dissolution mechanisms are proposed for various pH values. They are ensured by complementary reactions of solution of Ca(NO₃)₂, Ca(H₂ PO₄)₂ and H₃ PO₄ in the same solvents. An extrapolation of solution enthalpies to pH=7 leads to the enthalpy of solution of these products in the pure water. These values are Δ_sol H °=–138.3 kJ mol^–1 for Ca₃ (PO₄)₂ and –393.6 kJ mol^–1 for Ca₁₀ (PO₄)₆ (OH)₂ .

Calorimetric study of sodium-rich zirconium phosphate

The heat capacity investigation of crystalline pentasodium zirconium tris(phosphate) was carried out in a vacuum adiabatic calorimeter between 7 and 340 K and in a differential scanning calorimeter of the heat bridge type between 330 and 620 K. Between 389 and 424 K, an isostructural solid-to-solid phase transition of Na₅Zr(PO₄)₃, has been found, the nature of which is connected with a centering of off-centered zirconium atoms in octahedral sites and an occupation transfer between sodium sites in the structure. The results were used to calculate the characteristics of the phase transition and the thermodynamic functions of Na₅Zr(PO₄)₃: the transition temperature T°_trs, enthalpy of transition Δ_trsH°, entropy of transition Δ_trsS°; enthalpy H°(T)−H°(0), entropy S°(T) and Gibbs function G°(T)−H°(0) over the range from 0 to 620 K. From hydrofluoric acid solution microcalorimetry, the enthalpy of solution of Na₅Zr(PO₄)₃ at 298.15 K has been determined and the standard enthalpy of formation has been derived. By combining the data obtained by the two techniques, the Gibbs function of formation of Na₅Zr(PO₄)₃ at 298.15 K has been calculated.

Low-temperature heat capacities of a solid complex Zn(Val)SO₄·H₂O(s) were measured by a precision automated adiabatic calorimeter over the temperature range between 78 and 373 K. The initial dehydration temperature of the coordination compound was determined to be, T _D=327.05 K, by analysis of the heat-capacity curve.

Thermodynamic exploitation of the liquidus curves in the MIPO3–Pb(PO3)2, MIPO3–Cu(PO3)2 and MIPO3–Ce(PO3)3 systems (M I=Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs, Ag, Tl)

The thermodynamic exploitation of the solid–liquid equilibria in the M^IPO₃–Pb(PO₃)₂, M^IPO₃–Cu(PO₃)₂ and M^IPO₃–Ce(PO₃)₃ systems (with M ^I=Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs, Ag, Tl) is carried out using a semi-empirical equation of the liquidus curves already used with success for similar binary systems. The enthalpy of fusion is calculated for each pure polyphosphate on the assumption that the liquid solution is ideal and only formed by M^IPO₃ and M(PO₃)_q entities (q=2 for Pb and Cu, q=3 for M=Ce). In the most binary systems, a wide difference between the calculated values of the melting enthalpies of these polyphosphates and the measured ones determined from the DTA curves, was observed. This difference is probably due to the existence of some molecular associations in the liquid phase.
