| Abstract |
Low-temperature heat capacities and high-temperature enthalpies were determined calorimetrically for Na2Cr04. A reversible transition was found at 700K with an isothermal heat of transition of 2,263 cal/mole. High-temperature X-ray diffraction analysis showed that the transition was a crystal change from the low-temperature orthorhombic form to the high-temperature hexagonal form. Powder diffraction data for the high-temperature form are given and possible structures discussed. The melting point was determined to be 1,065K with a heat of fusion of 5,810 cal/mole. Enthalpy and entropy increments from the investigation were combined with other data from the literature to calculate enthalpies of formation, free energies of formation, and equilibrium constants of formation from 298 to 1,400K. Equations representing enthalpies above 298K are given. (Author) |
