Thermodynamic Characteristics of the Sodium Dimolybdate Single Crystal: Enthalpy and Heat Capacity
摘要
Abstract
The standard enthalpy of formation of sodium dimolybdate was determined by dissolution calorimetry based on the measured enthalpies of dissolution of Na2CO3, MoO3, and Na2Mo2O7 in a 0.2 M NaOH solution and the literature data: ΔfH0(Na2Mo2O7, 298.15 K) = −2245.3 ± 6.3 kJ/mol. The lattice enthalpy was calculated using the Born–Haber cycle: –54 730 kJ/mol. The wavelength of luminescence radiation decreased from 650 to 540 nm on passing from sodium molybdate to sodium tungstate, and the lattice enthalpy decreased from –54 730 kJ/mol (Na2Mo2O7) to –49 030 kJ/mol (Na2W2O7). The temperature dependence of the heat capacity of sodium dimolybdate was determined in the temperature range 320–785 K. There are no phase transitions in this range.
