Thermodynamic properties of Ce-Cd intermetallic compound were investigated in LiCl-KCl-CeCl3-CdCl2 molten salt system at various temperatures. Six Ce-Cd intermetallic compounds, CeCd, CeCd2, CeCd3, Ce13Cd58, CeCd6, and CeCd11 could be observed via cyclic voltammetry (CV) and the relative Gibbs free energies for the intermetallic formations were estimated by the analysis of the anodic peaks in the CV experiments. Furthermore, an open circuit chronopotentiometry which is known as a suitable method for measuring thermodynamic values of intermetallic compounds were performed. The linear trends of the relative Gibbs free energies were found by using potential difference from CV and CP methods. It can be noted that CV method can be easy and fast tool to estimate relative Gibbs energy for intermetallic compounds of Cd-Ms (metals). For the determination of standard Gibbs free energy, enthalpy, and entropy for the intermetallic formation, CP results were used. The linear trend of the Gibbs energy were obtained against temperature changing from 698 K to 823 K. From the linear relationship, the enthalpy and entropy of the formation were calculated.

Electrodeposition from molten-salt systems has been studied extensively as a method of producing both polycrystalline and single-crystalline materials. In this work, the thermodynamic aspects of the electrodeposition process are examined in a number of cases in which the molten-salt system behaves effectively as an oxygen-transporting medium, with particular reference to the thermodynamic properties of the melt. It is demonstrated how information gained from the construction of the appropriate isothermal phase diagram may be used to control and/or rationalize the behavior found in a given melt system on electrolysis.

The focus of discussion in Working Group 3 was on the Thermodynamic Properties as determined spectroscopically, including the observational techniques and the theoretical modeling of physical processes responsible for the emission spectrum. Recent advances in observational techniques and theoretical concepts make this discussion particularly timely. It is wise to remember that the determination of thermodynamic parameters is not an end in itself and that these are interesting chiefly for what they can tell us about the energetics and mass transport in prominences.

The kinetics of the electrophilic additions of four diarylcarbenium ions (4a-4d) to tricarbonyl(η4-cyclohepta-1,3,5-triene)iron (1) have been studied photometrically. The second-order rate constants match the linear Gibbs energy relationship log k20 °C = s(E + N) and yield the nucleophilicity parameter N(1) = 3.69. It is concluded that electrophiles with E ≥ -9 will react with complex 1 at ambient temperature.
