We have carried out calorimetric measurements leading to ΔHf0 = −60 kcal mol−1 for Cr3+(aq). Further calorimetric measurements have led to enthalpies of reaction of Cr3+(aq) with HF(aq), Cl−(aq), Br−(aq), and SO42−(aq) to form the 'inner sphere' complexes CrF2+(aq), CrCl2+(aq), CrBr2+(aq), and CrSO4+(aq). Results of our measurements lead to ΔHf0 = (−60.0 ± 1.5) kcal mol−1 for Cr3+(aq), ΔHf0 = −136.8 kcal mol−1 for CrF2+(aq), ΔHf0 = −93.7 kcal mol−1 for CrCl2+(aq), ΔHf0 = −80.1 kcal mol−1 for CrBr2+(aq), and ΔHf0 = −269.7 kcal mol−1 for CrSO4+(aq).

AbstractBatch adsorption experiments in which neptunium bearing solutions were reacted with goethite (alpha-FeOOH) have been performed to study uptake mechanisms in sodium chloride and calcium-bearing sodium silicate solutions. This paper presents results identifying and quantifying the mechanisms by which neptunium is adsorbed as a function of pH and reaction time (aging). Also presented are results from tests in which neptunium is reacted with goethite in the presence of other cations (uranyl and calcium) that may compete with neptunium for sorption sites. The desorption of neptunium from goethite has been studied by resuspending the neptunium-loaded goethite samples in solutions containing no neptunium. Selected reacted sorbent samples were analyzed by x-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) to determine the oxidation state and molecular speciation of the adsorbed neptunium. Results have been used to establish the pH adsorption edge of neptunium on goethite in sodium chloride and calcium-bearing sodium silicate solutions. The results indicate that neptunium uptake on goethite reaches 95% at a pH of approximately 7 and begins to decrease at pH values greater than 8.5. Distribution coefficients for neptunium sorption range from less than 1000 (moles/kg)sorbed / (moles/kg)solution at pH less than 5.0 to greater than 10,000 (moles/kg)sorbed / (moles/kg)solution at pH greater than 7.0. Distribution coefficients as high as 100,000 (moles/kg)sorbed / (moles/kg)solution were recorded for the tests done in calcite equilibrated sodium silicate solutions. XAS results show that neptunium complexes with the goethite surface mainly as Np(V) (although Np(IV) is prevalent in some of the longer-duration sorption tests). The neptunium adsorbed to goethite shows Np-O bond length of approximately 1.8 angstroms which is representative of the Np-O axial bond in the neptunyl(V) complex. This neptunyl(V) ion is coordinated to 5 or 6 equatorial oxygens with Np-O bond lengths of 2.45 angstroms. The absence of a clearly recognizable Np-Fe interaction for the sodium chloride sorption tests suggests that neptunium in these solutions adsorbs as an outer-sphere complex. XAS results from the calcium-bearing sodium silicate sorption tests show evidence for a neptunyl(V) inner-sphere surface complex with a Np-Fe interaction at 3.5 angstroms. Desorption tests indicate that samples in which neptunium is bound as inner-sphere complexes show significant sorption hysteresis relative to samples in which neptunium is bound largely as outer-sphere complexes.

We have made calorimetric measurements of the enthalpies of solution of gibbsite, Al(OH)3(cr), in aqueous sodium hydroxide solutions at five temperatures from 100 to 150 °C. Results of these measurements have been used to obtain the standard enthalpies of formation of Na+(aq) + Al(OH)4−(aq) at the experimental temperatures. These results have also led to values of ΔCp0 for the reaction represented concisely by Al(OH)3(cr) + OH−(aq) = Al(OH)4−(aq), from which we have obtained standard state partial molar heat capacities of Na+(aq) + Al(OH)4−(aq). Combination of our results with those from earlier investigations has permitted calculation of thermodynamic properties of Na+(aq) + Al(OH)4−(aq) over a wide range of temperature and thence some generalizations about the usefulness of various equations for representing or predicting these thermodynamic properties. Key words: gibbsite, enthalpy of solution; sodium aluminate (aqueous), thermodynamic properties; heat capacities, Na+(aq) + Al(OH)4−(aq).

Abstract The oscillator strengths of the f-f transitions as well the fluorescence spectra for europium Perchlorate, chloride and nitrate in mono- and disubstituted amides have been measured. The Judd-Ofelt parameters are calculated. The formation of inner-sphere europium complexes is discussed on the basis of intensity analysis of the absorption and luminescence spectra. In mono- and disubstituted amides solutions the f-f transitions of Eu+3 have been analysed and the three parameters fitted with satisfactory accuracy. Among all f-f transitions the hypersensitive ones in absorption 7 F0 → 5 D0 and fluorescence 5 D0 → 7 F2 varied most markedly. From an analysis of the data it was concluded that only Eu(NO3)3 and EUCl3 in DMF form inner-sphere complexes. At low concentration of EUCl3 in DMF the predominant form is [EuCl(DMF)y−1]+2 , whereas at high concentration the predominant form is [EUCl2(DMF)y−2]+1 . The intensity of the hypersensitive bands decreases with increasing EUC1 3 concentration, contrary to the common opinion that complexation increases the intensity of hypersensitive bands.
