Thermodynamic Properties of Selected Chemical Substances

The values given in the following table for the heats and free energies of formation of inorganic compounds are derived from a) Bichowsky and Rossini, Thermochemistry of the Chemical Substances, Reinhold, New York, 1936 (h) Latimer, Oxidation States of the Elements and Their Potentials in Aqueous Solution, Prentice-Hall, New York, 1938 (c) the tables of the American Petroleum Institute Research Project 44 at the National Bureau of Standards and (d) the tables of Selected Values of Chemical Thermodynamic Properties of the National Bureau of Standards. The reader is referred to the preceding books and tables for additional details as to methods of calculation, standard states, and so on.

Metallurgical, materials, ceramic and chemical engineers worldwide will welcome this new compilation of thermochemical data by Professor Barin. Here they will find the most comprehensive tables yet available for the thermodynamic properties of pure substances as a function of temperature at 100° intervals. Almost twenty-four hundred substances are included - the elements, and compounds of two, three, and four elements. The vast majority of substances are inorganic, but Dr. Barin has included a generous selection of the more common hydrocarbons, carbohydrates, and a few chlorinated hydrocarbons. The format of the tables conforms to that of the JANAF tables, and SI units are employed.
