Using a graphite crucible and a tungsten sinker, the liquid densities of the alkaline-earth and two rare-earth fluorides were determined by the immersed- sinker method at temperatures of 1600 te 2500 deg K. The molar volumes and thermal coefficients of expansion were calculated from the liquid densities and were correlated with those of the alkali-metal fluorides. The liquid-molar volumes of the alkaline-earth fluorides exhibit a linear relationship when plotted against the period in the periodic table. (auth)
