A calorimeter was described allowing measurements to be made of the heats of combustion of gaseous hydrogen compounds at constant atmospheric pressure. With the aid of this calorimeter the heats of combustion were measured of hydrogen and deuterium sulfides, and with their aid the heats of formation under standard conditions were calculated; that for the first compound was found to be 4.94 kg cal/mole and for the second, 5.71 kg cal/mole with an accuracy of 1.1 to 1.6%. The corresponding free energy values are 8.02 and 8.48. All this enabled one to establish the isotopic effect on the strength of chemical bonds. The energy of the chemical bond between hydrogen atoms and sulfur equals 81.2 kg cal, whereas between deuterium and sulfur it is 81.5 kg cal. (auth)
