The thermochemical properties of the uranium-halogen containing compounds. Interim report

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6644588

A detailed analysis and evaluation of the thermochemistry of the uranium-halogen containing compounds is presented, with a tabular summary of the thermochemical properties given. The properties given, where data are available, are in the enthalpy of formation, delta Hf, Gibbs energy of formation, delta Gf, entropy, S, Heat capacity C(p), all at temperature 298.15K, and the enthalpy of formation at K 0, delta Hf (0), and the enthalpy difference, H (298)-H (0). The values are consistent with the CODATA Key Values for thermodynamics. The analysis of the uranium-halogen containing compounds includes some vaporpressure equations and C(p) equations. Some thermal functions which are not readily available in the accessible open literature are presented in the Appendix for compounds that required their use. The tabular summary of delta Hf, delta Gf, includes the values for those uranium compounds which were necessary for this evaluation.
