Heat capacity and thermodynamic functions for gehlenite and staurolite: with comments on the Schootky anomaly in the heat capacity of staurolite.
January 1, 1984
The heat capacities of a synthetic gehlenite and a natural staurolite were measured from 12 and 5 K, respectively, to 370 K by adiabatic calorimetry, and the heat capacities of staurolite were measured to 900 K by differential scanning calorimetry. At 298.15 K and 1 bar the entropy of gehlenite is 210.1 + or - 0.6 J/(mol.K) and that of staurolite is 1019.6 + or - 12.0 for H2Al2Fe4Al16Si8O48 and 1101.0 + or - 12.0 for 103(H3Al1.15Fe2+0.60)- 324(Fe2+2.07Fe3+0.54 Ti0.08Mn0.02Al1.19)(Mg0.44Al15.26)Si8O48. -J.A.Z.
