Heat capacty, relative enthalpy, and calorimetric entropy of silicate minerals: an empirical method of prediction.

January 1, 1983

Through the evaluation of experimental calorimetric data and estimates of the molar isobaric heat capacities, relative enthalpies and entropies of constituent oxides, a procedure for predicting the thermodynamic properties of silicates is developed. Estimates of the accuracy and precision of the technique and examples of its application are also presented. -J.A.Z.
