9780195048889: Thermodynamic Values at Low Temperature for Natural Inorganic Materials: An Uncritical Summary

Synopsis

This book presents an uncritical summary of thermodynamic data for common minerals and compounds at ambient surface conditions, with complete references for the data. Values of the enthalpy of formation, Gibbs energy of formation, and entropy for common elements, aqueous species, gases, liquids, minerals (many of which are usually not found in critical tables) and related substances are brought together. Because the summary is uncritical, all available values for the various species are included, allowing readers to make a choice among the data compiled by various groups. The table is an important reference for geochemists, geologists, and chemists.

Revue de presse

`Since the application of thermodynamics to sedimentary geochemistry was pioneered by Professor Garrels, any compilation of thermodynamic data by him will inevitably be vested with considerable authority. In this case, rightly so...An essential buy for any serious sedimentary geochemist.' Mineralogical Magazine
