Heat of Formation of Oleums from Sulfur Trioxide and Water The heats of formation and infinite dilution of oleums have been recalculated from all the data available on the subject. CARL V. HERRMA" Grasselli Chemicals Department, E. I. du Pont de Nemours & Company, Inc., Wilmington, Del.

data for the heats of formation of HzSz07(solid) and H2S207 (liquid) should be increased by 2.6 kg.-cal. per mole, t o give 304.8 and 302.25 kg.-cal. per mole, respectively. SUMMARYOF BICHOWSKYAND ROSSINI. These two workers (1) reviewed the available data and gave "best" values for the heats of formation of sulfuric acid, sulfur trioxide, and water from which the heat of infinite dilution can be calculated as shown in Table 111. DATAOF HOWARD TEST. A simple method for the determination of the composition of oleum was devised by Howard (d). It is based on the temperature rise on mixing 150 ml. of 66" BB. (93.19 per cent) sulfuric acid with 50 ml. of oleum in a Dewar flask. A number of unpublished data on the test carried out under exact laboratory conditions were available. The d e terminations were made a t 30" C., and the temperature rise was noted in each case. Table IV gives the calculations of the heat of infinite dilution of the oleums. The weight of

HE only aiTailable values for the heat of formation of oleums are those of Porter (4) which were derived from the experimental data of Knietsch (3). These are inconsistent with the most generally accepted values for the heat of dilution of sulfuric acid solutions and sulfur trioxide. Accordingly, all available data, including those of Knietsch, have been reviewed and a new set of consistent values has been calculated. In order to reduce all the data t o a common basis, the heat of infinite dilution of the oleum involved was calculated from the experimental data and the heat of formation of sulfuric acid a t various dilutions as summarized by Bichowsky and Rossini ( 1 ) . To simplify subsequent calculations, the heat of dilution was expressed as heat per gram mole of sulfur trioxide in the original oleum.

Data from the Literature DATAOF KNIETSCH.The heat of dilution a t about 18" C. of various concentrations of sulfuric acid and of liquid and solid oleums was determined by Knietsch by two methods. I n the first set of experiments 15-40 grams of oleum were added to 5-6 kg. of water in a calorimeter. I n the second set, 0.5 kg. of oleum was added to 400 kg. of water in a large wooden barrel. The actual experimental results were not given, and the values reported were smoothed averages. One illustrative calculation for the first set indicated that 40 grams of 91.05 per cent total sulfur trioxide oleum were added to 5 kg. of water. If this is taken as representative of the first set of experiments, the final dilution can be calculated as 750 moles of water per mole of sulfuric acid. In the second set the final dilution was about 4000 moles of water per mole of sulfuric acid. From Bichowsky and Rossini's data the heat of infinite dilution of the final solution in the first set is 3.59 kg.-cal. per gram mole of sulfuric acid, and in the second set it is 2.24 kg.-cal. Knietsch stated that the two results agreed well, and since it is impossible to distinguish which dilution applied, a value of 2.9 kg.-cal. per gram mole of sulfuric acid was added to all the reported values to reduce them to infinite dilution. Table I gives the results of the calculations. The single determination in which the dilution was known is given separately. DATAOF THOMSEN. This investigator (7) determined the heat of solution at 18" C. of liquid oleum and liquid sulfur trioxide. The experimental data were given and are corrected to infinite dilution in Table 11. Owing to a slight ambiguity in Thomsen's text, Bichowsky and Rossini ( 1 ) assumed that he worked with the solid. This is incorrect and therefore their

the oleum and 66" BB. acid was calculated from specific gravity tables given in Sullivan's handbook (6) and the density of water a t 60' F. The heat capacity of the Dewar flask was determined by mixing 9-18 grams of 95 per cent sulfuric acid with about 100 grams of water and comparing the heat evolution estimated from the temperature rise with that calculated from the known heats of dilution and specific heats of the acids involved. Three tests gave 12.4, 11.1, and 12.6 calories per " C. as the heat capacity of the flask and thermometer] and a mean of 12 calories per O C. was used in the calculations. To obtain the heat of dilution at 18" C., the heat content of the oleum, 66" BB. acid, and final mixture were calculated by the specific heat data of Socolik (6) for the acids and those of Knietsch (8) for the oleums. The heat of mixing a t 18" C. was then calculated by adding the heat content of the final acid to the heat absorbed by the calorimeter and subtracting from this the sum of the heat contents of the original 66" BB. acid and oleum. The heat of infinite dilution of the oleum was then calculated by combining this value with the heat of infinite dilution a t 18" C. of the original 66" BB. acid and the final acid mixture (estimated from the data of Bichowsky and Rossini, 1).
