The present communication reports corrected values for the thermodynamic properties of hydrochloric acid and the ionization constants of the simple aliphatic acids from a recalculation of experimental data report,ed by Harned and associates' elsewhere.

THE HEAT OF SOLUTION OF SODIUM METABORATE AT 0’ BY GEORGEGRENIERA N D DAVIDWHITE Contribution of the Cryogenic Laboratory, Department of Chemistry, The Ohio State University, Columbus 10, Ohio Received Julu 91,1967

Since there has been considerable interest of late in the thermodynamic properties of borates, we have decided to present the results of some measurements on the heat of solution of Naz0.B203from which the heat of formation of sodium metaborate can be calculated. Recently Shartsis and Cappsl determined the heat of solution in 2 N nitric acid of various mixtures of stable compounds in the Na20-B20asystem. Only in one case did the composition of the starting material correspond to a pure borate. This compound was Na20.2Bz03. By extrapolation of their data to the composition corresponding to sodium metaborate a value of the heat solution is obtained which leads to a heat of formation of this compound of -468.3 kcal./mole. This is not in agreement with the value of -506 kcal./mole2 given in the literature. Experimental Apparatus and Procedure.-The measurements were made with a modified Bunsen ice calorimeter, which has been described previously .3 The calorimeter was a modification of the calorimeters developed by the National Bureau of Standards.416 The procedure for heat of solution measurements using this ice calorimeter as well as its calibration is discussed in detail by Clifton and MacWood.3 After evacuation to remove traces of water, the sodium metaborate samples were sealed in approximately spherical glass bulbs in a dry nitrogen atmosphere. The samples were dissolved by shattering the bulbs in a standardized solution of 2.005 N nitric acid in the calorimeter. In the early experiments the ratio of solute t o solvent was regulated so that i t would correspond to the ratio used by Shartsis and Capps. However, it was discovered that there was insufficient solvent to dissolve the sample completely when this ratio was used. Since our calorimeter operated a t Oo, 25“ lower than the one used by Shartsis and Capps, the solubility of the metaborate had decreased sufficiently to make their ratio of solute to solvent impractical. The working ratio used in this series of determinations was 0.001 mole of sodium metaborate to 25 cc. of solvent, 2.005 N nitric acid. Materials.-The sodium metaborate was prepared by removing the water of hydration from the tetrahydrate of the metaborate by a process of simultaneous heating and evacua(1) L.Shartsis and W.

tion. This tetrahydrate, which is sold commercially under the trade name of “Kodalk,” was purified by recrystallla* tion from distilled water. Final purification was completed by placing the anhydrous metaborate in a furnace and heating above its melting point followed by slow crystallization from the melt. The material was stored in a vacuum desiccator.

Results and Discussion The results of the heat of solution measurements are listed in Table I. The average of five determinations gives a value of -20.43 & 0.36 kcal./ mole, a t 0’. TABLE I HEATOF SOLUTION OF SODIUM METABORATE AT 0’ N NITRICACIDSOLUTION Sample wt.

Solvent I and I11 are solely 2.005 N nitric acid solution. Solvent 11, which is identical in composition to end solution 2, consisted of 0.001 mole of Na20 in 25 cc. of 2.005 N nitric acid. This ratio makes the end solution of reaction 2 identical in composition to the end solution of reaction 1. If the heat of reaction 1 is subtracted from the sum of reactions 2 and 3, the heat of the following reaction is obtained NazO(s)

+ Bz03(s) = NazO.BzOa(s)

(4)

From the heat of reaction 4 one can calculate the heat of formation of Naz0.B203(s),if the heats of formation of the pure oxides are known. The heat of reaction 1 was measured experimentally a t 0’ where solvent I was 2.005 N nitric acid. The value is -20.43 kcal./mole. The heat of reaction 2 could not be measured because the heat effect for this reaction was too small to.be measured with any reasonable precision on the existing apparatus. However, the heat of solution of BzOZ has been measured in nitric acid solutions as well as those containing borates a t 25°.1#637 It is evident from these results that heat effects sccompanying changes in concentration of the solvent are m i t e small. Thus. it can be safelv assumed that (he heat of reaction 2 using solvint I1 is -3.64 kcal./mole at 25°.1fj57 The heat of solution for reaction 3 a t 25’ is calculated to be -83.9 kcal./mole.2~8This calculation was made from data in the literature using the heat of neutralization of a strong base by a strong acid and the heat of solution of NazO in water. The calculation is valid, if the heats of dilution as(6) J. C. Southard, J. Am, Chem. Sou., 63, 3147 (1941).
