The standard molar enthalpy of formation of UNCI
The enthalpies of solution of UNCl(s) and a mixture of UCl4 and NH4Cl in (0.76 mol (.) dm(-3) HCl + 0.03 mol (.) dm(-3) FeCl3) have been measured. From these values the standard molar enthalpy of formation of UNCl(s) has been derived: Delta(f)H(m)(o)(UNCl, s, 298.15 K) = -(559 +/- 4) kJ (.) mol(-1).
