Abstrakt: The formation energetics of hydrous and dehydrated potassium hexaniobates are investigated using high-temperature oxide melt solution calorimetry. The enthalpies of formation of K4Nb6O17 and K4Nb6O17·3H2O from oxides are (−864.42 ± 10.63) and (−899.32 ± 11.48) kJ/mol, respectively. The formation enthalpy of K4Nb6O17 from elements is (−7289.64 ± 12.50) kJ/mol, and of K4Nb6O17·3H2O is (−8181.94 ± 13.24) kJ/mol. The enthalpy of dehydration (Δ Hdehy) for the reaction K4Nb6O17·3H2O (xl, 25°C) = K4Nb6O17 (xl, 25°C) + 3H2O (l, 25°C) is endothermic and is 34.60 ± 7.56 kJ/mol. The Δ Hdehy per mole of water, 11.53 ± 2.52 kJ/mol, indicates the water molecules in K4Nb6O17·3H2O are not just physically adsorbed, but loosely bonded in the K4Nb6O17 phase, presumably in specific interlayer sites. The loss of this water near 100°C on heating is consistent with the weak bonding of water. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
