Abstract
The gas phase equilibria Ba + LnX = BaX + Ln (Ln = Sm, Eu, Yb; X = Cl, Br, I) were investigated by Knudsen effusion mass spectrometry using a low energy of ionizing electrons to avoid fragmentation processes. The BaX molecules were used as references with well-established bond energies. The atomization enthalpies ΔatH0° of the LnX molecules were determined to be 427 ± 9 (SmCl), 409 ± 9 (EuCl), 366 ± 9 (YbCl), 360 ± 10 (SmBr), 356 ± 13 (EuBr), 316 ± 9 (YbBr), 317 ± 10 (SmI), 293 ± 10 (EuI), and 283 ± 10 (YbI) kJ·mol–1.
