Abstract
The paper presents the results of a thermochemical and thermal study of cancrinite, (Na6.93Ca0.545K0.01)Σ7.485[(Si6.47Al5.48Fe0.05)Σ12O24](CO3)1.25 · 2.30 H2O, and cancrisilite, (Na7.17 Ca0.01)Σ7.18[(Si7.26Al4.70Fe0.04)Σ12O24][(CO3)1.05(OH)0.21(PO4)0.04(SO4)0.01] · 2.635 H2O, from the Khibina-Lovozero Complex, Kola Peninsula, Russia. Stages of the thermal decomposition of these minerals were studied using IR spectroscopy. The enthalpies of formation of the minerals from elements were determined by melt drop solution calorimetry: Δ f H el 0 (298.15 K) = −14 490 ± 16 kJ/mol for cancrinite and −14302 ± 17 kJ/mol for cancrisilite. The values of Δ f H el 0 (298.15 K), S o(298.15 K), and Δ f H el 0 (298.15 K) are determined for cancrinite and cancrisilite of theoretical composition.
