Abstract

The Tian-Calvet microcalorimetric method has been applied to the determination at 1323 K of ΔH( O 2), the partial molar enthalpy of mixing of oxygen in vanadium, niobium and tantalum. The present results are in good agreement with earlier studies using e.m.f. techniques. Nevertheless in the first two solutions, ΔH( O 2) has been found somewhat more negative than previously reported. The partial molar entropies of mixing have been recalculated. The low values of the excess entropies are explained by a strong increase of the Debye temperature and a decrease of the electronic density of states at the Fermi level as the oxygen content increases.
