Abstract

A thermochemical study of natural calcium and magnesium orthosilicate monticellite (Ca1.00Mg0.95$${\text{Fe}}_{{0.05}}^{{2 + }}$$)[SiO4] from the Khabarovsk Territory, Russia, was carried out on a Tian–Calvet microcalorimeter. The enthalpy of formation from elements Δf$$H_{{{\text{el}}}}^{^\circ }$$(298.15 K) = –2238.4 ± 4.5 kJ/mol was determined by high-temperature melt solution calorimetry. The enthalpy and Gibbs energy of formation of monticellite of theoretical composition of CaMg[SiO4] are calculated: Δf$$H_{{{\text{el}}}}^{^\circ }$$(298.15 K) = –2248.4 ± 4.5 kJ/mol and Δf$$G_{{{\text{el}}}}^{^\circ }$$(298.15 K) = –2130.5 ± 4.5 kJ/mol.
