Enthalpies of the formation and decomposition of hydrogen trioxide HOOOH in an aqueous solution

Аннотация

The enthalpies of the formation and decomposition of hydrogen trioxide are estimated from the heating curves of peroxide-radical condensates synthesized from gaseous O₂ + H₂ mixtures. Enthalpy of decomposition Н₂О₃(aq.) → Н₂О(liq.) + О₂(gas) is −31.2 ± 1.5 kcal/mol, and enthalpy of formation Δ_fH(H₂O₃, aq.) =–37.5 ± 1.6 kcal/mol. Both values correspond to the temperature range of 240–265 K.
