Sublimation enthalpies at 298.15 K using correlation gas chromatography and differential scanning calorimetry measurements
The sublimation enthalpies of 17 hydrocarbons are obtained by combining the technique of correlation gas chromatography (CGC), to evaluate vaporization enthalpies at 298.15 K, and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) to measure fusion enthalpies. Vaporization enthalpies at 298.15 K obtained by CGC are compared to values measured directly from vapor pressure measurements at temperatures above the melting point by adjusting the experimental vaporization enthalpy for the effects of temperature. Vaporization enthalpies obtained by these two methods agree within +/-3877 J mol(-1). Fusion enthalpies are similarly adjusted for temperature. Sublimation enthalpies, obtained by combining temperature adjusted fusion, and vaporization enthalpies agree within +/-2580 J mol(-1). The sublimation enthalpies of azulene and 1,8-cyclotetradecadiyne are also measured by head-space analysis resulting in values of 76880 and 94348 J mol(-1) at 298.15 K, respectively.
