, 1685 (1991). We have made calorimetric measurements of the enthalpies of solution of gibbsite, Al(OH)3(cr), in aqueous sodium hydroxide solutions at five temperatures from 100 to 150°C. Results of these measurements have been used to obtain the standard enthalpies of formation of Na+(aq) + A1(OH)4-(aq) at the experimental temperatures. These results have also led to values of AC, ' for the reaction represented concisely by A1(OH)3(cr) + OHP(aq) = A1(OH)4-(aq), from which we have obtained standard state partial molar heat capacities of Na+(aq) + A1(OH)4-(aq). Combination of our results with those from earlier investigations has permitted calculation of thermodynamic properties of Na+(aq) + Al(OH)4-(aq) over a wide range of temperature and thence some generalizations about the usefulness of various equations for representing or predicting these thermodynamic properties.
