• Description:
  Heats of solution of calcium carbonate (calcite) and calcium oxide in hydrochloric acid were determined by solution calorimetry. Combination of these two heats yields a value of 42.643 +/- 0.024 Kcal/mole for the enthalpy of calcination of calcite at 298.15 K. Literature data on h deg 298.15 Of calcination of calcite were reviewed and compared. Thermodynamic properties for the calcination process were calculated from 298.15 to 1,500 k using Gibbs energy functions. This research was undertaken by the Bureau of Mines as an effort to provide thermodynamic data for the advancement of minerals technology, energy conservation, and environmental preservation.
