(Received 11 June 1999)
Low-lying singlet and triplet electronic states of the BeO molecule are calculated by means of the quantum chemical ab initio method. It was found that all states in the energy range from 0 to 50000 cm-1 are of valence character. Particular attention was paid to the investigation of the dissociative behavior of the states considered. The vibrational structure of the AIP<-XIS and BIS+<-XIS+ spectral systems was calculated.

Keywords: electronic spectrum, ab initio calculations, valence - Rydberg interaction

(Received 2 December 1998, revised 25 March 1999)
The nature of the crystallization water in some hydrates with different cations, namely: MnSO4·H2O; FeSO4·7H2O; CoSO4·7H2O; NiSO4·7H2O, has been studied by the application of the following non-isothermal techniques: thermogravimetry (TG), derivative thermogravimetry (DTG), and differential thermal analysis (DTA). Analysis of the characteristic thermogravimetric data (Tm, Wµand of the kinetic parameters (n, Ea) calculated from DTG and DTA data - with CuSO4·5H2O as a reference - demonstrated the existence of crystallization and anion water in the studied hydrates. The activation energy of the process of anion water elimination does not depend on the nature of the cation. This conclusion was confirmed by the absence of the compensation effect in this process.

Keywords: crystallization water, TG-DTG-DTA, kinetics, hydrates.

Physical Chemistry, University of Belgrade, Studentski trg 12, Belgrade, Yugoslavia

(Received 15 March 1999)
The hydriding kinetics of Zr1.02Ni0.98 alloy was examined in dependence on the number of hydriding/dehydriding cycles. The rate constants relating to three subsequent hydriding procedures of an alloy sample, at five temperatures: 423, 448, 473, 498 and 523 K, were determined. The rate constant increases, and the activation energy decreases on each repetition of the hydriding/dehydriding cycle at a given temperature. This behavior was explained by sample crushing, leading to an increase in the surface area accessible to hydrogen.

Keywords: hydriding/dehydriding, zirconium-nickel alloy, hydriding rate constant, activaiton energy.

Kinetics of pyrite oxidation by hydrogen peroxide in phosphoric acid solutions

1Copper Institute, Zeleni bulevar 35, YU-19210 Bor

(Received 16 February, revised 29 June 1999)
The kinetics of pyrite oxidation by hydrogen peroxide in phosphoric acid solutions were investigated. The effects of stirring, temperature, and particle size, as well as of the hydrogen peroxide and phosphoric acid concentrations were studied. The effect of phosphate ion addition was also examined. The oxidation kinetics was found to follow a shrinking core model, with the surface chemical reaciton as the rate-controlling step. This is in accord with an activation energy of 57 kJ mol-1 and a linear relationship between the rate constant and the reciprocal of the particle radius. The reaction order with respect to the hydrogen peroxide concentration was found to be equal to unity. Variation of the phosphoric acid concentration had practically no effect on the rate of pyrite oxidation. Addition of the phosphate ion in the relatively low concentration range (0.005-0.1 mol dm-3) had a highly negative influence on the rate of pyrite oxidation, indicating that this ion has an inhibiting effect on the oxidation of pyrite by hydrogen peroxide.

Key words: pyrite, oxidation, reaction kinetics, hydrogen peroxide, phosphoric acid.

Determination of the thermodynamic properties for Cr-Co-Me (Me = Mo, Al) systems by using the general solution model for predicting

DRAGANA T. ZIVKOVIC and ZIVAN D. ZIVKOVIC

(Received 9 February, revised 22 June 1999)
The results of the determination of the thermodynamic properties for ternary systems Cr-Co-Me (Me = Mo, Al) using a new general solution model for the predictions are presented in this work. For five sections (with mole ratio Co : Me = 2:8, 4:6, 5:5, 6:4, 8:2) investigated in each ternary system at temperature of 2000 K, integral molar excess Gibbs energies and partial molar thermodynamic properties of chromium were calculated.

Spectrophotometric study of the protonation processes of some indole derivatives in sulfuric acid

BLAGOJA S. ANDONOVSKI and GORAN M. STOJKOVIC

Institute of Chemistry, Faculty of National Sciences, University "Sv. Kiril i Metodij", P.O.Box 162, 91001 Skopje, Macedonia

(Received 30 October 1998, revised 8 July 1999)
The protonation of 3-methylindole, D-tryptophan, 3-formylindole, 3-acetylindole and indolyl-2-carboxylic acid in sulfuric acid media was studied by UV spectro-scopy. The measurement of the absorbance at four selected wavelengths enabled the calculation of the corresponding molar absorptivities. The results were used to calculate the pKa value of the protonated form of the indole derivatives by the Hammett Method. The Hammett postulate (the slope of the plot log [c(BH+)/c(B)] vs. H should be equal to 1) was tested. The dissociation constants and solvent parameter m* were also obtained by applying the Excess Acidity Method. The position of the additional protons in the protonated compounds is discussed.

Keywords: 3-methylindole, D-tryptophan, 3-formylindole, 3-acetylindole, indolyl-2-carboxylic acid, protonation, dissociation constants, solvent parameter, Hammett Acidity Function Method, Excess Acidity Method.

Vinca Institute of Nuclear Sciences, P.O. Box 522, YU-11001 Belgrade, Yugoslavia

(Received 10 June, revised 3 September 1999)
The interaction of tri-n-butyl phosphate (TBP) with diluents and its self-association have been investigated. The corresponding equilibrium constants were determined and used to calculate the concentration of TBP monomer. The calculated TBP monomer concentrations correspond to the TBP activities published in the literature.

Keywords: self-association, association, tri-n-butyl phosphate (TBP), extraction model, TBP activity.

(Received 24 June 1999)
A method for the calculation of the depth of the current line penetration between the edges of the electrodes and the side walls of the cell in a cell with plane parallel electrode arrangement is proposed. The method is verified by the calculation of the polarization curves for the cells in which the electrode edges do not touch the side walls of the cell. The agreement between the calculated and the measured values was fair.

Keywords: metal electrodeposition, electrochemical cell, current distribution.

Application of the MvdW1 and HVOS-NRTL mixing rules to the simultaneous correlation of excess enthalpies and W-shaped excess heat capacities data of 1,3-dioxolane + n-alkane systems

(Received 12 September 1999)
The Peng-Robinson-Stryjek-Vera (PRSV) equation of state (EOS) coupled with a modified two parameter van der Waals one-fluid mixing rule (MvdW1) and the Huron-Vidal-Orbey-Sandler mixing rule incorporating the NRTL equation as a GE model was used for the correlation of excess enthalpy (HE), excess heat capacity (CpE) and the simultaneous correlation of both properties. All calculations with temperature dependent parameters of EOS models were applied to 1,3-dioxolane+n-alkane systems.
The correlation of the HE and CpE data alone with four coefficients and the HE+CpE data with six coefficients of the temperature dependent parameters of the HVOS-NRTL models could be considered as very satisfactory.

Keywords: equation of state, mixing rule, excess properties, 1,3-dioxolane, n-alkane.
