Abstract
Titration calorimetry has been utilized to study the aqueous solution chemistry of the Th4++F− system. Enthalpies of the first three complexation reactions have been measured at an ionic strength of 0.5M at 25°C, and corresponding entropy values have been calculated. Results for the first complex are in good agreement with an established electrostatic model of metal-fluoride bonding.
