  1. I just have a quick question regarding the molar volume in 'thermo.dat' of the jarosites

     

    I have coppied and pasted the values:

     

    Jarosite-K type= sulfate

    formula= KFe3(SO4)2(OH)6

    mole vol.= 153.200 cc mole wt.= 500.7983 g

    5 species in reaction

    2.000 SO4-- 3.000 Fe+++ 6.000 H2O

    1.000 K+ -6.000 H+

    -5.8197 -8.8889 -12.4748 -15.7308

    -18.9953 -21.8913 500.0000 500.0000

     

    Jarosite-Na type= sulfate

    formula= NaFe3(SO4)2(OH)6

    mole vol.= 469.050 cc mole wt.= 484.6898 g

    5 species in reaction

    2.000 SO4-- 3.000 Fe+++ 6.000 H2O

    1.000 Na+ -6.000 H+

    -4.8714 -4.8714 500.0000 500.0000

    500.0000 500.0000 500.0000 500.0000

     

     

    My question is how would one obtain a Jar-Na mol vol of 469.050 cc? while Jar-K is 153.200 cc and they are roughly the same mol wt and density.

     

    I am also trying to add schwertmannite to this dataset if anyone knows of thermo data that contains it - I am using GWB v6.

     

    Thankyou!
