Ion composition of saturated vapor of salt systems: Calculation of the work function and ion pressure

“…The latter value is characteristic for each particular case. In this example, P(Na) was calculated from the equilib rium constant of the reduction reaction of sodium flu oride with nickel [4]. Its error consists of the errors for the enthalpy and reduced thermodynamic potential of this reaction, is estimated by factor 2.3, and contrib utes 0.05 eV to the error of ϕ.…”

“…All experiments were carried out in the cycles "heating-cooling-inflow of atmospheric air." An example for the system of NaF-Na 3 AlF 6 is shown and commented on in [4].…”

“…This is an obvious external reason for strong divergence of the results with the calculated values. Most likely, the equilibrium pressures of ions cannot be reached because of the great activity of accumulated cerium and the rapid reduction of potassium [4]. 2 The same chamber was used in the remaining experiments.…”

“…The dependence of ϕ on the chamber material and small additions and impurities in the system under study is described with examples in [4]. In this paper, we continue consideration of the relation between the pressure of alkali metals and the work function of the chamber inner surface, which was started in [4].…”
