The solubility of the quaternary system RbCl-NdCl 3 -HCl(13.26 %)-H 2 O at 298.15 K was determined, and the corresponding equilibrium diagram was constructed. The quaternary system consists of three equilibrium solid phases, RbCl, RbNdCl 4 • 4H 2 O (1:1 type), and NdCl 3 • 6H 2 O. The new solid phase compound RbNdCl 4 • 4H 2 O was found to be congruently soluble in the system. The compound RbNdCl 4 • 4H 2 O was characterized by X-ray diffraction, X-ray diffraction single crystal structure analysis, thermogravimetry, and differential thermogravimetry. It belongs to an orthorhombic system, with space group P21212, a ) 0.6986(6) nm, b ) 1.1319(1) nm, c ) 0.6665(6) nm, Dc ) 2.795 g • cm -3 , and Z ) 2. The compound loses its crystal water by one step at (370 to 474) K. The standard molar enthalpy of solution of RbNdCl 4 • 4H 2 O in deionized water was measured to be -(26.97 ( 0.24) kJ • mol -1 by heat conduction microcalorimetry. Its standard molar enthalpy of formation was calculated to be -(2732.3 ( 1.0) kJ • mol -1 .
