The thermodynamic properties for Nd 2 (MoO 4) 3 were investigated. Nd 2 (MoO 4) 3 is one of the end member of the yellow phases which are known as hygroscopic harmful phases in the nuclear fuel waste glasses. The standard molar entropy, Á T 0 S m , at 298.15 K of Nd 2 (MoO 4) 3 was determined by measuring its isobaric heat capacities, C p;m , from 2 K via the fitting functions including the Debye-Einstein formula and electronic-as well as magnetic terms. The Neel temperature, T N , estimated by extrapolating the magnetic-term in the fitting function. Its standard Gibbs energy of formation, Á f G m , was determined by combining Á T 0 S m datum with the standard enthalpy of formation, Á f H m , which were estimated from ones for Ce 2 (MoO 4) 3 and Sm 2 (MoO 4) 3. The unknown standard Gibbs energy of solution, Á sol G m , at 298.15 K of Nd 2 (MoO 4) 3 was predicted from the reference data for MoO 4 2¹ (aq) and Nd 3+ (aq). The obtained thermodynamic values are as follows: Á T 0 S m (Nd 2 (MoO 4) 3 (cr), 298.15 K)/(J K ¹1 mol ¹1) = 439.29 « 4.39 Á f G m (Nd 2 (MoO 4) 3 (cr), 298.15 K)/(kJ mol ¹1) = ¹4072.13 « 6.14 Á sol G m (Nd 2 (MoO 4) 3 , 298.15 K)/(kJ (mol of MoO 4 2¹ (aq)) ¹1) = 73.12 « 2.33 T N /K = 1.55 « 0.16 The data obtained in the present work are expected to be useful for geochemical simulations of the diffusion of radioactive elements through underground water.
