TABLE OF CONTENTS This appendix contains selected property values; many of these have been used to compare the methods of the text. It is limited to those pure substances for which an experimentally validated critical temperature is listed in the Thermodynamics Research Center (TRC) data bank, College Station, TX, USA, or in the other reliable sources listed below. The values have been published with permission of TRC. Not all properties are experimentally available for all substances listed, but some estimates have been made with the methods described in the main body.
The Formula listing for the substances has the atoms in alphabetical order except H follows C; the table has the species' formula in alphabetical order. The Name used is from the IUPAC as given by TRC, although we have also given common names for some substances.
Our symbols, fonts and equations are given below. The standard-state Gibbs energy and enthalpy of formation are for the species as an ideal gas at 298.15 K and 1.01325 bar (1 atmosphere). The reference states for the elements are as follows:
Ideal gases at 298.15 K and 1.01325 bar: Ar, Cl 2, D 2, F 2, He, H 2, Kr, Ne, O 2, Rn, T 2, Xe.
Crystalline solid at 298.15 K and 1.01325 bar: Al, As, B, C, I 2, P, S, Se, Si, Ti, U
Saturated Liquid at 298.15 K: Br 2, Hg
