Abstract:
Metastable ZnO-Lin-2MeOn-1 (Me = Sc3+, Ti4+, Ta5+) solid solutions with a rock-salt structure were synthesized through the solid-state reaction of ZnO with Lin-2Men+On-1 (n = 3, 4, 5) complex oxides at 7.7 GPa and 1300-1500 K. In all investigated systems, single-phase rock-salt solid solutions can be quenched down to ambient conditions in a wide (up to 80 mol% ZnO) concentration range. The phase composition, thermal stability, and thermal expansion of the recovered rock-salt solid solutions were studied by synchrotron powder X-ray diffraction. At ambient pressure, these solid solutions exhibit high thermal stability (up to 1000 K), with the decomposition temperature and decomposition products depending on the nature of the multiple charge cations.

03:12Freezing Point Depression and Boiling Point Elevation
The boiling point of a liquid is the temperature at which its vapor pressure is equal to ambient atmospheric pressure. Since the vapor pressure of a solution is lowered due to the presence of nonvolatile solutes, it stands to reason that the solution’s boiling point will subsequently be increased. Vapor pressure increases with temperature, and so a solution will require a higher temperature than will pure solvent to achieve any given vapor pressure, including one...

02:19Physical Properties Affecting Solubility
As for any solution, the solubility of a gas in a liquid is affected by the attractive intermolecular forces between solute and solvent species. Unlike solid and liquid solutes, however, there is no solute-solute intermolecular attraction to overcome when a gaseous solute dissolves in a liquid solvent since the atoms or molecules comprising a gas are far separated and experience negligible interactions. Consequently, solute-solvent interactions are the sole...
