Sažetak

The relationships between different assumed stoichiometries of charging the metal oxide/aqueous solution interface are discussed. The problem of evaluating the enthalpies of protonation, A H° and deprotonation, Adfl“ of surface amphotheric groups was analyzed. In order to obtain the standard values of reaction enthalpies, one needs to add the base (or acid) to the acidic (or basic) suspension in calorimeter in such a manner that the point of zero charge (p.z.c.) lies precisely in the middle between the initial and the final pH. The value of AAH° - A H° evaluated by this procedure corresponds to the enthalpy difference obtained from the p.z.c. dependence on temperature. The results with silica suspension were demonstrated. The value obtained by calorimetry, AdH° - ApH° = 34.4 kJ mol-1, agrees with the result of the pHpzc(T) measurements (32.5 kJ mol-1).
