Abstract

The standard enthalpy of formation of stannite (Cu2FeSnS4) was calculated from the calorimetric measurements of the reactions of its formation from simple synthetic sulfides: Cu2S + FeS2 + SnS → Cu2FeSnS4 and 2CuS + FeS + SnS → Cu2FeSnS4. Using published data for the binary sulfides, the standard enthalpy of formation of stannite from the elements was determined as ΔfH°298.15(Cu2FeSnS4) =–(417.28 ± 2.28) kJ mol–1.
