Abstract

Methods are described for the prediction of standard Gibbs free energies of formation of monatomic and polyatomic ions in liquid ammonia at 25°C. Supplementation with auxiliary free energy data allows the tabulation of standard electrode potentials in 1 m acid liquid ammonia solutions for 143 half-reactions involving 58 elements.
