Abstract

We have measured enthalpies of dilution of aqueous sulfamic acid solutions at 25°C and used results of these measurements to calculate the standard enthalpy of ionization of sulfamic acid. The average ΔH 01on obtained in this work was 735±200 J-mol−1. We have also measured enthalpies of solution of crystalline sulfamic acid in water at 25°C. The results from both measurements are combined with some earlier results from Wu and Hepler to obtain a ‘best value’ for the standard enthalpy of solution, ΔH 0S =19.2±0.2 kJ-mol−1.
