Abstract

The standard molar Gibbs energy of formation of LiRbF2(s) has been determined using an EMF technique. For this purpose, fluoride cell has been constructed using CaF2(s) as the solid electrolyte. From the measured EMF values and required Gibbs energy data available in the literature, ∆f G o m(T) for LiRbF2(s) has been calculated. To determine the stability domains of LiRbF2(s), the binary and ternary phase diagram and chemical potential diagrams of Li-Rb-F-O system were calculated by the CALPHAD method and FactSage software.
