Abstract
Heat capacities, entropies, free energies, total energies and dissociation constants have been calculated for H2H2 and for H1H2, to 3000°K, by reliable methods and are listed in tabular form. The ortho‐para equilibrium in H2H2 has been considered for both the gaseous and the solid states. The solid state equilibrium has been discussed from the point of view of its bearing on the application of the third law of thermodynamics. The rotational heat capacity curves of the various forms of H2H2 and that of H1H2 are shown graphically and are compared with the rotational heat capacity curve of ordinary hydrogen and with the hypothetical rotational specific heats of gaseous nitrogen. The heavy molecules, H2H2 and H1H2, dissociate to only about one‐half the extent of H1H1 below 3000°K. The three hydrogen molecules are compared with respect to the influences of molecular stretching and of anharmonic vibration in the high temperature heat capacities. We also include tables which show the distributions of molecules among the vibrational levels as a function of the temperature.Keywords
