Abstract
Some empirical relationships dealing with the heats of formation of crystalline compounds are interrelated. A more general relation based upon functions derived from heats of formation and applicable to dissolved species as well as crystals is described. The relation may be used as a criterion for thermal data and for estimation of heats of formation. Deviations of literature values from those predicted by the relation are discussed in the light of structural features.
