Abstract
Several recent publications from this laboratory have reported developments in the capacity to calculate thermodynamic and kinetic parameters, such as rate constant, enthalpy, order of reaction, from isothermal micro-calorimetric data. To date these developments have all been associated with the calculation of the desired parameters from solution phase reactions. This paper furthers these developments to a theoretical consideration of solid-state reactions and the calculation of the values for the rate coefficient, k, the fitting parameters m and n, the total number of joules released over the lifetime of reaction, Q, and hence either the specific enthalpy or the molar enthalpy of reaction, H.
