STUDY OF NITRATION EQUILIBRIUM IN THE GLYCERIN-AQUEOUS NITRIC ACID SYSTEM. 2. CHANGES IN ΔH AND ΔS IN THE NITRATION REACTION

Article abstract of DOI:10.1007/BF00961478

The real enthalpies of seven sequential-parallel reactions of nitration of glycerin into glycerin trinitrate were found by combination of the heats of the reactions obtained by the thermochemical method and with the equation for the isobar of the chemical reaction, and the standard enthalpies of formation of glycerin nitrates were calculated with them.The difference in the enthalpies of nitration with respect to different positions in glycerin and its nitrates basically determines the difference in the corresponding equilibrium constants of the nitration reactions.
