Liquidus relationships in the system CaCO₃Ca(OH)₂CaS and the solubility of sulfur in carbonatite magmas     

George R. Helz  Peter J. Wyllie 《Geochimica et cosmochimica acta》1979,43(2):259-265

CaCO₃Ca(OH)₂CaS serves as a model system for sulfide solubility in carbonatite magmas. Experiments at 1 kbar delineate fields for primary crystallization of CaCO₃, Ca(OH)₂ and CaS. The three fields meet at a ternary eutectic at 652°C with liquid composition (wt%): CaCO₃ = 46.1%, Ca(OH)₂ = 51.9%, CaS = 2.0%. Two crystallization sequences are possible for liquids that precipitate calcite, depending upon whether the liquid is on the low-CaS side, or the high-CaS side of the line connecting CaCO₃ to the eutectic liquid. Low-CaS liquids precipitate no sulfide until the eutectic temperature is reached leading to sulfide enrichment. The higher-CaS liquids precipitate some sulfide above the eutectic temperature, but the sulfide content of the melt is not greatly depleted as the eutectic temperature is approached. Theoretical considerations indicate that sulfide solubility in carbonate melts will be directly proportional to and inversely proportional to ; it also is likely to be directly proportional to melt basicity, defined here by . A strong similarity exists in the processes which control sulfide solubility in carbonate and in silicate melts. By analogy with silicates, ferrous iron, which was absent in our experiments, may also exert an important influence on sulfide solubility in natural carbonatite magmas.  相似文献   

Rates of reaction of pyrite and marcasite with ferric iron at pH 2     

C.L Wiersma  J.D Rimstidt 《Geochimica et cosmochimica acta》1984,48(1):85-92

The relative reactivities of pulverized samples (100–200 mesh) of 3 marcasite and 7 pyrite specimens from various sources were determined at 25°C and pH 2.0 in ferric chloride solutions with initial ferric iron concentrations of 10^?3 molal. The rate of the reaction: was determined by calculating the rate of reduction of aqueous ferric ion from measured oxidation-reduction potentials. The reaction follows the rate law: where m_Fe³⁺ is the molal concentration of uncomplexed ferric iron, k is the rate constant and $\text{A}\text{M}$ is the surface area of reacting solid to mass of solution ratio. The measured rate constants, k, range from 1.0 × 10^?4 to 2.7 × 10^?4 sec^?1 ± 5%, with lower-temperature/early diagenetic pyrite having the smallest rate constants, marcasite intermediate, and pyrite of higher-temperature hydrothermal and metamorphic origin having the greatest rate constants. Geologically, these small relative differences between the rate constants are not significant, so the fundamental reactivities of marcasite and pyrite are not appreciably different.The activation energy of the reaction for a hydrothermal pyrite in the temperature interval of 25 to 50°C is 92 kJ mol^?1. This relatively high activation energy indicates that a surface reaction controls the rate over this temperature range. The BET-measured specific surface area for lower-temperature/early diagenetic pyrite is an order of magnitude greater than that for pyrite of higher-temperature origin. Consequently, since the lower-temperature types have a much greater $\text{A}\text{M}$ ratio, they appear to be more reactive per unit mass than the higher temperature types.  相似文献   

Constantes de formation des complexes hydroxydés de l'aluminium en solution aqueuse de 20 a 70°C     

Yves Couturier  Gil Michard  Gérard Sarazin 《Geochimica et cosmochimica acta》1984,48(4):649-659

Stability constants of hydroxocomplexes of Al(III):Al(OH)²⁺ and A1(OH)₄^? have been measured in the 20–70°C temperature range by reactions involving only dissolved species. The stability constant ${}^1\text{K}{}_1$ of the first complex ion is studied by measuring pH of solutions of aluminium salts at several concentrations. ${}^1\text{β}{}_4$ of aluminate ion is deduced from equilibrium constants of the reaction between the trioxalato aluminium (III) complex ion and Al³⁺ in acid medium, and between the same complex ion and A1(OH)₄^? in alkaline medium. The K values and the associated ΔH are ${}^1\text{K}{}_1\text{= 10}{}^{\mathrm{?5.00}}$ and ΔH₁ = 11.8 Kcal; ${}^1\text{β}{}_4\text{= 10}{}^{\mathrm{?22.20}}$ and ΔH₄ = 42.45 Kcal. These last results are not in agreement with the values of recent tables for $\text{ΔG}{}^0\text{?}$ and $\text{ΔH}{}^0\text{?}$ of Al³⁺ and Al(OH)₄^?. We suggest a consistent set of data for dissolved and solid Al species and for some aluminosilicates.  相似文献   

Density calculations for silicate liquids. I. Revised method for aluminosilicate compositions     

Y Bottinga  D Weill  P Richet 《Geochimica et cosmochimica acta》1982,46(6):909-919

Equations are developed for calculating the density of aluminosilicate liquids as a function of composition and temperature. The mean molar volume at reference temperature T_r, is given by $\text{V}{}_{\mathrm{r}}\text{= ∑X}{}_{\mathrm{i}}\text{V}\text{?}{}^{\mathrm{o}}{}_{\mathrm{i}}\text{+ X}{}_{\mathrm{A}}\text{V}\text{?}{}^{\mathrm{o}}{}_{\mathrm{A}}$, where the summation is taken over all oxide components except A1₂O₃, X stands for mole fraction, terms are constants derived independently from an analysis of volume-composition relations in alumina-free silicate liquids, and $\text{V}\text{?}{}^{\mathrm{o}}{}_{\mathrm{A}}$ is the composition-dependent apparent partial molar volume of Al₂O₃. The thermal expansion coefficient of aluminosilicate liquids is given by $\text{α = ∑X}{}_{\mathrm{i}}\text{}\text{?}\text{ga}{}_{\mathrm{i}}{}^{\mathrm{o}}\text{+ X}{}_{\mathrm{A}}\text{}\text{?}\text{ga}{}_{\mathrm{A}}{}^{\mathrm{o}}$, where $\text{}\text{?}\text{ga}{}_{\mathrm{i}}{}^{\mathrm{o}}$ terms are constants independent of temperature and composition, and $\text{}\text{?}\text{ga}{}^{\mathrm{o}}{}_{\mathrm{A}}$ is a composition-dependent term representing the effect of Al₂O₃ on the thermal expansion. Parameters necessary to calculate the volume of silicate liquids at any temperature T according to V(T) = V_rexp[α(T-T_r)], where T_r = 1400°C have been evaluated by least-square analysis of selected density measurements in aluminosilicate melts. Mean molar volumes of aluminosilicate liquids calculated according to the model equation conform to experimentally measured volumes with a root mean square difference of 0.28 $\text{cc}\text{mole}$ and an average absolute difference of 0.90% for 248 experimental observations. The compositional dependence of $\text{V}\text{?}{}^{\mathrm{o}}{}_{\mathrm{A}}$ is discussed in terms of several possible interpretations of the structural role of Al³⁺ in aluminosilicate melts.  相似文献   

The effect of pressure on the solubility of minerals in water and seawater     

Frank J Millero 《Geochimica et cosmochimica acta》1982,46(1):11-22

The effect of presure on the solubility of minerals in water and seawater can be estimated from In where the volume (ΔV) and compressibility (ΔK) changes at atmospheric pressure (P = 0) are given by Values of the partial molal volume ($\text{V}\text{?}$) and compressibilty ($\text{K}\text{?}$) in water and seawater have been tabulated for some ions from 0 to 50°C. The compressibility change is quite large (~10 × 10^?3 cm³ bar^?1 mol^?1) for the solubility of most minerals. This large compressibility change accounts for the large differences observed between values of ΔV obtained from linear plots of In K_sp versus P and molal volume data (Macdonald and North, 1974; North, 1974). Calculated values of $\text{K}{}^{\mathrm{P}}{}_{\mathrm{sp}}\text{K}{}^{\mathrm{o}}{}_{\mathrm{sp}}$ for the solubility of CaCO₃, SrSO₄ and CaF₂ in water were found to be in good agreement with direct measurements (Macdonald and North, 1974). Similar calculations for the solubility of minerals in seawater are also in good agreement with direct measurements (Ingle, 1975) providing that the surface of the solid phase is not appreciably altered.  相似文献   

Revised values for the Gibbs free energy of formation of [Al(OH)_{4 aq}⁻], diaspore,boehmite and bayerite at 298.15 K and 1 bar,the thermodynamic properties of kaolinite to 800 K and 1 bar,and the heats of solution of several gibbsite samples     

Bruce S. Hemingway  Richard A. Robie  James A. Kittrick 《Geochimica et cosmochimica acta》1978,42(10):1533-1543

Solution calorimetric measurements compared with solubility determinations from the literature for the same samples of gibbsite have provided a direct thermochemical cycle through which the Gibbs free energy of formation of [Al(OH)_{4 aq}^?] can be determined. The Gibbs free energy of formation of [Al(OH)_{4 aq}^?] at 298.15 K is ?1305 ± 1 kJ/mol. These heat-of-solution results show no significant difference in the thermodynamic properties of gibbsite particles in the range from 50 to 0.05 μm.The Gibbs free energies of formation at 298.15 K and 1 bar pressure of diaspore, boehmite and bayerite are ?9210 ± 5.0, ?918.4 ± 2.1 and ?1153 ± 2 kJ/mol based upon the Gibbs free energy of [A1(OH)_{4 aq}^?] calculated in this paper and the acceptance of ?1582.2 ± 1.3 and ?1154.9 ± 1.2 kJ/mol for the Gibbs free energy of formation of corundum and gibbsite, respectively.Values for the Gibbs free energy formation of [Al(OH)_{2 aq}⁺] and [AlO_{2 aq}^?] were also calculated as ?914.2 ± 2.1 and ?830.9 ± 2.1 kJ/mol, respectively. The use of [AlC_{2 aq}^?] as a chemical species is discouraged.A revised Gibbs free energy of formation for [H₄SiO_4aq⁰] was recalculated from calorimetric data yielding a value of ?1307.5 ± 1.7 kJ/mol which is in good agreement with the results obtained from several solubility studies.Smoothed values for the thermodynamic functions C_P⁰, ($\text{H}{}_{\mathrm{T}}{}^0\text{- H}{}_{298}{}^0\text{)}\text{T}$, $\text{(}\text{G}{}_{\mathrm{T}}{}^0\text{- H}{}_{298}{}^0\text{)}\text{T}$, S_T⁰ - S₀⁰, $\text{ΔH}{}_{\mathrm{?,298}}{}^0$ kaolinite are listed at integral temperatures between 298.15 and 800 K. The heat capacity of kaolinite at temperatures between 250 and 800 K may be calculated from the following equation: C_P⁰ = 1430.26 ? 0.78850 T + 3.0340 × 10^?4T² ?1.85158 × 10^?4T²$\text{1}\text{2}\text{+ 8.3341 × 10}{}^6\text{T}{}^{\mathrm{?2}}$.The thermodynamic properties of most of the geologically important Al-bearing phases have been referenced to the same reference state for Al, namely gibbsite.  相似文献   

The ionization of acids in estuarine waters     

Frank J Millero 《Geochimica et cosmochimica acta》1981,45(11):2085-2089

The stoichiometric, $\text{K}{}_{\mathrm{HA}}{}^1$, and apparent, K'_HA, constants for the ionization of a number of weak acids (NH₄⁺, HSO₄^?, HF, H₂O, B(OH)₃, H₂CO₃, HCO₃^?, H₃PO₄, H₂PO₄^?, HPO₄², H₃AsO₄ H₂AsO₄^? and HAsO₄^2?) in seawater at 25°C diluted with water have been fitted to equations of the form (Millero, 1979). In $\text{K}{}_{\mathrm{HA}}{}^1\text{= In K}{}_{\mathrm{HA}}\text{+ AS}{}^{\mathrm{<mtext>1</mtext><mtext>2</mtext>}}\text{+ BS}$ where In K_HA is the thermodynamic constant in water, S is the salinity, A and B are adjustable parameters. The validity of this equation in estuarine waters has been examined by using an ion pairing model (Millero and Schreiber, 1981). The calculated values of $\text{K}{}_{\mathrm{HA}}{}^1$ and K'_HA at S = 35%. are in good agreement with the measured values for all the systems examined. The equation used to extrapolate the measured values to pure water K_HA predicted values that agreed with those determined by using the ion pairing model. The exception was the ionization of HPO₄^2? due to the strong interactions of Ca²⁺ and Mg²⁺ with PO₄^3?. The differences in the predicted values of $\text{K}{}_{\mathrm{HA}}{}^1$ in seawater diluted with pure water and average river water were very small for all the acids except HPO₄^2? (the maximum ΔpK = 0.96 in average river water). The larger difference in the $\text{K}{}_{\mathrm{HA}}{}^1$ for HPO₄^2? in river waters is due to the strong interactions of Ca²⁺ and PO₄^3?.  相似文献   

The kinetics of the oxidation of ferrous iron in synthetic and natural waters     

W Davison  G Seed 《Geochimica et cosmochimica acta》1983,47(1):67-79

The rate of oxidation of ferrous iron in a seasonally anoxic lake was measured on 39 occasions with respect to both depth and time. Sample disturbance was minimal as only oxygen had to be introduced to initiate the reaction. The data were consistent with the simple rate law for homogeneous chemical kinetics previously established for synthetic solutions. The rate constant for the oxidation reaction in lake water was indistinguishable from that measured in synthetic samples. It did not appear to be influenced by changes in the microbial populations or by changes in any particulate or soluble components in the water, including iron and manganese. Analysis of the errors inherent in the kinetic measurements showed that the estimation of pH was the major source of inaccuracy and that values of the rate constant determined by different workers could easily differ by a factor of six.The present data, together with a comprehensive survey of the literature, are used to suggest a ‘universal’ rate constant of ca. 2 × 10¹³ M^?2 atm^?1 min^?1 (range 1.5–3 × 10¹³) in the rate law $\text{?d[Fe II]}\text{dt}\text{= k[Fe II]pO}{}_2\text{(OH?)}{}^2$ for natural freshwaters in the pH range 6.5–7.4. Discrepancies in the effects of ionic strength and interfering substances reported in the literature are highlighted. Generally substances have only been found to interfere at concentrations which far exceed those in most natural waters.  相似文献   

Stability of ethylxanthate ion in neutral and weakly acidic media. Part 1: Influence of pH     

M. Maillot  J.-L. Cecile  R. Bloise 《International Journal of Mineral Processing》1984,13(3):193-210

Xanthates are used in the flotation of sulfide ores although their aqueous solutions are not stable under certain conditions. Their stability in acidic and weakly acidic aqueous solutions was therefore investigated, as these media are required for some processes.The peak absorbances of ethylxanthate ion and carbon disulfide were first determined in aqueous solution. The decomposition of ethylxanthate ion was analyzed by measuring variations in absorbance (at 301 nm) and pH with respect to time. A pH regulation system was then used while measuring variations in absorbance and productions of protons caused by xanthate decomposition.The results concerning xanthate half-lives show good agreement with the literature, but the kinetic results deviate substantially. The following relation was obtained for half-life: We established that ethylxanthate decomposition at pH 4 is a first order reaction with respect to ethylxanthate concentration, and postulating this order to the other pH values, the following kinetic relation was found: where v is the rate of decomposition (mol l^?1 min^?1), and [EtX^?]_∞ is the ethylxanthate concentration when the decomposition equilibria are reached (mol l^?1). The better concentration was found to obey the law:   相似文献   

Fractionation of stable carbon isotopes by marine phytoplankton     

William W. Wong  William M. Sackett 《Geochimica et cosmochimica acta》1978,42(12):1809-1815

Stable carbon isotope fractionation by seventeen species of marine phytoplankton, representing the classes of Bacillariophyceae, Chlorophyceae, Prasinophyceae, Chrysophyceae, Haptophyceae and Dinophyceae have been determined in laboratory culture experiments using bicarbonate enriched artificial sea water. The values (Δ_HCO3^? = δ¹³C of algae vs HCO₃^?) range from ?22.1 to ?35.5%. Nitzschia closterium shows the smallest fractionation of ? 22.1% and Isochrysis galbana, the greatest of ?35.5%,. Since these algae were cultured under identical laboratory conditions, the wide range of Δ_HCO3^? values is seemingly due to the presence of different metabolic pathways within these organisms.A temperature dependent fractionation of 0.36% per °C with decreasing temperatures was measured for Skeletonema costatum whereas, smaller temperature dependencies of ?0.13, +0.15 and ?0.07%. per °C were observed for Dunaliella sp., Monochrysis lutheri and Glenodinium foliaceum, respectively.The consistency of values of Skeletonema costatum, Dunaliella sp. and Monochrysis lutheri grown at salinities of 22, 26, 32 and 36% indicates that natural salinity variations have negligible effects on the isotopic composition of marine phytoplankton.  相似文献   

Gibbsite solubility and thermodynamic properties of hydroxy-aluminum ions in aqueous solution at 25°C     

Howard M. May  Philip A. Helmke  Marion L. Jackson 《Geochimica et cosmochimica acta》1979,43(6):861-868

Solubility curves were determined for a synthetic gibbsite and a natural gibbsite (Minas Gerais, Brazil) from pH 4 to 9, in 0.2% gibbsite suspensions in 0.01 M NaNO₃ that were buffered by low concentrations of non-complexing buffer agents. Equilibrium solubility was approached from oversaturation (in suspensions spiked with Al(NO₃)₃ solution), and also from undersaturation in some synthetic gibbsite suspensions. Mononuclear Al ion concentrations and pH values were periodically determined. Within 1 month or less, data from over-and undersaturated suspensions of synthetic gibbsite converged to describe an equilibrium solubility curve. A downward shift of the solubility curve, beginning at pH 6.7, indicates that a phase more stable than gibbsite controls Al solubility in alkaline systems. Extrapolation of the initial portion of the high-pH side of the synthetic gibbsite solubility curve provides the first unified equilibrium experimental model of Al ion speciation in waters from pH 4 to 9.The significant mononuclear ion species at equilibrium with gibbsite are Al³⁺, AlOH²⁺, Al(OH)⁺₂ and Al(OH)^?₄, and their ion activity products are $\text{1K}{}_{50}\text{= 1.29 × 10}{}^8$, $\text{1K}{}_{\mathrm{s1}}\text{= 1.33 × 10}{}^3$, $\text{1K}{}_{\mathrm{s2}}\text{= 9.49 × 10}{}^{\mathrm{?3}}$ and $\text{1K}{}_{\mathrm{s4}}\text{= 8.94 × 10}{}^{\mathrm{?15}}$. The calculated standard Gibbs free energies of formation (ΔG°_f) for the synthetic gibbsite and the A1OH²⁺, Al(OH)⁺₂ and Al(OH)^?₄ ions are ?276.0, ?166.9, ?216.5 and ?313.5 kcal mol^?1, respectively. These ΔG°_f values are based on the recently revised ΔG°_f value for Al³⁺ (?117.0 ± 0.3 kcal mol_?1) and carry the same uncertainty. The ΔG°_f of the natural gibbsite is ?275.1 ± 0.4 kcal mol^?, which suggests that a range of ΔG°_f values can exist even for relatively simple natural minerals.  相似文献   

Solubility product of galena at 298°K: A possible explanation for apparent supersaturation in nature     

A.D. Uhler  G.R. Helz 《Geochimica et cosmochimica acta》1984,48(6):1155-1160

The synthetic chelating agent ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) has been used to evaluate the stoichiometric solubility product of galena (PbS) at 298°K: $\text{K}{}_{\mathrm{s2}}\text{=}{}^{\mathrm{a}}\text{Pb}{}^{\mathrm{2+}}{}^{\mathrm{a}}\text{HS}{}^{\mathrm{?}}{}^{\mathrm{a}}\text{H}{}^{\mathrm{+}}$ This method circumvents the possible uncertainties in the stoichiometry and stability of lead sulfide complexes. At infinite dilution, $\text{Log K}{}_{\mathrm{s2}}\text{= ?12.25 ±0.17}$, and at an ionic strength corresponding to seawater ($\text{I = 0.7 M}$), $\text{Log K}{}_{\mathrm{s2}}\text{= ?11.73 ± 0.05}$. Using the value of $\text{K}{}_{\mathrm{s2}}$ at infinite dilution, and the free energies of formation of HS^? and Pb²⁺ at 298°K (literature values), the free energy of formation of PbS at 298°K is computed to be $\text{?79.1 ± 0.8 KJ/mol (?18.9 Kcal/mol)}$. Galena is shown to be more than two orders of magnitude more soluble than indicated by calculations based on previous thermodynamic data.  相似文献   

Distribution coefficients of Eu and Sr for plagioclase-liquid and clinopyroxene-liquid equilibria in oceanic ridge basalt: an experimental study     

Richard J. Williams 《Geochimica et cosmochimica acta》1974,38(9):1415-1433

The distribution coefficients of Eu and Sr for plagioclase-liquid and clinopyroxene-liquid pairs as a function of temperature and oxygen fugacity were experimentally investigated using an oceanic ridge basalt enriched with Eu and Sr as the starting material. Experiments were conducted between 1190° and 1140°C over a range of oxygen fugacities between 10^?8 and 10^?14 atm.The molar distribution coefficients are given by the equations: log^PL_Sr = 7320/T ? 4.62logK^CPX_Sr = 18020/T ? 13.10. Similarly, the weight fraction distribution coefficients are given by the equations: logD^PL_Sr = 6570/T ? 4.30logD^CPX_Sr = 18434/T ? 13.62.Although the mole fraction distribution coefficients have a smaller dependence on bulk composition than do the weight fraction distribution coefficients, they are not independent of bulk composition, thereby restricting the application of these experimental results to rocks similar to oceanic ridge basalts in bulk composition.Because the Sr distribution coefficients are independent of oxygen fugacity, they may be used as geothermometers. If the temperature can be determined independently — for example, with the Sr distribution coefficients, the Eu distribution coefficients may be used as oxygen geobarometers. Throughout the range of oxygen fugacities ascribed to terrestrial and lunar basalts, plagioclase concentrates Eu but clinopyroxene rejects Eu.  相似文献   

Prediction of Gibbs free energies of calcite-type carbonates and the equilibrium distribution of trace elements between carbonates and aqueous solutions     

Dimitri A Sverjensky 《Geochimica et cosmochimica acta》1984,48(5):1127-1134

A linear correlation exists between the standard Gibbs free energies of formation of calcite-type carbonates (MCO3) and the corresponding conventional standard Gibbs free energies of formation of the aqueous divalent cations (M2+) at 25 °C and 1 bar ΔGMCO30 = m(ΔGf,M2+0) ? 141,200 cal · mole?1 where m is equal to 0.9715. This relationship enables prediction of the standard free energies of formation of numerous hypothetical carbonates with the calcite structure. Associated uncertainties typically range from about ± 250 to 600 cal · mole?1. An important consequence of the above correlation is that the thermodynamic equilibrium constant for the distribution of two trace elements M and N between carbonate mineral and aqueous solution at 25 °C and 1 bar is proportional to the free energy difference between the corresponding two aqueous ions: In Combination of predicted standard free energies, entropies and volumes of carbonate minerals at 25°C and 1 bar with standard free energies of aqueous ions and the equation of state in Helgesonet al. (1981) enables prediction of the thermodynamic equilibrium constant for trace element distribution between carbonates and aqueous solutions at elevated temperatures and pressures. Interpretation of the thermodynamic equilibrium constant in terms of concentration ratios in the aqueous phase is considerably simplified if pairs of divalent trace elements are considered that have very similar ionic radii (e.g., $\text{Sr}{}^{\mathrm{2+}}\text{Pb}{}^{\mathrm{2+}}$, $\text{Mg}{}^{\mathrm{2+}}\text{Zn}{}^{\mathrm{2+}}$). In combination with data for the stabilities of complex ions in aqueous solutions, the above calculations enable useful limits to be placed on the concentrations of trace elements in hydrothermal solutions.  相似文献   

Diffusion of ions in sea water and in deep-sea sediments   总被引：3，自引：0，他引：3  

Sandra Gregory 《Geochimica et cosmochimica acta》1974,38(5):703-714

The tracer-diffusion coefficient of ions in water, D_j⁰, and in sea water, $\text{D}{}_{\mathrm{j}}{}^1$, differ by no more than zero to 8 per cent. When sea water diffuses into a dilute solution of water, in order to maintain the electro-neutrality, the average diffusion coefficients of major cations become greater but of major anions smaller than their respective $\text{D}{}_{\mathrm{j}}{}^1$ or D_j⁰ values. The tracer diffusion coefficients of ions in deep-sea sediments, D_j,sed., can be related to $\text{D}{}_{\mathrm{j}}{}^1$ by $\text{D}{}_{\mathrm{j,sed.}}\text{= D}{}_{\mathrm{j}}{}^1\text{·}\text{α}\text{θ}{}^2$, where θ is the tortuosity of the bulk sediment and a a constant close to one.  相似文献

Geochimie et teneurs isotopiques des systèmes saisonniers de dissolution de la calcite dans un sol sur craie     

L. Dever  R. Durand  J.Ch. Fontes  P. Vachier 《Geochimica et cosmochimica acta》1982,46(10):1947-1956

In a soil developed on the Cretaceous chalk of the Eastern Paris basin, calcite dissolution begins at the surface. The soil water is rapidly saturated in calcite. Calcite dissolution follows two different pathways according to seasonal pedoclimatic conditions.During winter: the soil is only partly saturated in water and the CO₂ partial pressure is low (Ca 10^?3 atm.). As a consequence total inorganic dissolved carbon (TIDC) is a hundred times the carbon content of the gaseous phase. Equilibrium is usually observed between the two phases. It is a closed system. The measured carbon 14 activity (87,5%) and ¹³C content ($\text{δ}{}_{\mathrm{tidc}}{}^{13}\text{C = ?12,2\%0}$) of the drainage water are very close to theoretical values calculated for an ideal mixing system between gaseous and mineral phases (respectively characterized by the following isotopic values: $\text{δ}{}_{\mathrm{G}}{}^{13}\text{C = ?21,5\%0}$; $\text{A}{}_{\mathrm{G}}{}^{14}\text{C = 118\%}$; $\text{δ}{}_{\mathrm{M}}{}^{13}\text{C = +2,9\%0}$; $\text{A}{}_{\mathrm{M}}{}^{14}\text{C = 28\%}$).During spring and summer: the soil moisture decreases, the input of biogenic CO₂ induces an increase of the soil CO₂ partial pressure (Ca from 3.10^?3 atm to 7.10^?3 atm). The carbon content of the gaseous phase is higher by an order of magnitude compared to winter conditions. Therefore the aqueous phase is undersaturated in CO₂ with respect to the latter. This disequilibrium occurs as a result of unbalanced rates of CO₂ dissolution and CO₂ effusion toward atmosphère. It is an open system. The carbon isotopic ratio of the aqueous phase is regulated by that of the gaseous phase, as demonstrated by the agreement between measured and calculated isotopic compositions (respectively δ_{L mes} = from ?9,4%0 to ?11,5%0, δ_{l calc} = from ?9,8%0 to ?13,9%0 A_{L mes} = 119%, A_{L calc} = from 119% to 125%).The solutions originating from both systems (open and closed) move downwards without significant mixing together. It has also been observed that no significant variation of the TIDC isotopic composition occurs during precipitation of secondary calcite.  相似文献   

The thermodynamics of the carbonate system in seawater     

Frank J Millero 《Geochimica et cosmochimica acta》1979,43(10):1651-1661

The apparent constants (K'_i) for the ionization of carbonic acid in seawater at various salinities (S,%.) have been fit to equations of the form ln $\text{K'}{}_{\mathrm{i}}\text{= ln K}{}_{\mathrm{i}}\text{+ A}{}_{\mathrm{i}}\text{S}{}^{\mathrm{<mtext>1</mtext><mtext>2</mtext>}}\text{+ B}{}_{\mathrm{i}}\text{S}$whereK_i is the thermodynamic ionization constant in water, A_i, and B_i are adjustable parameters. The temperature dependence (TK) of K_i, A_i and B_i were of the form, a₀ + a₁/T + a₃ ln T. Equations of similar forms have been used to analyze the ionization constants for water and boric acid and the solubility product of calcite in seawater. The effect of pressure on the apparent constants ($\text{K}{}^{\mathrm{p}}{}_{\mathrm{i}}\text{K}{}^{\mathrm{o}}{}_{\mathrm{i}}$) have been fit to equations of the form ln $\text{(}\text{K}{}^{\mathrm{p}}{}_{\mathrm{i}}\text{K}{}^{\mathrm{o}}{}_{\mathrm{i}}\text{) = ? (ΔVP + 0.5 ΔK P}{}^2\text{)/RT}$ where the volume (ΔV) and compressibility (ΔK) changes are polynomial functions of temperature. The equations generated for various açids in seawater have been used to examine the carbonate system in seawater. Equations relating the NBS and Tris pH scales have been derived as well as equations of pH as a function of temperature and pressure. The equations from Hansson (1972, Ph.D. Thesis, University of Göteborg, Sweden) and Mehrbachet al. (1973, Limnol. Oceanogr.18, 897–907) have been used to examine the components of the carbonate system. At a fixed total alkalinity and total carbon dioxide, differences of ±0.01 m-equiv kg^?1 in HCO^?₃ and CO^2?₃ were found; however, the [CO₂] and P_co2 are nearly the same. The contribution of borate ion, B(OH)^?₄ determined from the equations of Hansson (1972, Ph.D. Thesis, University of Göteborg, Sweden) and Lyman (1957, Ph.D. Thesis, University of California, Los Angeles) differ by ±0.01 m-equiv kg^?1 for waters with the same salinity and temperature.  相似文献

The stability of the amphibole pargasite [NaCa₂Mg₄Al(Al₂Si₆))O₂₂(OH)₂] in the melting range has been determined at total pressures (P) of 1.2 to 8 kbar. The activity of H₂O was controlled independently of P by using mixtures of H₂O + CO₂ in the fluid phase. The mole fraction of H₂O in the fluid ($\text{X}{}_{\mathrm{H}}{}_2\text{O}{}^{\mathrm{1fl}}$) ranged from 1.0 to 0.2.At P < 4 kbar the stability temperature (T) of pargasite decreases with decreasing $\text{X}{}_{\mathrm{H}}{}_2\text{O}{}^{\mathrm{1fl}}$ at constant P. Above P ? 4 kbar stability T increases as $\text{X}{}_{\mathrm{H}}{}_2\text{O}{}^{\mathrm{1fl}}$ is decreased below one, passes through a T maximum and then decreases with a further decrease in $\text{X}{}_{\mathrm{H}}{}_2\text{O}{}^{\mathrm{1fl}}$. This behavior is due to a decrease in the H₂O content of the silicate liquid as $\text{X}{}_{\mathrm{H}}{}_2\text{O}{}^{\mathrm{1fl}}$ decreases. The magnitude of the T maximum increases from about 10°C (relative to the stability T for $\text{X}{}_{\mathrm{H}}{}_2\text{O}{}^{\mathrm{1fl}}\text{= 1}$) at P = 5 kbar to about 30°C at P = 8 kbar, and the position of the maximum shifts from $\text{X}{}_{\mathrm{H}}{}_2\text{O}{}^{\mathrm{1fl}}\text{? 0.6}$ at P = 5 kbar to $\text{X}{}_{\mathrm{H}}{}_2\text{O}{}^{\mathrm{1fl}}\text{? 0.4}$ at P = 8 kbar.The H₂O content of liquid coexisting with pargasite has been estimated as a function of at 5 and 8 kbar P, and can be used to estimate the H₂O content of magmas. Because pargasite is stable at low values of $\text{X}{}_{\mathrm{H}}{}_2\text{O}{}^{\mathrm{1fl}}$ at high P and T, hornblende can be an important phase in igneous processes even at relatively low H₂O fugacities.  相似文献   

The effect of ionic interactions on the oxidation of metals in natural waters     

Frank J Millero 《Geochimica et cosmochimica acta》1985,49(2):547-553

The effect of ionic interactions of the major components of natural waters on the oxidation of Cu(I) and Fe(II) has been examined. The various ion pairs of these metals have been shown to have different rates of oxidation. For Fe(II), the chloride and sulfate ion pairs are not easily oxidized. The measured decrease in the rate constant at a fixed pH in chloride and sulfate solutions agrees very well with the values predicted. The effect of pH (6 to 8) on the oxidation of Fe(II) in water and seawater have been shown to follow the rate equation where k₁ and k₂ are the pseudo first order rate constants, β₁ and β₂ are the hydrolysis constants for Fe(OH)⁺ and Fe(OH)⁰. The value of α_FE is the fraction of free Fe²⁺. The value of k₁ (2.0 ±0.5 min^?1) in water and seawater are similar within experimental error. The value of k₂ (1.2 × 10⁵ min^?1) in seawater is 28% of its value in water in reasonable agreement with predictions using an ion pairing model.For the oxidation of Cu(I) a rate equation of the form was found where k₀ (14.1 sec^?1) and k₁ (3.9 sec^?1) are the pseudo first order rate constants for the oxidation of Cu⁺ and CuCl⁰, β₁ is the formation constant for CuCl⁰ and α_Cu is the fraction of free Cu⁺. Thus, unlike the results for Fe(II), Cu(I) chloride complexes have measurable rates of oxidation.  相似文献
