Abstract: | The bonding of compounds of the form RY in the NaCl structure is predominantly ionic, as shown by spectroscopic studies of charge transfer. A formula for the heats of formation of these compounds (R=Ti, Zr, Hf, V, Nb, Ta and Y=C, N, O) is constructed based on a modification of Pauling's electronegativity table. The formula yields good agreement with experiment, and is refined to yield more accurate values of the R electronegativities. The heat of formation of NbN is anomalously small, and this may be correlated with its high superconducting transition temperature. Miscibility gaps in the alloy systems R′xR″1?xC are discussed. |
