Earlier data are recalculated to give the boundaries of the homogeneou
s field of solid cryolite. The equilibrium constant K = x(3) . (a(NaF)
)(2)/[18(1 - x/3)(2) . (1 - x/2)] where the composition of the materia
l is (3 - x)NaF . AlF3, is log(10) (K) = -12,543/T + 5.109 The activit
y of NaF, a(NaF), is referred to the solid standard state. The standar
d Gibbs energy of fusion of stoichiometric cryolite is Delta G degrees
/J = 119,331 - 94.695 T.
