Spectroscopic analysis reveals accurate excess thermodynamic quantities for heavy water from Raman spectra, indicating consistency with calorimetric melting data.
Excess thermodynamic functions of D2O water have been calculated from the vibrationally decoupled O−D stretching spectra of very dilute solutions of HOD in H2O. Comparison of the results with reference calorimetric data for water showed a good correspondence for excess heat capacity above the melting point of ice. The excess enthalpy at the melting point also coincides well with latent heat of melting.
