The Relation between Vaporization Entropy and Surface Tension at Temperatures near Melting Point

抄録

The relations among the quantities participating in surface formation have been studied on the basis of the following assumptions: (i) There is an analogy between surface formation and vaporization. (ii) The surface tension as a function of temperature is given by the equation, γ∝(1−TTc)B, where Tc is the critical temperature and B is the exponent.<BR>Based on the above assumptions the following expressions for the relations among surface quantities are determined by statistical analysis of experimental data: (1) The surface entropy is given by the equation, s≈0.1S, where S the specific vaporization entropy in J/(m2·K), defined as the vaporization entropy per unit area of the monatomic layer in bulk. (2) The surface tension is given by the equation, γ=1.536×104 S1.62, where γ is the surface tension in N/m. (3) The surface tension is given by the equation, γ=0.152+4.61×10−4 EvV2⁄3, where Ev, is the formation energy of a vacancy in eV and V is the atomic volume in m3.
