Abstract
Reliable energetic parameters for the anisotropic dehydration of manganese(II) formate dihydrate may be obtained using two distinct experimental procedures. Direct microscopic measurements of interface advancement at {011} faces yields, for the enthalpy of activation, a value of 18·6 ± 1·8 kcal mol–1, whereas microgravimetry leads, indirectly, to a value of 17·1 ± 1·5 kcal mol–1. The entropy change accompanying activation is insignificantly small.
