One of the very recent papers published in the ‘Journal of Chemical Education’ [1] has reported on the correlation
between standard entropy and standard enthalpy taken from 0o
to 298.15o
K for a number of organic and inorganic
solids. From published experimental data on 77 substances which are solids under normal conditions, the authors find a
perfect linear regression fit of the standard entropy, ΔS0, to the standard enthalpy, ΔH0, of the following form
