The Gmelin rare earths handbook lists 1522 °C and 1550 °C as two melting points given in the literature, the most recent reference [Handbook on the chemistry and physics of rare earths, vol.12 (1989)] is given with 1529 °C.
Commercial so-called "concentrated" hydroiodic acid usually contains 48–57% HI by mass; the solution forms an azeotrope with boiling point 126.7 °C at 56.7 g HI per 100 g solution. Hence hydroiodic acid cannot be concentrated past this point by evaporation of water. [5]
The following chart shows the solubility of various ionic compounds in water at 1 atm pressure and room temperature (approx. 25 °C, 298.15 K). "Soluble" means the ionic compound doesn't precipitate, while "slightly soluble" and "insoluble" mean that a solid will precipitate; "slightly soluble" compounds like calcium sulfate may require heat to precipitate.
Sodium iodide (chemical formula NaI) is an ionic compound formed from the chemical reaction of sodium metal and iodine. Under standard conditions, it is a white, water-soluble solid comprising a 1:1 mix of sodium cations (Na +) and iodide anions (I −) in a crystal lattice. It is used mainly as a nutritional supplement and in organic chemistry.
Sodium carbonate serves as a flux for silica (SiO 2, melting point 1,713 °C), lowering the melting point of the mixture to something achievable without special materials. This "soda glass" is mildly water-soluble, so some calcium carbonate is added to the melt mixture to make the glass insoluble.
It can be prepared by reacting a sodium-containing base such as sodium hydroxide with iodic acid, for example: HIO 3 + NaOH → NaIO 3 + H 2 O. It can also be prepared by adding iodine to a hot, concentrated solution of sodium hydroxide or sodium carbonate: 3 I 2 + 6 NaOH → NaIO 3 + 5 NaI + 3 H 2 O
