This work aims to： （i） propose a consistent set of Gibbs free energies （AfG~） of ferrous hydroxide, Fe（OH）2.cr and of synthetic Green rusts I and II; （ii） check the consistency of the data of these isostructural compounds by means of a correlation obtained with electronegativities of the anions. Experimental data are concentrations in aqueous solutions and pH, and must be processed to obtain ionic activity products （lAP）. The model of Specific Interaction Theory （SIT） was used here. Firstly, some complexes whose existences are doubtful were removed from the SIT database. The new modified database is given here. Secondly, experimental data were processed. Thirdly, the following relation of regression between Gibbs free energies of formation of Green rusts and normalized Allred-Rochow electronegativities of anions was obtained as： △fG0 = -488.354 -353.11 （x/n）, r = -0.994. This relation was then used to assess the Gibbs free energy of formation for GR1-OH, simply written as Fe3（OH）7.展开更多
