Abstract: "White powdery tungstic acid" has been used for preparing various types of tungsten-containing compounds due to its high reactivity. The present paper covers the standard molar enthalpies of formation, △Hf0 of three tungsten- containing acids. The values found for "white powdery tungstic acid" WO3·1.68H2O, "yellow tungstic acid" WO3·1.20H2O and dodecatungstophosphoric acid H3(PW12O40)·25H2O at 298.15K were-(1312±1), -(1192±1) and -(18150±13) kJmol-1, respectively.

Key words: Enthalpy of formation, Tungstic acid, Dodecatungstophosphoric acid, Solution calorimetry
