The heat capacity of synthetic andradite garnet (Ca 3 Fe 2 Si 3 O 12 ) was measured between 9.6 and 365.5 K by cryogenic adiabatic calorimetry and from 340 to 990 K by differential scanning calorimetry. At 298.15 K C o p , m and S o m are 351.9 ± 0.7 and 316.4 ± 2.0 J/(mol·K), respectively. Andradite has a -peak in C o p , m with a maximum at 11.7 ± 0.2 K which is presumably associated with the antiferromagnetic ordering of the magnetic moments of the Fe 3+ ions. The Gibbs free energy of formation, f G o m (298.15 K) of andradite is -5414.8 ± 5.5 kJ/mol and was obtained by combining our entropy and heat capacity data with the known breakdown of andradite to pseudowollastonite and hematite at 1410 to 1438 K. From a reexamination of the calcite + QUARTZ = wollastonite equilibrium data we obtained f H o m (298.15 K) = - 1634.5 ± 1.8 kJ/mol for wollastonite. Between 300 and 1000 K the molar heat capacity of andradite can be represented by the equation C o p , m = 809.24 - 7.025 × 10-2 T - 7.403 × 10 3 T -0.5 - 6.789 × 10 5 T -2. We have also used our thermochemical data for andradite to estimate the Gibbs free energy of formation of hedenbergite (CaFeSi 2 O 6 ) for which we obtained f G o m (298.15 K ) = -2674.3 ± 5.8 kJ/mol.
