Using direct-synthesis calorimetry, Meschel and Kleppa [27] determined the standard enthalpy of formation of Gd5 Ge3 to be -82.0 ± 2.6 kJ/mol-atoms at 1473 ± 2 K.
Uncertainty budget
Components kept separate, in the value's unit (literature SCHEMA.md, UNCERTAINTY_CALIBRATION.md): effective = max(sqrt(max(printed, reading, method)^2 + composition^2 + conversion^2), scatter). The method floor is the robust between-study scatter of the method class in ORCHID (calibrated) or a documented prior; printed values and printed uncertainties are unchanged.
