Formation enthalpies

Literature values in kJ/mol-atom where the per-atom basis is known. DFT columns: the lowest-energy entry at the same composition (Materials Project 2026.04.13, OQMD v1.8; different energy references, never averaged), from dft_parity.json.

report
The only value reported for the enthalpy of formation of MgTl is -24.3 ± 4.2 kJ/mol atoms [11], which was determined at 600 K by an adiabatic high-temperature calorimeter with all the starting materials having a purity of 99.96%.
