Abstract
Isotopic vibrational frequencies and the corresponding partition-function ratios for several compounds containing Ge70 and Ge76 have been calculated at various temperatures. The theoretical equilibrium constants for germanium isotope-exchange reactions derived from these partition-function ratios indicate that noticeable germanium isotope fractionation might be effected with laboratory reactions. Calculated kinetic isotope effects in the breaking of diatomic bonds also predict observable alterations of the Ge70/Ge76 ratio.A kinetic isotope effect of 1.0% observed in the chemical reduction of GeO2 to GeO is discussed.
