Abstract
The heats of formation of copper-indium liquid alloys were determined by the use of a TIAN-CALVET calorimeter in the temperature range of 900-1350°K. The values of the heat capacity of formation were calculated from the temperature dependence of the heat of formation. The heat of formation was represented in terms of the mole fraction and the temperature by the polynomial emperical expression. It seems to be possible to explicate the thermodynamic behavior of this system with the terms of the existance of a cluster Cu₃In and the positive contribution of the heat capacity.
