✦ Synopsis

The gaseous oxides Fe0 and Fe02 were identified by mass spectrometry as components of the effusion beam from a cell containing, initially, solid FezOa. From studies of gaseous equilibrin involving these species, the dissocintion energies Di(Fk@) = 96.8 _e 3 kcai (4.20 2 0.13 eV) and Dg(FeO2) = 199.0 + 5 kcd (8.64 f 0.22 eV) were derived. The ionization potential of Fe0 was found t3 be 8.71 c 0.10 eV, leading toDt(Fe+-0) = 78.2 k 4.6 kcd (3.39 5 0.20 eV).
