The Raman spectra of liquid UF6and of UF6dissolved in C7F16have been photographed. Three Raman lines are found for UF6at 200, 511, and 656 cm−1. The infra‐red spectrum of the gas has been obtained in the region between 2 and 17&mgr;. A vibrational assignment of all the fundamental frequencies is made on the basis of the regular octahedral model. The calculated infra‐red active overtones are in good agreement with experiment. Using 2.0A as the U&sngbnd;F distance from electron diffraction measurements, the entropy, heat capacity and — (F° — E0°/T) are calculated from 100°K to 1000°K for the gas. The calculated and experimental entropies are in good agreement.
