About HessiteHide

02068560017271923865921.jpg
Germain Henri Hess
Formula:
Ag2Te
Colour:
lead-grey, steel-grey
Lustre:
Metallic
Hardness:
2 - 3
Specific Gravity:
8.24 - 8.45
Crystal System:
Monoclinic
Name:
Named in 1843 by Frobel in honor of Germain Henri Hess [August 7, 1802 Geneva, Switzerland - November 30, 1850 St. Petersburg, Russia], Swiss-Russian chemist who proposed Hess's Law, which stated that the final thermodynamic energy of a series of chemical reactions is independent of the chemical pathway to that state. Earlier called tellursilber by Rose and later confounded with petzite and other species. Hess was a student of Jons Jakob Berzelius.
Above 155°C hessite is cubic, and on cooling below this temperature it develops fine phase transformation lamellae.
