1 Geochemistry 2: Experimental and Stable Isotope Perspectives on the Deep Earth δ? Anat Shahar Geophysical Laboratory Carnegie Institution of Washington
2 Look for elements that have more than one non-radiogenic isotope, for which the mass difference between isotopes is a significant fraction of the atomic mass (enough to measure)
3 Fractionation refers to the partial separation of two isotopes of the same element, producing reservoirs with different ratios of the isotopes. Isotopic fractionations occur due to: Differences in bond energies (equilibrium) Reaction rates (kinetics) v 1 v 2 = m 2 m 1
4 En=hν(n+½)
5 En=hν(n+½)
6 En=hν(n+½) Zero-point energy differences drive typical equilibrium stable isotope fractionations.
7 Heavy isotopes have lower vibrational frequencies 12 C 16 O ν light 12 C 18 O ν heavy Credit: Edwin Schauble
8 Stiffer bond Stiffer bonds concentrate the heavy isotopes - shorter bonds - higher oxidation state - low coordination number ν light ν heavy
9 O Neil 1986 tabulated five common characteristics that are shared by elements that show large variations in isotopic compositions in nature: low atomic mass relative mass difference between isotopes is large tendency to form covalent bonds elements exist in more than one oxidation state abundances are high enough that we can measure them
10 Clayton et al., 1975
11 AXʹ + BX = AX + BXʹ Keq = Q(AX)Q(BXʹ)/Q(AXʹ)Q(BX) Qtotal = QtranslationQrotationQvibration
12 AXʹ + BX = AX + BXʹ Keq = Q(AX)Q(BXʹ)/Q(AXʹ)Q(BX) Qtotal = QtranslationQrotationQvibration Energy quanta associated with molecular rotation and translation are so small that they can be treated approximately without an explicit sum over the quantum energies
13 Translational energy is a function of the ratio of the molecular weights and is independent of temperature

17 The extent of isotope separation in a particular reaction is the α αa-b = R i/j A/R i/j B where R i/j A is the ratio of isotopes i and j in material A
18 The extent of isotope separation in a particular reaction is the α αa-b = R i/j A/R i/j B where R i/j A is the ratio of isotopes i and j in material A and δ i = [R i/j sample/r i/j standard - 1]*1000 δa - δb = ΔA-B 10 3 ln αa-b!

19 Schauble (2004) suggested the following rules governing equilibrium stable isotope fractionations: decrease as temperature increases fractionation scales with mass heavy isotopes of an element will tend to be concentrated in substances with stiffest bonds (high spring constants) high oxidation state; highly covalent bonds; low coordination number; for anions high oxidation state to which the element of interest is bonded; bonds involving elements near the top of the periodic table; low-spin electronic configurations! " # $ % & ( ( ) * + +, - ( ( ) * + +, - = = = 1 2,, 1 2,, 2 3 / ln 10 x b x f x a x f i j b j i b a K K m m T k h π π α

21 So what can we learn from stable isotopes about the deep earth? How do we use them? -From experiments we can determine what the fractionation factors are for certain reactions as a function of temperature, pressure and composition Tracers! -From natural samples we can then determine which chemical reactions occurred in the samples and what temperature (etc.) the rocks equilibrated

26 Moon Wood et al., Although it would seem unlikely, perhaps the x5 ø signal observed on Earth is not representative of its primordial value. There appears to be a similarity in magmatic carbon isotopic composition (Fig. 3) between Mars (or at least Martian meteorites), Moon (Apollo samples) and Vesta (HED meteorites); if anything, it would seem that, in Solar System terms, it is the Earth that is unusual. Grady et al., 2004
27 O Neil 1986 tabulated five common characteristics that are shared by elements that show large variations in isotopic compositions in nature: low atomic mass relative mass difference between isotopes is large tendency to form covalent bonds elements exist in more than one oxidation state abundances are high enough that we can measure them

29 Look for elements that have more than one non-radiogenic isotope, for which the mass difference between isotopes is a significant fraction of the atomic mass (enough to measure)

31 Example 3: Iron Isotopes in Rocks
32 Fayalite Fe 3+ in tetrahedral coordination Magnetite Fe 2+ in octahedral coordination Fe 2+ and Fe 3+ in octahedral coordination
33 vs. - Fe 2+ Only - Octahedral Coordination only - (1/3) Fe 2+ and (2/3) Fe 3+ - Octahedral and Tetrahedral Coordination The heavier isotope will be concentrated in stiffer bonds, which are associated with (among others): - higher oxidation state - low coordination number Therefore, magnetite should be more enriched in 57 Fe than fayalite.
