The thermodynamic properties of manganese tellurides were determined using an electromotive force (EMF) method with a liquid electrolyte in a temperature range from 300 to 450 K. EMF measurements were performed using equilibrium samples taken from the two-phase regions, namely MnTe2 + Te and MnTe + MnTe2, of the Mn–Te system. The phase compositions of all samples were controlled with the X-ray diffraction (XRD) method. The partial molar functions of manganese in alloys, as well as the standard thermodynamic functions of the formation and standard entropies of MnTe and MnTe2, were calculated. A comparative analysis of obtained results with literature data is performed
