We report precise experimental values of the enthalpy of sublimation (DHs) of quenched condensed films of neon (Ne), nitrogen (N-2), oxygen (O-2), argon (Ar), carbon dioxide (CO2), krypton (Kr), xenon (Xe), and water (H2O) vapour using a single consistent measurement platform. The experiments are performed well below the triple point temperature of each gas and fall in the temperature range where existing experimental data is very limited. A 6 cm(2) and 400 mm thick double paddle oscillator (DPO) with high quality factor (Q approximate to 4 x 10(5) at 298 K) and high frequency stability (33 parts per 10 (9)) is utilized for the measurements. The enthalpies of sublimation are derived by measuring the rate of mass loss during temperature programmed desorption. The mass change is detected due to change in the resonance frequency of the self- tracking oscillator. Our measurements typically remain within 10% of the available literature, theory, and National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Web Thermo Tables (WTT) values, but are performed using an internally consistent method across different gases.
