Hea.t Ca.pa.cities. The heat capacities of real gases are functions of temperature and pressure, and this functionaHty must be known to calculate other thermodynamic properties such as internal energy and enthalpy. The heat capacity in the ideal-gas state is different for each gas. Constant pressure heat capacities, (U, for the ideal-gas state are independent of pressure and depend only on temperature. An accurate temperature correlation is often an empirical equation of the form ...

This is the infinitesimal form of Eq. 5a of Chapter 6, which also applies to reversible changes.) If the change in temperature is carried out at constant volume, we use the constant-volume heat capacity, Cv. If the change is carried out at constant pressure, we... 

An integral of a function—in this case, the integral of Cp/T—is the area under the graph of the function. Therefore, to measure the entropy of a substance, we need to measure the heat capacity (typically the constant-pressure heat capacity) at all temperatures from T = 0 to the temperature of interest. Then the entropy of the substance is obtained by plotting CP/T against T and measuring the area under the curve (Fig. 7.11).

In many cases the magnitude of the last term on the right side of equation 2.2.7 is very small compared to AH°98a6. However, if one is to be able to evaluate properly the standard heat of reaction at some temperature other than 298.16 °K, one must know the constant pressure heat capacities of the reactants and the products as functions of temperature as well as the heat of reaction at 298.16 °K. Data of this type and techniques for estimating these properties are contained in the references in Section 2.3. 

Pumps can be shut-in by closing the valves on the inlet and outlet sides of the pump. This can lead to pump damage and/or a rapid increase in the temperature of the liquid shut inside the pump.

This model, the Einstein model for heat capacity, predicts that the heat capacity is reduced on cooling and that the heat capacity becomes zero at 0 K. At high temperatures the constant-volume heat capacity approaches the classical value 3R. The Einstein model represented a substantial improvement compared with the classical models. The experimental heat capacity of copper at constant pressure is compared in Figure 8.3 to Cy m calculated using the Einstein model with 0g = 244 K. The insert to the figure shows the Einstein frequency of Cu. All 3L vibrational modes have the same frequency, v = 32 THz. However, whereas Cy m is observed experimentally to vary proportionally with T3 at low temperatures, the Einstein heat capacity decreases more rapidly it is proportional to exp(0E IT) at low temperatures. In order to reproduce the observed low temperature behaviour qualitatively, one more essential factor must be taken into account the lattice vibrations of each individual atom are not independent of each other - collective lattice vibrations must be considered. 

The experimental constant-pressure heat capacity of copper is given together with the Einstein and Debye constant volume heat capacities in Figure 8.12 (recall that the difference between the heat capacity at constant pressure and constant volume is small at low temperatures). The Einstein and Debye temperatures that give the best representation of the experimental heat capacity are e = 244 K and D = 315 K and schematic representations of the resulting density of vibrational modes in the Einstein and Debye approximations are given in the insert to Figure 8.12. The Debye model clearly represents the low-temperature behaviour better than the Einstein model. 

The heat capacity models described so far were all based on a harmonic oscillator approximation. This implies that the volume of the simple crystals considered does not vary with temperature and Cy m is derived as a function of temperature for a crystal having a fixed volume. Anharmonic lattice vibrations give rise to a finite isobaric thermal expansivity. These vibrations contribute both directly and indirectly to the total heat capacity directly since the anharmonic vibrations themselves contribute, and indirectly since the volume of a real crystal increases with increasing temperature, changing all frequencies. The constant volume heat capacity derived from experimental heat capacity data is different from that for a fixed volume. The difference in heat capacity at constant volume for a crystal that is allowed to relax at each temperature and the heat capacity at constant volume for a crystal where the volume is fixed to correspond to that at the Debye temperature represents a considerable part of Cp m - Cv m. This is shown for Mo and W [6] in Figure 8.15. 

Giauque, whose name has already been mentioned in connection with the discovery of the oxygen isotopes, calculated Third Law entropies with the use of the low temperature heat capacities that he measured he also applied statistical mechanics to calculate entropies for comparison with Third Law entropies. Very soon after the discovery of deuterium Urey made statistical mechanical calculations of isotope effects on equilibrium constants, in principle quite similar to the calculations described in Chapter IV. J. Kirkwood s development showing that quantum mechanical statistical mechanics goes over into classical statistical mechanics in the limit of high temperature dates to the 1930s. Kirkwood also developed the quantum corrections to the classical mechanical approximation.

At temperatures below 1 K, the ratio of the constant pressure heat capacity Cp of the glass relative to the Debye heat capacity CDebye of a solid increases [124], Consequently, we introduce a quantity R2 defined as the ratio of Cp(glass) to that of the Debye heat capacity CDebye(solid) [124], Specifically, if R2 is normalized as R2 = (Cp/CDebye) lmn ] / [(Cp/coebye)rnax], then a correlation is observed between this quantity and the fragility index [124],... 

At low temperatures, almost all lattice vibrations cease to contribute, leaving the thermal excitations of the electrons dominant [5].

This quantity is called the Joule coefficient. It is the limit of -(A77AF) . corrected for the heat capacity of the containers as AUapproaches zero. With the van der Waals equation of state, we obtain p = ajy C - The eorrected temperature change when the two eontain-ers are of equal volume is found by integration to be AT = -a/2 FC , where V is the initial molar volume and C is the molar constant-volume heat capacity. It is instractive to calculate this AT for a gas such as CO2. In addition, the student may consider the relative heat capacities of 10 L of the gas at a pressure of 1 bar and that of the quantity of eopper required to constract two spheres of this volume with walls (say) 1 mm thiek and then eal-culate the AT expected to be observed with such an experimental arrangement.
