Heat capacity as a function

The enthalpy of fomiation is obtained from enthalpies of combustion, usually made at 298.15 K while the standard entropy at 298.15 K is derived by integration of the heat capacity as a function of temperature from T = 0 K to 298.15 K according to equation (B 1.27.16). The Gibbs-FIehiiholtz relation gives the variation of the Gibbs energy with temperature... 

A lustrous metal has the heat capacities as a function of temperature shown in Table 1-4 where the integers are temperatures and the floating point numbers (numbers with decimal points) are heat capacities. Print the curve of Cp vs. T and Cp/T vs. T and determine the entropy of the metal at 298 K assuming no phase changes over the interval [0, 298]. Use as many of the methods described above as feasible. If you do not have a plotting program, draw the curves by hand. Scan a table of standard entropy values and decide what the metal might he. 

There are no reliable prediction methods for solid heat capacity as a function of temperature. However, the atomic element contribution method of Hurst and Harrison,which is a modification of Kopp s Rule, provides estimations at 298.15 K and is easy to use ... 

There are a number of reliable estimating techniques for obtaining pure-component hq uid heat capacity as a function of tem )erature, including Ruzicka and Dolmalsld, Tarakad and Danner, " and Lee and Kesler. These methods are somewhat compheated. The relatively single atomic group contribution approach of Chueh and Swanson for liquid heat capacity at 29.3.15 K is presented here ... 

Equation (2.18) is another example of a line integral, demonstrating that 6q is not an exact differential. To calculate q, one must know the heat capacity as a function of temperature. If one graphs C against T as shown in Figure 2.8, the area under the curve is q. The dependence of C upon T is determined by the path followed. The calculation of q thus requires that we specify the path. Heat is often calculated for an isobaric or an isochoric process in which the heat capacity is represented as Cp or Cy, respectively. If molar quantities are involved, the heat capacities are C/)m or CY.m. Isobaric heat capacities are more... 

Equation (4.3) is exactly true only if q is an infinitesimal amount of heat, causing an infinitesimal temperature rise, dr. However, unless the heat capacity is increasing rapidly and nonlinearly with temperature, equation (4.3) gives an accurate value for Cp at the average temperature of the measurement Continued addition of heat gives the heat capacity as a function of temperature. The results of such measurements for glucose are shown in Figure 4.1.2... 

The process we have followed Is Identical with the one we used previously for the uranium/oxygen (U/0) system (1-2) and Is summarized by the procedure that Is shown In Figure 1. Thermodynamic functions for the gas-phase molecules were obtained previously (3) from experimental spectroscopic data and estimates of molecular parameters. The functions for the condensed phase have been calculated from an assessment of the available data, Including the heat capacity as a function of temperature (4). The oxygen potential Is found from extension Into the liquid phase of a model that was derived for the solid phase. Thus, we have all the Information needed to apply the procedure outlined In Figure 1. 

The calculation is performed in terms of degrees Celsius, including values both above and below zero. It is not convenient, therefore, to use the relative increment of temperature as a test for step size in subroutine CHECKSTEP. I use absolute increments instead. At the end of subroutine SPECS, I set incind equal to 3 for all equations, limiting the absolute increment in temperature to 3° per time step. Zonally averaged heat capacity as a function of latitude is calculated in subroutine CLIMINP in terms of land fraction and the heat capacity parameters specified in SPECS. It is returned in the array heap.

As illustrated in figure 12.6, the determination of the heat capacity as a function of the temperature usually involves three consecutive measurements [229,270]. 

The NIST Webbook gives data for heat capacity over a range of temperatures, and it provides coefficients for empirical equations for heat capacity as a function of temperature for solid, liquid, and gas phases. The latter are referred to as Shomate equation parameters. ...

The terms in Equation 1.2 are described in Nomenclature. The condition of constant heat capacity can be relaxed if accurate data is available for heat capacity as a function of both conversion and temperature. 

The partial molar properties are not measured directly per se, but are readily derivable from experimental measurements. For example, the volumes or heat capacities of definite quantities of solution of known composition are measured. These data are then expressed in terms of an intensive quantity—such as the specific volume or heat capacity, or the molar volume or heat capacity—as a function of some composition variable. The problem then arises of determining the partial molar quantity from these functions. The intensive quantity must first be converted to an extensive quantity, then the differentiation must be performed. Two general methods are possible (1) the composition variables may be expressed in terms of the mole numbers before the differentiation and reintroduced after the differentiation or (2) expressions for the partial molar quantities may be obtained in terms of the derivatives of the intensive quantity with respect to the composition variables. In the remainder of this section several examples are given with emphasis on the second method. Multicomponent systems are used throughout the section in order to obtain general relations. 

Ehrenfest s concept of the discontinuities at the transition point was that the discontinuities were finite, similar to the discontinuities in the entropy and volume for first-order transitions. Only one second-order transition, that of superconductors in zero magnetic field, has been found which is of this type. The others, such as the transition between liquid helium-I and liquid helium-II, the Curie point, the order-disorder transition in some alloys, and transition in certain crystals due to rotational phenomena all have discontinuities that are large and may be infinite. Such discontinuities are particularly evident in the behavior of the heat capacity at constant pressure in the region of the transition temperature. The curve of the heat capacity as a function of the temperature has the general form of the Greek letter lambda and, hence, the points are called lambda points. Except for liquid helium, the effect of pressure on the transition temperature is very small. The behavior of systems at these second-order transitions is not completely known, and further thermodynamic treatment must be based on molecular and statistical concepts. These concepts are beyond the scope of this book, and no further discussion of second-order transitions is given. 

First, second and 5th order polynomial interpolation for the specific heat capacity of a semi-crystalline thermoplastic (PA6). When performing a heat transfer simulation (heating or cooling) for a thermoplastic, the complete course of the specific heat capacity as a function of temperature is needed. A common way to do this...

Differential scanning calorimetery (DSC) was used to measure heat capacity as a function of temperature. The DSC used in this study was a Perkin-Elmer model DSC-2. Liquid nitrogen was used as a heat sink and helium was used as the purge gas. Samples were usually about 30 mg, and a heating rate of 20°C/min was used for measuring Tgs and Tms. 

The complete course of the specific heat capacity as a function of temperature has been published for a limited number of polymers only. As an example, Fig. 5.1 shows some experimental data for polypropylene, according to Dainton et al. (1962) and Passaglia and Kevorkian (1963). Later measurements by Gee and Melia (1970) allowed extrapolation to purely amorphous and purely crystalline material, leading to the schematic course of molar heat capacity as a function of temperature shown in Fig. 5.2. 

In general a polymer sample is neither completely crystalline nor completely amorphous. Therefore, in the temperature region between Tg and Tm the molar heat capacity follows some course between the curves for solid and liquid (as shown in Fig. 5.1 for 65% crystalline polypropylene). This means that published single data for the specific heat capacity of polymers should be regarded with some suspicion. Reliable values can only be derived from the course of the specific heat capacity as a function of temperature for a number of samples. Outstanding work in this field was done by Wunderlich and his co-workers. Especially his reviews of 1970 and 1989 have to be mentioned here. 

The thermoplasticity of the graft copolymers can be verified by measurements of the glass transition temperature of the new solids. The glass transition temperature is the temperature at which an amorphous solid becomes ductile and is a characteristic of thermoplastic materials. Samples of 5-10 mg of reaction product were heated at 10°C/min in a differential scanning calorimeter to monitor heat capacity as a function of temperature. The temperature of each transition produced by each copolymer is shown in Table 8. 

If we know the relaxation time r of the affinity we can calculate A by the method outlined in the previous paragraph. Equation (19.19) then gives the heat capacity as a function of time in a system approaching equilibrium.

In the next section we focus attention on the details of how to express the heat capacity as a function of temperature, and in Sec. 4.3 discuss how to use Eq. (4.8) to calculate enthalpy differences. 

Because of the phase changes that take place as well as the nonlinearity of the heat capacities as a function of temperature, it is not possible to replace the enthalpies in Eq. (c) with functions of temperature and get a linear algebraic equation that is ea to solve. Consequently, the strategy we will use is first to assume a final temperature and pressure, and next we will check the calculation via Eq. (c). We want to bracket the temperature if possible, and then can interpolate for the desired answer.

The ratio method. When a sample is subjected to a linear temperature increase, the rate of heat flow into the sample is proportional to its instantaneous heat capacity. Regarding this rate of heat flow as a function of temperature, and comparing it with that for a standard sample under the same conditions, we can obtain the heat capacity as a function of temperature. The procedure has been described in detail by O Neil (1966). The principle of this method is shown schematically in Figure 4.5.
