  2. Molar heat capacity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molar_heat_capacity

    A closely related property of a substance is the heat capacity per mole of atoms, or atom-molar heat capacity, in which the heat capacity of the sample is divided by the number of moles of atoms instead of moles of molecules. So, for example, the atom-molar heat capacity of water is 1/3 of its molar heat capacity, namely 25.3 J⋅K −1 ⋅mol ...

  3. Heat capacity ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_capacity_ratio

    For an ideal gas, the molar heat capacity is at most a function of temperature, since the internal energy is solely a function of temperature for a closed system, i.e., = (,), where n is the amount of substance in moles.

  5. Partition function (statistical mechanics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partition_function...

    The heat capacity is = = . In general, consider the extensive variable X and intensive variable Y where X and Y form a pair of conjugate variables . In ensembles where Y is fixed (and X is allowed to fluctuate), then the average value of X will be: X = ± ∂ ln ⁡ Z ∂ β Y . {\displaystyle \langle X\rangle =\pm {\frac {\partial \ln Z ...

  6. Equipartition theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equipartition_theorem

    It follows that the heat capacity of the gas is ⁠ 3 / 2 ⁠ N k B and hence, in particular, the heat capacity of a mole of such gas particles is ⁠ 3 / 2 ⁠ N A k B = ⁠ 3 / 2 ⁠ R, where N A is the Avogadro constant and R is the gas constant. Since R ≈ 2 cal/(mol·K), equipartition predicts that the molar heat capacity of an ideal gas ...

  7. Heat capacity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_capacity

    In those contexts, the unit of heat capacity is 1 BTU/°R ≈ 1900 J/K. [5] The BTU was in fact defined so that the average heat capacity of one pound of water would be 1 BTU/°F. In this regard, with respect to mass, note conversion of 1 Btu/lb⋅°R ≈ 4,187 J/kg⋅K [ 6 ] and the calorie (below).

  9. Dulong–Petit law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dulong–Petit_law

    Molar heat capacity of most elements at 25 °C is in the range between 2.8 R and 3.4 R: Plot as a function of atomic number with a y range from 22.5 to 30 J/mol K.. The Dulong–Petit law, a thermodynamic law proposed by French physicists Pierre Louis Dulong and Alexis Thérèse Petit, states that the classical expression for the molar specific heat capacity of certain chemical elements is ...
