If HO2 and HO4H were perfect gases, and vibrational motion of the molecules was ignored, what would the value of Cp be? Plot the heat capacities of each species over the range 200 K < T < 400 K. Do you think vibrational motion is significant in these molecules? (I have the equations for Temperature dependent entropies and heat capacities for both molecules plus their enthalpies of formation values at 298.15K. I am wondering how I would begin to solve this problem.)
