Why classical theory of lattice heat capacity gives same results at High and Low
temperatures
Explain whether you will expect a highr or lower internal energy for a mono-atomic molecules such as Ar compared to the multi-atomic molecules having the same molecular weight, Assume that the two molecules under the same temperature and pressure.
Calculate the value of CP at 298 K and 1 atm pressure predicted for CH4(g) and C2H4(g) by the classical equipartition theorem. Compare the predicted results with the experimental results and calculate the percent of the measured value that arises from vibrational motions.
