(a)

To determine

The expression for the entropy of an Einstein solid as a function of N and q.

The reason for the omit of factors from the formula as there is no effect on the entropy, when N and q are large.

(b)

To determine

The temperature of an Einstein solid as a function of its energy.

(c)

To determine

The energy as a function of temperature and differentiating it to find the heat capacity expression.

(d)

To determine

Heat capacity is C=Nk at limit T .

(e)

To determine

The graph of CNk versus t=kT .

The heat capacity at low temperature comparing the data for lead, aluminum and diamond.

The value of for real solid in electron-volts.

(f)

To determine

The accurate approximate for heat capacity at high temperature.
