Chapter 3.4, Problem 30P
As shown in Figure 1.14, the heat capacity of diamond near room temperature is approximately linear in T. Extrapolate this function up to 500 K, and estimate the change in entropy of a mole of diamond as its temperature is raised from 298 K to 500 K. Add on the tabulated value at 298 K (from the back of this book) to obtain

Starting with the Clausius Inequality, ∂S ≥ ∂q/T, can you prove that, under conditions of constant pressure and entropy, for the total entropy to increase, ∂H ≤ 0 J?
The volume of a monatomic ideal gas triples in an isothermalexpansion. By what factor does its pressure change?
Experimental measurements of the heat capacity of aluminum at low temperatures (below about 50 K) can be fit to the formula Cv = aT+bT3 ,where Cv is the heat capacity of one mole of aluminum, and the constants a and b are approximately a = 0.00135 J/K2 and b = 2.48 X 10-5 J/K4. From this data, find a formula for the entropy of a mole of aluminum as a function of temperature. Evaluate your formula at T = 1 K and at T = 10 K, expressing your answers both in conventional units (J/K) and as unitless numbers (dividing by Boltzmann's constant).
