Example (Problem 4.1) The specific heat capacity cv of
solids at low temperature is given by the Debye T3 law:
T 
cv  A 
 
3
The quantity A is a constant equal to 19.4 x 105 J
Kilomole-1K-1 and θ is the Debye temperature, equal to
320K for NaCl.
(a) What is the molar specific heat capacity at constant
volume of NaCl at 10K and at 50K?
(b) How much heat is required to raise the temperature of
2 kilomoles of NaCl from 10K to 50K at constant
volume?
(c) What is the mean specific heat capacity at constant
volume over this temperature range?
•

(b)
Solution
The calculation is straight forward, inserting the temperature to the given equation
cv (10K) = 19.4 x 105 J kilomole-1K-1 x (10K/320K)3
= 59.204 J kilomole-1K-1
cv (50K) = 19.4 x 105 J kilomole-1K-1 x (50K/320K)3
= 7400.5 J kilomole-1K-1

• Example 3: (Problem 4.10):
The equation of state for radiant energy in equilibrium
with temperature of the walls of a cavity of volume V is P
= aT4/3, where a is a constant. The energy equation is U
= aT4V.
(a) Show that the heat supplied in an isothermal doubling
of the volume of the cavity is (4/3)aT4V.
(b) Show that in an adiabatic process, VT3 is constant.
