Chapter 18, Problem 18.49E
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The heat capacity of H2S at 298K and 1bar pressure is to be calculated.

Concept introduction:

The heat capacity for nonlinear polyatomic molecule is given by the formula,

CV=Nk[32+32+j=13N*6(θjT)2eθj/T(1eθj/T)2]

Where,

N is the Avogadro number.

T is the temperature.

k is the Boltzmann constant.

θj is the rotational temperature.

Calculate the vibrational, rotational, and translational contributions to the constant volume heat capacity (Cv) for 14N2 at 298 K.  Assume this represents the high temperature limit for rotational energy and low temperature limit for vibrational energy.  Given that Cv=20.81 J/K·mol for N2, state which type or types of energy contribute most to Cv for N2 and explain why those types of energy contribute most.

Chemistry The first excited electronic energy level of the helium atom is 3.13 ✕ 10−18 J above the ground level. Estimate the temperature at which the electronic motion will begin to make a significant contribution to the heat capacity. That is, at what temperature will 5.0% of the population be in the first excited state?
