It deals with the calculation of the average molar heat capacity at constant pressure using interpolation, as well as the calculation of such a value for multi-component gas mixtures. I welcome expert advice – is the interpolation method correct?
Learning*, learning*. Thank you to the original poster.
Generally speaking, Cp is not a simple linear sum. Here’s some reference for you.
How exactly is it calculated? Let’s explain it and learn together*learn*.
It can’t be explained in just a few words; it’s covered in books on chemical thermodynamics, so you can take a look if you’re interested. The process is quite complex and requires programming; manual calculation is basically no longer an option.
Could you explain the general approach? Which one should be calculated first and which later? What needs special attention?
