Molar heat capacity and entropy of calcium metal

The heat capacity of calcium has been measured at 85 mean temperatures between T ≈ 8 K and T ≈ 369 K using an adiabatically-shielded calorimeter in an intermittent heating mode. At T = 298.15 K, the recommended values for the molar heat capacity, molar entropy, and molar enthalpy increment referred to T = 0 are (25.77 ± 0.08) J·K −1 ·mol −1 , (42.90 ± 0.11) J·K −1 ·mol −1 , and (5811 ±12)J·mol −1 , respectively. The uncertainties are twice the standard deviation of the mean.
