[edit]

For a gas, the term "heat capacity" isn't specific enough. Constant volume and constant pressure heat capacities differ greatly, and there should be an indication of which heat capacity is given. It turns out that the number listed is at constant pressure, but I had to dig to confirm this. Perhaps the link to "heat capacity" should lead to an explanation that is directly clarifying, or the annotation (Cp) could be inserted.

I’ve inserted (Cp) in the entry here. Something similar should be done wherever this issue arises. Harold f (talk) 16:12, 6 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I have restarted this point at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Elements#Heat_capacity_ambiguous_with_gaseous_elements_--_add_Cp.3F. Please continue this thread there. -DePiep (talk) 17:48, 7 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
