Gas Phase Heat Capacity (Shomate Equation)

Cp° = A + B*t + C*t2 + D*t3 + E/t2
H° − H°298.15= A*t + B*t2/2 + C*t3/3 + D*t4/4 − E/t + F − H
S° = A*ln(t) + B*t + C*t2/2 + D*t3/3 − E/(2*t2) + G
    Cp = heat capacity (cal/mol*K)
    H° = standard enthalpy (kcal/mol)
    S° = standard entropy (cal/mol*K)
    t = temperature (K) / 1000.

Notes

1This level could possibly be T(v=1).
2Extensive perturbations.
3Perturbations.
4 Cheetham and Barrow, 1967 give 2.289 which appears to be a misprint.
5From the Ne matrix absorption spectrum.
6Perturbations in v=0.
7v=1 perturbed by a state of higher B value.
8Λ-type doubling Δv(v=0) = 0.0927(J+1/2).
9From Ne matrix absorption and emission spectra.
10Incompletely analysed emission band.
11Perturbed by a state of larger B value.
12Calculated from Ta18O frequency in neon.
13In the gas phase probably at 14362 cm-1.
14From the Ar matrix absorption spectrum.
15From Cheetham and Barrow, 1967; the observed band is too weak for analysis.
