Constant pressure heat capacity of gas

C_p,gas (cal/mol*K)	Temperature (K)	Reference	Comment
10.13 ± 0.30	279.	Stromsoe E., 1970	Heat capacity at 279 K was obtained by thermal conductivity [ Halford J.O., 1957]. Vapor heat capacities from calorimetric measurements [ De Vries T., 1941] were converted to the ideal gas heat capacities by corrections for the gas imperfection effects [ Chen S.S., 1977, Chao J., 1986, 2]. Ideal gas heat capacities are given by [ Stromsoe E., 1970] as a linear function Cp=f1(a+bT). This expression approximates the experimental values with the average deviation of 1.17 J/molK. The accuracy of the experimental heat capacities [ Stromsoe E., 1970] is estimated as less than 0.3%. Please also see De Vries T., 1941, Weltner W., 1951, Halford J.O., 1957.; GT
