One model for this quantity predicts a low-temperature dependence proportional to the temperature cubed and treats atomic vibrations as phonons in a box.
One model for this quantity predicts a low-temperature dependence proportional to the temperature cubed and treats atomic vibrations as phonons in a box. Both the Einstein and Debye models recover the Dulong-Petit law at high temperatures. Defined as the ratio of an increment of heat to an increment of temperature, its value for water is used to define the calorie. For 10 points, name this quantity, which indicates how much heat energy would be required to increase the temperature of an object.
