The molar heat capacity of N2(g) in the range 200 K to 400 K is given by Cp,m/(J K−1 mol−1) = 28.58 + 3.77 × 10–3(T/K). Given that the standard molar entropy of N2(g) at 298 K is 191.6 J K−1 mol−1, calculate the value at 373 K. Repeat the calculation but this time assuming that Cp,m is independent of temperature and takes the value 29.13 J K−1 mol−1. Comment on the difference between the results of the two calculations.
