Q1: The heat capacity of a solid compound is calculated from the atomic heat capacities of its constituent elements with the help of theA Trouton's rule
B Kopp's rule
C Antonie equation
D Kistyakowsky equation
ANS:B - Kopp's rule The heat capacity of a solid compound is calculated from the atomic heat capacities of its constituent elements with the help of Kopp's rule. Kopp's rule states that the molar heat capacity of a solid compound can be approximated as the sum of the products of the atomic heat capacities of its constituent elements and their respective atomic proportions in the compound. Therefore, the correct answer is: Kopp's rule. Kopp's rule is a heuristic rule used in chemistry to estimate the molar heat capacity of a solid compound based on the heat capacities of its constituent elements. It was formulated by the German chemist Hermann Kopp in the 19th century. The rule states that the molar heat capacity (𝐶C) of a solid compound can be approximated as the sum of the products of the atomic heat capacities (𝐶𝑖Ci) of its constituent elements and their respective atomic proportions (𝑥𝑖xi) in the compound: 𝐶compound=∑𝑖𝑥𝑖⋅𝐶𝑖Ccompound=∑ixi⋅Ci Where:
