In a classical system the excess heat capacity for a monatomic fluid is given by subtracting the [[Ideal gas: Energy |ideal internal energy]] (which is kinetic in nature) | In a classical system the excess heat capacity for a monatomic fluid is given by subtracting the [[Ideal gas: Energy |ideal internal energy]] (which is kinetic in nature) |
