Channel: ViaScience
Date: 2020-06-12

In this video, we develop and discuss the final law of thermodynamics - the Third Law. We find that the Third Law is intimately connected with the concept of heat capacity, and fundamentally relies on the quantum-mechanical nature of matter. In this segment, we develop the Einstein Model for the heat capacity of solids.
