'The form of the regular'curve' is shown by the con'tinuous curve of figure
1, where C, is plotted against tlhe common logarithmn of the temperature, and
the individual points are 'those found for' magnesiun. The 'five lowest 'points
are taken from the measurements of Nerhst and Sh*wers7 'aiid the remainder
represent our own measurements. It is evident that 'at low temperatures the
specific heat curve for 'magnesium coincides wi'th the regular curve, but th'at
at higher temperatuires the'specific heat rises more rapidly than in the case of

3 Langmuir, J. Amer. Chem. Soc., Easton, Pa., 38, 1916, (2236), calls attention to the
possibility that the atom in a solid may not be vibrating in simple harmonic motion and
hence that the potential energy may not be equal to the kinetic energy, as has been assumed.
However, if this were the case the potential energy would in all probability be less than the
kinetic energy and not greater.

See Lewis and Gibson, J. Amer. Chem. Soc., Easton, Pa., 39, 1917, (2554).
The four highest points of Nernst and Schwers have been omitted since they appear to
us to be erroneous.
