This would apply to a given molecule having a high energy of atomisation, and not to a high heat capacity. Heat capacity measurement depend on there being no chemical change in the substance before during and after the measurement. |

I was wondering how long it would take for someone to spot my deliberate mistake ;). Apart from the awful phrasing it isn't *that* wrong though, simply replacing 'chemical' with 'inter-molecular' would have sorted it. |
