Homework Statement


[/B]
What is the contribution of the conduction electrons in the molar entropy of a metal with
electronic coefficient of specific heat? I can't figure out how to comprehend this, which relation/theory might lead to this?
and How this answer is relevant to the point of molar Entropy?

Homework Equations


Cv = BT^3 + AT

The Attempt at a Solution


I don't know which relation/theory might lead to this?

Well, where are you in your curriculum ? PF is not a good replacement for a textbook, but more for specific focused questions...
