The following values have been obtained for the mean specific heats, of pure aluminium, nickel, cobalt, silver, and platinum, within the several limits of temperature indicated: From these results the specific heats at successive temperatures on the absolute scale have been calculated, and it appears that the assumption of a constant atomic heat at absolute zero is untenable. The mean specific heat of a sample of nickel steel, containing 36 percent, of nickel and having remarkably small dilatation, was found to be as follows.
