Özet

wThis study gives our calculation for the specific heats C-VI due to an Ising model using the observed C-P data for the II-III and II-IV phase transitions in NH4I. By fitting to the Cp data we determine the values of the critical exponent for the pressure of 0.14 GPa (II-III phase transition) and for the pressures of 0.75, 1.35 and 1.97GPa (II-IV phase transition) in NH4I. Our exponent values are close to the predicted values of the specific heat in a three-dimensional Ising model. Our calculated C-VI are in good agreement with the experimental Cp for NH4I in most cases.
