Specific Heat of Neodymium (Nd) + Sources, Uses, Origin ... 2022

Specific heat is an important physical property for materials and atomic elements like Neodymium. Ok, so what is the specific heat of an atom of Nd?

Note: Learn more about the specific heat here.

In the case of Neodymium the specific heat is 0.19 J/gK. Well... speaking of him, there are cool facts about Neodymium that most people don't know about. Let me show you...

Neodymium Data

Neodymium Specific Heat

0.19 J/gK

Video

Are you having trouble understanding the basics of atomic elements? This video will walk you through:

• What is an element
• What is a substance
• What Elements look like
• How a small number of atoms can be joined and form completely different substances

Citation

When you need to include a fact or piece of information in an assignment or essay you should also include where and how you found that piece of information.

That gives credibility to your paper and it is sometimes required in higher education.

To make your life (and citation) easier just copy & paste the information below into your assignment or essay:

Luz, Gelson. "Specific Heat of Neodymium (Nd) + Sources, Uses, Origin ..." Materials. Gelsonluz.com. dd mmmm. yyyy. <URL>

Now replace dd, mmmm and yyyy with the day, month, and year you browsed this page. Also replace URL for the actual url of this page (The < and > stay, ok?). This citation format is based on MLA.
