For many gases the temperature dependence of the heat capacity Cp can be described in terms of a cubic equation: Cp=a+b*T+c*T^2+d*T^3 The following table gives the coefficients of the cubic equations for four gases. Here, Cp is in J/(g.mol)(oC) and T is in oC. a b c d SO2 a=38.91 b= 3.904x10-2 c=-3.105x10-5 d=8.606x10-9

SO3 a=48.50 b=9.188x10-2 c=-8.540x10-5 d=32.40x10-9

O2 a=29.10 b=1.158x10-2 c=-0.6076x10-5 d=1.311x10-9

N2 a=29.00 b= 0.2199x10-2 c=-0.5723x10-5 d=-2.871x10-9

Write a MATLAB script to calculate the heat capacity for each gas at temperatures ranging between 200 and 400oC at 20oC increments. To present the results, create an 11x5 matrix where the first column is the temperature, and the second through fifth columns are the heat capacities of SO2, SO3, O2, and N2, respectively. Print the matrix in a file.
