Abstract
The heat capacity at constant volume CV for liquid Na, K and Hg has been evaluated based on a critical analysis of experimental data. After substraction of the electronic heat capacity, CV smoothly decreases towards approximately 2k B per atom as the critical temperature is approached.Keywords
