“…Several studies performed on silicate glasses and liquids have demonstrated that anhydrous chemical composition and water, the most abundant volatile in magmatic systems, strongly affect the structure (e.g., Mysen et al, 1982;Stolper, 1982a,b;Mysen, 1997;Mercier et al, 2009;Xue, 2009), the physical properties (viscosity, diffusivity, density, heat capacities; Persikov et al, 1990;Ochs and Lange, 1999;Whittington et al, 2000Whittington et al, , 2009Romano et al, 2001;Bouhifd et al, 2006;Vetere et al, 2007;Behrens and Zhang, 2009;Giordano et al, 2009;Fanara et al, 2012;Di Genova et al, 2013, 2014, the phase relationships and crystallization behavior of magmas (Fenn, 1977;Muncill and Lasaga, 1988;Davis et al, 1997;Vona and Romano, 2013). The isobaric heat capacity (Cp) is a thermodynamic property related to variations in the internal energy in a system and to structural changes of the silicate framework in response to temperature variations.…”
