The Fermi Surface is the boundary of the fermi sea below which all states are occupied at zero temperature, it respecitvely a line, circle or a sphere in the 1,2 or the 3rd dimension.

#### Question 5.
If the electrons in the solid can be described by the free electron model, the heat capacity is dominated by the electrons, since $T^3$ decreases faster than $T$ as $T->0$.
