We have made heat-capacity measurements on ethane films adsorbed on graphtie for coverages between n=1.3 and 3.7 layers and for temperatures between 65 and 95 K. Two phase transitions are observed in the vicinity of the bilayer melting point. We propose an interpretation for our results based on an analogy with the behavior of bulk ethane. Comparisons are made between our results and those of an ellipsometric-isotherm study of this system.
