The embedded-atom method is adopted to simulate the specific heat capacity of liquid silver. The relationship between the specific heat capacity and the temperature above and below melting point is derived. The results show that there exists an anormaly of the specific heat capacity of liquid silver near 950 K. Simulated pair distribution functions show that the liquid-to-glass transition takes place at this temperature.
