Answer:
c =0.2 J/g.°C
Explanation:
Given data:
Specific heat of material = ?
Mass of sample = 12 g
Heat absorbed = 48 J
Initial temperature = 20°C
Final temperature = 40°C
Solution:
Specific heat capacity:
It is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of substance by one degree.
Formula:
Q = m.c. ΔT
Q = amount of heat absorbed or released
m = mass of given substance
c = specific heat capacity of substance
ΔT = change in temperature
ΔT = 40°C -20°C
ΔT = 20°C
48 J = 12 g×c×20°C
48 J =240 g.°C×c
c = 48 J/240 g.°C
c =0.2 J/g.°C
Explanation:
Certain materials, called conductors, allow electric charge to move pretty freely through them. ... Other materials, like plastic and rubber, are called insulators because they don't allow electric charges to move through them.
