A 39.40 g39.40 g sample of a substance is initially at 22.3 °C.22.3 °C. After absorbing 1899 J1899 J of heat, the temperature of the substance is 141.1 °C.141.1 °C. What is the specific heat (?c) of the substance?
Mass of the substance(m) = 39.40 g
The initial temperature of the substant (Ti) = 22.3 oC
The final temperature of the system(Tf) = 141.1 oC
Heat absorbed(q) = 1899 J
The formula to determine the heat is as follows:
q = m X C x T
Here, heat is q, mass is m, specific heat capacity is C, and temperature difference is T.
Rearrange the formula for C as follows:
C = q / (m x T)
Determine T as follows:
T = Tf - Ti
T = 141.1 oC - 22.3 oC
T = 118.8 oC
Now,
C = 1899 J / (39.40 g x 118.8 oC)
C = 0.406 J/g oC
Hence, the specific heat of the substance is 0.406 J/g oC. [3 S.F]
