Problem

Consider the following data:MetalAlCuMass (g)1030Specific heat [J/(g °C)]0.9000.385Tempera...

Consider the following data:

Metal

Al

Cu

Mass (g)

10

30

Specific heat [J/(g °C)]

0.900

0.385

Temperature (°C)

40

60

When these two metals are placed in contact, which of the following will take place?

(a) Heat will flow from Al to Cu because Al has a larger specific heat.


(b) Heat will flow from Cu to Al because Cu has a larger mass.


(c) Heat will flow from Cu to Al because Cu has a larger heat capacity.


(d) Heat will flow from Cu to Al because Cu is at a higher temperature.


(e) No heat will flow in either direction.
