What has one of the greatest heat capacities?
Water - but strictly speaking a Specific Heat Capacity is more correct.
The complete combustion of acetylene C2H2g produces 1300 kJ of energy per mole of acetylene consumed How many grams of acetylene must be burned to produce enough heat to raise the temperature of?
The specific heat, or heat capacity, of the substance having its temperature raised will determine how much the heat affects its temperature. The units of heat capacity are a ratio of energy to the product of mass and temperature degree.
What is the specific heat capacity of chicken egg?
3.18 J/g⋅K Status: correct
What factors determine the lengths of the flat regions of the graphs and the slope of the curves between the flat regions?
Specific heat capacity
Specific heat and latent heat of LPG?
specific heat of lpg
What is the specific heat of air in imperial units?
Specific heat of air is 0.24 BTU/lb/degree F
What is the electrical method to determine the specific latent heat of vaporisation?
coclude the specific latent heat of vaporization
Specific heat of water H2O cgs units?
1.0
What metal has the specific heat of 0.30?
There are three metals that have this specific heat cast iron, chromium and iron. You have to check the physical characteristics of the metal you used in your lab to determine which out of the three is the correct one.
What are the units specikfic heat is commonly expressed in?
Specific heat capacity is the heat capacity per unit mass, and is expressed as
What are the units of heat?
The Specific Heat Capacity of water is 4,184 Joules per kg per Kelvin
Why is the correct equation rearranged to solve for specific heat?
Probably because somebody wanted, precisely, to find the specific heat.
Choose the correct formula for determining specific heat.?
(change of heat) ____________________ (change of temp)(mass)
How do you determine the specific heat capacity of an object by method of cooling?
the spesific heat capacity of a liquid by the mithod of cooling
What has one of the greatest heat capacities?
Water - but strictly speaking a Specific Heat Capacity is more correct.
Suppose a 14 gram sample of iron is heated from 20C to 25C The specific heat of iron is 0.11C How much heat energy was absorbed by the iron?
it depends on the units of the specific heat, but if they are J / goC then you would take your delta T (25-20) and multiply it by your mass (14g) and multiply by your specific heat. In this case it would be 5 * 14 * .11 = 7.7 (with whatever units of energy your specific heat is in.) Just make sure your units cancel out and you will get it right!
Is it correct that unit for specific heat capacity is meter square per second square per Celsius?
No. The Wikipedia lists units of J/(g x K) for some materials. Of course, to consistently use SI units, kilograms should be used instead of grams.
