What does the specific heat of a substance relate to temperature change?
The specific heat of a substance is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one unit of mass of the substance by one degree Celsius. A substance with a high specific heat will require more heat to increase its temperature compared to a substance with a lower specific heat.
What does the specific heat of a substance?
The ability of a substance to hold heat.
What thermometer measures -specific heat of a substance -absolute temperature of substance -heat intensity?
specific heat thermometer
What is a substance that has a specific heat?
Water is a substance that has a specific heat. Specific heat is the amount of heat energy required to raise the temperature of a substance by a certain amount. Water's high specific heat is what allows it to absorb and release large amounts of heat without drastic temperature changes, making it an important factor in climate regulation and a key component in living organisms.
What factor most influence the amount of energy needed to change the temperature of a substance?
specific heat capacity
What does the specific heat of substance represent?
The ability of a substance to hold heat.
What does the specific heat of a substance relate to temperature change?
The specific heat of a substance is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one unit of mass of the substance by one degree Celsius. A substance with a high specific heat will require more heat to increase its temperature compared to a substance with a lower specific heat.
What does the specific heat of a substance?
The ability of a substance to hold heat.
Will specific heat of 50 g of a substance be the same as or greater than the specific heat of 10 g of the same substance?
The specific heat of a substance is a characteristic property that remains constant regardless of the amount. Therefore, the specific heat of 50 g of a substance will be the same as the specific heat of 10 g of the same substance.
What thermometer measures -specific heat of a substance -absolute temperature of substance -heat intensity?
specific heat thermometer
What does the specific heat of a substance represents?
The ability of a substance to hold heat.
How does specific heat of a substance relate to temperature change?
A substance with a high specific heat will easily change temperature.
How does the specific heat of a substance relate to temperature change?
A substance with a high specific heat will easily change temperature.
What is the Symbol to represent specific heat capacity?
Q is used to represent the total heat q is used to represent heat per unit mass. Sometimes the q will have a dot above it to represent rate of heat or a carat above it to indicate specific heat. The same is true for Q.
When the same quantity of heat is added per unit as does a substance having a lower specific heat warm more or less than a substance having a higher specific heat?
A substance with a lower specific heat will warm more than a substance with a higher specific heat when the same quantity of heat is added. This is because substances with lower specific heat require less energy to increase their temperature compared to substances with higher specific heat.
What variable represent specific heat?
The unit for the specific heat capacity is J/kg.K.
