In which temperature water has maximum specific heat capacity?
The specific heat capacity of water does not change much within-phase (ie, as a solid it has one specific heat capacity, as a liquid/gas it has another)
How does the phase of water affect its specific heat capacity?
Typical heat capacities are (exact values depend on temperature): Solid (Ice): 2.108 kJ/kg·K Liquid (water): 4.187 kJ/kg·K Gas (water vapor/steam): 1.996 kJ/-kg·K In comparison - you can see that liquid water has a higher heat capacity that ice or steam.
Does Liquid ammonia have a higher heat capacity than liquid water?
No, water is the record holder.
Does it take more energy as heat to raise the temperature of water by one degree than to raise the temperature of steam by the same amount?
Yes. The specific heat capacity of liquid water is 4.184 J/g•oC, and the specific heat capacity of steam is 2.010 J/g•oC.
Capacity of Propane tank with gross water capacity of 285 gals?
Assume liquid propane has a specific gravity of .51. For a liquid with that property DOT regulations say that for tanks under 1200 gallons, the maximum permitted filling density of the tank is 42% of the water weight capacity. Assume water weighs 8.33 lbs/gal. 285 x 8.33 = 2374 lbs capacity. 2374 x .42 = 997 lbs.
What is the specific heat value of ice?
* Specific heat capacity water liquid 4186 J/kgK "typical" ... 4210 J/kgK @ 275 K ; minimim 4178 J/kgK @ 308 K ; 4215 @ 370 K * Specific heat capacity water solid is 2050 J/kgK@ 270 K, drop to 1392 J/kgK @ 175 K * Specific heat capacity water vapor is 1890 J/kgK @ 375 K, up to 2000 J/kgK @ 575 K
What is the specific capacity of water?
At 20°C the specific heat capacity of water is 4.183 J/g °C or 4.183 J/gK.
Molar heat capacity of water?
Molar heat capacity of liquid water = 75.3538 Molar heat capacity = molar mass x specific heat
Does the volume of water change from solid to liquid form?
The water in ice has a larger volume that water in its liquid form. That is why Ice floats. Ice is less dense than liquid water.
What has the largest specific heat capacity brick iron water or glass?
Water.
Does hydrogen or water has high specific heat capacity?
Water has a MUCH higher specific heat than hydrogen.
Which item the towel the sand or the water - has the highest specific-heat capacity?
water
