What happens to heat capacity if mass id doubled?
Heat capacity is measured either for one gram or one mole of a substance so the mass of substance does not matter.
Which of the following would be the best material to use for making tea kettles A copper specific heat 380 B iron specific heat 450 C graphite specific heat 710 D aluminum specific heat 920?
aluminium
What is a valid unit for specific heat?
Joule/kilogram-kelvin The SI unit is joules / kelvin. This is valid for an object of any size, but if you want the typical specific heat for a certain type of material, you have to standardize it, resulting in either joules / (kelvin x kilogram) or joules / (kelvin x mole).
Specific heat and latent heat of LPG?
specific heat of lpg
The heat capacity of a .287g lead sinker used by fishermen?
0.0367 Heat capacity depends on the material that it's made out of. If the sinker is made out of cast iron, it'd be around 0.46 kJ/kg K. Google "specific heat of metals" for lists.
Effect of temperature on specific heat of material?
The effect of temperature on specific heat of material is referred to as specific heat capacity.
What does heat capacity depend on?
Mass and specific heat.
Is specific heat the same as specific gravity?
No. Specific heat is the amount of heat required to raise 1 kg of material by 1 K at constant pressure, while specific gravity is the ratio of the material's density to a reference density (typically water).
Is the heat capacity of a body the same as its specific heat capacity?
The heat capacity depends on the mass of a material and is expressed in j/K.The specific heat capacity not depends on the mass of a material and is expressed in j/mol.K.
Would it be better to have pots and pans made from material with a high specific heat capacity or low specific heat capacity?
Higher Heat
What is the ability of a substance to absorb heat energy is called?
Specific heat capacity describes how much heat energy that is needed to raise the temperature of material.
Materials with a high specific heat can absorb a lot of energy and show little change in temperature?
Yes. Specific heat capacity is the amount of heat energy required to change the temperature of the material, so a material with high specific heat needs a lot of heat energy for its temperature to go up.
The specific heat of the material is?
specific heat content is calculated by the joules of energy required to change the temperature of one cubic centimeter of the material 1 degree Celsius.
What is the relationship between specific heat and rate of heating?
change in temperature does not effect specific heat. for example,specific heat of water is 4.14 j/g.k at any temperature
Which measurement describes the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of one gram of a material by one degree Celsius?
the term is known as specific heat of that substance
