Suppose that 28 g of each of the following substances is initially at 27.0circ C What is the final temperature of each substance upon absorbing 2.45 kJ of heat?

To find the final temperature of each substance, you need to calculate the specific heat capacity of each substance. Once you have the specific heat capacity, you can use the formula Q = mcΔT to find the final temperature. Substituting the given values into the formula will give you the final temperature of each substance.


What is the specific heat capacity of copper sulphate?

The specific heat capacity of copper sulfate varies with temperature. At room temperature, it is approximately 0.39 J/g°C.


Why does the thermocouple have a little heat capacity?

The thermocouple has a small heat capacity to respond quickly to changes in temperature. This allows it to provide fast and accurate temperature readings by minimizing the lag time between the actual temperature and the reading displayed.


Would substances with high specific heat capacity also have high temperatures?

Specific heat capacity is the amount of energy or heat required to raise the temperature of a unit mass of a substance by one kelvin. So if the specific heat capacity is high then you would require more energy or heat to raise its temperature. The specific heat capacity does not really have anything to do with how much you can increase an objects temperature. IT HAS TO DO WITH THE ENERGY NEEDED TO INCREASE THE TEMPERATURE.


What term describes how much energy it takes to change the temperature of the substance?

What is heat capacity of H2SiO3 relation of temperature?

The heat capacity of H2SiO3 (silicic acid) typically increases with temperature as more energy is required to raise the temperature of the substance. The specific heat capacity value at any given temperature can be obtained from experimental measurements or theoretical calculations.


Why the experimental value of specific heat capacity is higher than the standars value?

Experimental errors would cause the experimental value of specific heat capacity to be higher than the standard value.


can you Compare the experimental value obtained for the specific heat capacity with the theoretical value?

Yes.


A 55 g aluminum block initially at 27.5 Celsius degrees absorbs 725J of heat what is the final temperature of the aluminuim?

Using the specific heat capacity of aluminum (0.897 J/g°C), you can calculate the change in temperature using the formula Q = mcΔT, where Q is the heat absorbed (725J), m is the mass of aluminum block (55g), c is the specific heat capacity, and ΔT is the change in temperature. Rearranging the formula to solve for ΔT and substituting the values, you can then find the final temperature by adding the change in temperature to the initial temperature (27.5°C). Calculate and the final temperature of the aluminum block will be the sum of the initial temperature and the change in temperature.


What is the relationship between temperature change and the heat capacity at constant pressure?

The relationship between temperature change and heat capacity at constant pressure is that as the temperature increases, the heat capacity also increases. Heat capacity is a measure of how much heat energy is needed to raise the temperature of a substance by a certain amount, and it tends to increase with temperature because the substance can absorb more heat energy as it gets hotter.

How is heating related to a substance's temperature?

As an object is heated, the rate of increase in temperature is proportional to the rate of heat added. The proportionality is called the heat capacity. Because the heat capacity is actually a function of temperature in real materials, the total amount of energy added will be equal to the integral of the heat capacity function over the interval from the initial temperature to the final temperature. If you just assume an average heat capacity over the temperature range, then the rise in temperature will be exactly proportional to the amount of heat added.
