The amount of heat a substance can hold.
specific heat is the amount of heat to be absorbed required to raise a substance 1 degree celsius. And by heat being absorbed, i mean energy, because specific heat is measured in joules
The specific heat of substance A is greater than that for substance B. If both sample sizes are the same and they both start at the same temperature and equal amounts of heat are added to both these samples, substance A will have a lower temperature than substance B.
The equation for specific heat is: C = q/temp. change x mass. C is a substance's specific heat, which is a constant for every substance. q is its heat capacity in joules, temp. change is the change in temperature in degrees Celsius, and mass is in grams.
We know that Q=m.s.t, where Q= Heat, s= Specific heat of the substance, t=temperature(Difference in temperatures) =>s= Q/m.t =>s=525/(25X15) =>s=525/375 =>s=1.4 cal/g/0c Specific heat of the substance is 1.4 cal/g/0c.
The amount of heat required to increase the temperature of the substance to 1 degree greater than that of the initial temperature of the body!
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.
The ability of a substance to hold heat.
specific heat thermometer
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.
The ability of a substance to hold heat.
The ability of a substance to hold heat.
No, it is not possible for the specific heat of a substance to have a negative value.
The ability of a substance to hold heat.
Some specific heat questions that can deepen understanding of the concept include: How does the specific heat of a substance affect its ability to absorb or release heat? Why do different substances have different specific heat capacities? How does the specific heat of a substance relate to its temperature change when heat is added or removed? How can the specific heat of a substance be experimentally determined? How does the specific heat of a substance impact its thermal conductivity and overall heat transfer properties?
A substance with a high specific heat will easily change temperature.
A substance with a high specific heat will easily change temperature.
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.
