How can the specific heat of water be used to determine the specific heat of an object?
If you know the temperature and mass of an object, and the temperature, mass, and specific heat of the water, if you dunk the object in the water, and measure the temperature of the water and the object (once the object and water have the same temperature), using reasoning skills and/or equations you can figure out the specific heat of the object. Historically the specific heat was related to SH of water . Water being 1 That now is seen as archaic. The specific heat (of a substance) is the amount of heat per unit mass required to raise the temperature by one degree Celsius. This does not apply if a phase change is encountered. Every substance has to be measured separately .
What factor most influence the amount of energy needed to change the temperature of a substance?
specific heat capacity
What has higher specific heat water or lead?
Water has much higher specific heat than lead. All metals have fairly low specific heat values.
A thermostat bottle contains of 250g of coffee at 90C to this is added 20g of milk at 5C After equilibrium is established what is the temperature of the liquid?
To answer this question (at least the only way I know of) you first need to know the specific heat capacities (symbolized by C) of both milk and coffee. The formula for heat transfer equations is: q1 = -q2 where (we'll call q1 milk's heat) q1 = C (specific heat of milk) x ΔT x mass (g) and q2 = C (specific heat coffee) x ΔT x mass (g) and where ΔT = (final temperature - initial temperature) So, if you substitute in 250g for the mass of coffee, 90 degrees for its initial temperature, do the same for the milk side of the equation, and put their specific heat capacities in the two equations, you can solve for the final temperature by substitution.
What is the specific heat of americium?
The specific heat of americium is: 0,11 J/gK
What is the chemical formula for heat?
The chemical formula for heat is not a specific compound, as heat is a form of energy and not a substance with a distinct chemical formula. Heat is typically represented in equations using the symbol "Q" or "H" to denote the transfer of thermal energy.
Define enthalpy and how it is measured?
Enthalpy is a particular amount of heat that is produced or released at a given pressure. There are specific equations that must be used to calculate enthalpy.
What is the chemical symbol for heat?
Heat added to catalyze a chemical reaction is represented by the Greek letter delta above the yield arrow.
What is the equation for specific equations?
Q = mc(delta)T Q = quantity of heat energy m = mass c = specific heat capacity different constant for each different substance (delta)T = difference in temperature (subtract high temp - low temp)
How can one determine the amount of heat energy present in a system and what methods can be used to find heat energy?
One can determine the amount of heat energy in a system by measuring the temperature change and the specific heat capacity of the material. Methods to find heat energy include using calorimetry, thermometers, and equations such as Q mcT.
Can you measure Latent heat with a thermometer?
No, latent heat cannot be measured directly with a thermometer. Latent heat is the energy absorbed or released during a phase change (e.g. melting, boiling) without a change in temperature. The amount of latent heat can be calculated using specific equations and constants for each substance.
How many methods are there for solving quadratic equations?
There are several methods for solving quadratic equations, although some apply only to specific quadratic equations of specific forms. The methods include:Use of the quadratic formulaCompleting the SquareFactoringIterative methodsguessing
Why to determine the specific gravity?
Its handy in shortening equations and sums.
Why specific heat is large specific volume?
Specific heat has nothing to do with specific volume.
What is the specific heat of sinter?
Specific heat of sinter
Why do you check your answers for rational equations and radical equations?
You plug the number back into the original equation. If you have a specific example, that would help.
