3 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
Define specific heat capacity.
Think about how heat affects temperature per unit mass.
What unit is used for measuring specific heat capacity?
Focus on the relationship between energy, mass, and temperature.
What is the unit of specific heat capacity?
Think about how we measure thermal energy with mass.
True or False: Specific heat capacity is the same as heat capacity.
Consider the difference between total and unit measurements.
You have a metal and water system where 500 J of heat is added to 0.5 kg of metal (specific heat = 400 J/kg/K) and 1 kg of water (specific heat = 4186 J/kg/K). If both start at 20 °C, what will be their final equilibrium temperature?
Set up an equation where heat lost by one equals heat gained by another.
A calorimeter contains 200 g of water at 25 °C. If it absorbs 1000 J of heat, what will the final temperature be?
Calculate the temperature rise and then add to the initial temperature.
