Think about temperature changes without physical changes.
Write down the formula for calculating sensible heat.
What does Q stand for in the equation?
What is sensible heat?
Consider heat energy where the state of matter doesn't change.
If 2 kg of water (specific heat capacity 4.18 J/kg°C) is heated from 20°C to 80°C, how much heat is required?
Calculate the change in temperature and apply it in the formula.
You have a substance that weighs 1 kg and has a specific heat capacity of 5 J/kg°C. How much heat is needed to raise its temperature by 25°C?
Remember to apply the formula step by step.
A scientist is conducting an experiment. If she raises the temperature of 2.5 kg of oil (c = 2 J/kg°C) from 15°C to 70°C, calculate the sensible heat added.
Calculate the change in temperature before multiplying.
