Answer: =0.26J/gC
Explanation:
From the question, we are informed that the solid requires 124 J of heat to raise the temperature of 95.5 g of substance from 20.0 to 25.0. The specific heat required would be:
Specific heat = energy required / (temperature difference × mass )
=124J / (5C × 95g)
= 124J / 495gC
=0.26J/gC
