Question

A sample of an unknown substance has a mass of 89.5 g. If 345.2 J of heat are required to heat the substance from 285 K to 305 K, what is the specific heat of the substance?

Answer 1

For this you use the equation Q=mCdeltaT

345.2J = 89.4gC(305-285)K

Keep track of units to find the specific heat unit (not exactly sure which unit you are using)

Answer 2

Answer:

0.193 is the answer
