Specific heat capacity : Latest News, Information, Answers and Websites
How does the low specific heat capacity of the material makes it a good thermal conductor?
How does the low Specific heat capacity of the material makes it a good thermal conductor?
Answer: specific heat indicates how much energy needed to increase the temp of a material
conductivity indicates how well it transfers energy
these properties are not always related however.....
if you are looking for a thermal conduction you want it to transfer heat energy not absorb it -
low specific heat means it will heat up or cool down with less energy transfered- and it does not hold on to as much thermal energy- this is often useful to conduct heat Category: Physics
To find the specific heat capacity of water, why is it important to use a copper calorimeter?
I already know that the Specific heat capacity of copper is easy to find so it makes it easy to work with, but why would I want to use a material with such a high conductivity to test the Specific heat capacity of water when the point is to try and insulate the water to be able to properly measure its temperature rise?
This is for my A2 physics coursework, any help would be greatly appreciated.
Answer: I reckon it might be so that the calorimeter and the water will be at the same temperature so that you can apply the formula that uses the Specific heat capacity of copper.
Think of it this way: if your calorimeter was made of 1kg of plastic, and the water rise is 50 degrees, then the inside of the container will rise by 50 degrees (representing perhaps 0.25kg of the weight of the container), but the outside of the container will be at around room temperature (i.e. temperature rise = 0), so the heat energy absorbed by the container will no longer simply be Q=m.c.dT, you'll have a certain mass with a certain temperature rise (the part of the container in contact with the water), another mass with a smaller temperature rise (the outside of the container in contact with the air), and countless pieces in between, each at an intermediate temperature and of different mass, so this would be an extremely complicated problem requiring integration to solve accurately (don't know if you've heard of integration yet... it's like an infinite ammount of summations).
Using a copper container means that the whole calorimeter, both inside and out is at more or less the same temperature so that you can use the mass of the calorimeter and the temperature rise of the water in your calculation with good accuracy.
I assume that your calorimeter would be well insulated from the atmosphere by lagging or foam to minimize external heat losses - that's how I did this experiment way back :-).
Hope mine is the best answer... please? Category: Physics
How to answer this specific heat capacity question?
An electric heater warms a 1kg block of copper with 9000J. The Specific heat capacity of copper is 380 J/Kg/K. What is the temperature rise?
Please be clear about the units? If the Specific heat capacity is in K do I need to have an answer in K or in ºC? Because Ive also read somewhere that the Specific heat capacity of copper is 380 J/Kg/ºC. It seems the two are intercangeable...
Thanks!
Answer: Let us break this down..
q=mcat or
heat = mass * heat capacity * change in temperature
we are trying to solve for change in temperature so let us flip the equation around...
heat / (mass * heat capacity) = change in temp
9000 J / (1kg * 380 J/Kg/K)
Keep all the units matching (kg and kg... j and j.... K and K)
from this we get:
9000 J / 380 JK = change in temp (380 is JK because the mass KG cancels out the KG in the specific heat)
= roughly 23.68 degrees rounded to the hundreths. The J and J cancel So the temperature rose 23.68 K or C. The answer would be the same regardless of whether it is Celcius or Kelvin so you may put whichever you choose!!!
because K = C + 273.13
So when K rises 23 degrees... C rises the exact same amount. Category: Physics

Does the specific heat capacity of water change when measured in a different temperature range?
In an experiment I heated water with 3 initial and final temperatures. By solving the equation Q=mcΔT for c and plugging in the values I got an average Specific heat capacity of about 2287J/Kg*K. The actual Specific heat capacity of water found in every source is 4190 J/Kg*K. Is the Specific heat capacity of water dependent on the range of temperature measured at? If yes, how does the Specific heat capacity change?
Answer: Yes, the specific heat capacities of substances comprising molecules like water are not fixed constants and will vary somewhat depending on its temperature. Accordingly, the temperature at which the measurement is made is usually also specified. Examples of two common ways to cite the specific heat of water are as follows:
Water (liquid): cp = 4.1855 J g–1 K–1 (15 °C), and
Water (liquid): CvH = 74.539 J mol–1 K–1 (25 °C) Category: Physics
How to determine the specific heat capacity of a metal?
A 20.0-g sample of an unknown metal is heated to 96.0°C and is placed in a insulated container containing 126 g of water at a temperature of 20.4°C. After the metal cools, the final temperature of the metal and water is 23.2°C. Calculate the Specific heat capacity of the metal, assuming that no heat escapes to the surroundings.
Answer: heat lost by the metal = heat gained by the water
mCdT metal = m C dT water
(20.0 grams)(C)(72.8 drop in temp) = (126 g)(4.184 J/g-C)(2.8 rise in temp)
1456 (C) = 1476 Joules
C of the metal = 1.01 J/g-C Category: Chemistry

What is the specific heat capacity of the following problem?
A 10.0g piece of metal at 100 degrees Celsius is transferred to a calorimeter containing 50.0mL of water initially at 23.0 degrees Celsius. Calculate the Specific heat capacity of the metal if the heat Capacity of the calorimeter Ccal is 25.0J/K. The final temperature is 25.6 degrees Celsius.
Answer: the metal cooled from 100C down to 25.6C
while the water & the calorimeter warmed from 23 C up to 25.6C
heat lost by the metal = heat gained by water & by the calorimeter
- m C dT metal = m C dT water & C dT calorimeter
- [10(C)(25.6C -100)] = (50g)(4.184J/g-C)(25.6 - 23) & 25.0J/K(25.6 - 23C)

Heat energy gained by the water, Q= mcΔT where m is the mass of the water, c is the Specific heat capacity of water and ΔT is the change in temperature of the water.
Q= 15.0 x 4.186 x (50.5-22)
= 1789.515 J
Heat energy gained by the piece of metal, Q= mcΔT where m is the mass of the metal, c is the Specific heat capacity of the metal and ΔT is the change in temperature of the metal which is 28.5°C
Rearranging the formula, we get c= Q/mΔT
= 1789.515/(80)(28.5)
= 0.784875J/kg/°C(answer)

What is the specific heat capacity of the metal?
A 10.0 g piece of metal at 100 °C is transferred to a calorimeter containing 50.0 mL of water initially at is 25.0 °C. Calculate the Specific heat capacity of the metal if the heat the heat capacity of the calorimeter Ccal is 25.0 J/°K. The final temperature, Tfinal is 25.6 °C.
Answer: The heat lost by the metal = the heat absorbed by the water + calorimeter.
Heat absorbed by water = mass H2O x sp.ht. H2O x delta T =
(50.0 g)(4.184 J/g K)(25.6 - 25.0) = 126 J
Heat absorbed by calorimeter = Cp x delta T = (25.0 J/K)(25.6 - 25.0) = 15 J
Total heat absorbed by water + calorimeter = 126 + 15 = 141 J = heat lost by metal
Heat lost by metal = mass metal x sp.ht. metal x delta T =
(10.0 g)(sp. ht. metal)(100 - 25.6) = 744 x sp.ht. metal
141 = 744 x sp.ht. metal
141 / 744 = sp.ht. metal = 0.190 J/g K
I have assumed that the density of water = 1.00 g/mL (so that 50 mL = 50 g). Also, delta T in Celsius is the same as delta T in Kelvins.

What is the specific heat capacity of the specimen?
A precious-stone dealer wishes to find the Specific heat capacity of a 0.040-kg gemstone. The specimen is heated to 95.0°C and then placed in a 0.13-kg copper vessel that contains 0.072 kg of water at equilibrium at 25.0°C. The loss of heat to the external environment is negligible. When equilibrium is established, the temperature is 31.0°C.
Answer: Heat lost from the water and copper equals heat gained by gem.
specific heat of water is 4.186 kJ/kgC
specific heat of copper is 386 J/kgC
4.186 kJ/kgC x 0.072 kg x (31–25) + 0.386 J/kgC x 0.13 kg x (31–25) = SH x 0.04 kg x (95–31)
1.808 + 0.301 = SH x 2.56
SH = 0.824 kJ/kgC or 824 J/kgC
