1-kg of water (specific heat 4200 j/(kg c)) is mixed with 1-kg of a mystery substance. the water is initially at 35 c, and the mystery substance is initially at 20 c. the final temperature the mixture reaches is 25 c. what is the heat capacity of the mystery substance? answer in j/(kg c).

Sagot :

When 1 kg of water (specific heat 4200 j/(kg c)) and 1 kg of a mystery substance are combined, the mystery substance has a heat capacity of 8400 J/kg C. Initial water temperature is 35 c.

The quantity of heat that must be applied to an object in order to cause a unit change in temperature is known as the specific heat  or thermal capacity of that object. Joules per kelvin (J/K) is the SI unit for heat capacity. An extensive property is heat capacity. The unidentified compound was discovered to be extremely similar to the drug fluoxetine but not exactly the same. In actuality, the two compounds are isomers, which are atoms that are bound to one another in distinct ways despite having the same number and type of atoms.

1*4200(35-25) = 1*C(25-20)

C = (1*4200*10)/5

C = 8400J/kg C
