Best Answer

This is just a division problem, where

Q is the change in energy

T is the change in temperature in degrees C (or K)

C is the specific heat

m is the mass

C = ΔQ/ΔT and Q = CmT

1.33 joules = (0.129 joule/gram degree)(5 grams)(T degrees)

1.33 = 0.645 T

T = 1.33 / 0.645 = 2.06 degrees Celsius

How do you calculate the total heat required in kcal to take 70 grams of ice at -29.0 Celsius and convert it to steam at 106 Celsius?

heat energy required to raise the temperature of ice by 29 celsius =specific heat capacity of ice * temperature change *mass of ice + to change 1kg of ice at 0 celsius to water at 0 celsius =specific latent of fusion of ice*mass of water + heat energy required to raise the temperature of water by 106 celsius =specific heat capacity of water * temperature change *mass of ice + to change 1kg of water at 106 celsius to steam at 106 celsius =specific latent of fusion of ice*mass of steam


What is specific heat capacity?

Is the amount of energy that is required to change the temperature of 1kg of a substance by 1 degree Celsius with no state change.


The specific heat of the material is?

specific heat content is calculated by the joules of energy required to change the temperature of one cubic centimeter of the material 1 degree Celsius.


What is specific heat capacity equation?

Quantity of Energy= mass x temperature change x specific heat capacity For example: Find the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of 0.20 kg of lead by 15 degree Celsius if the specific heat capacity of lead is 0.90 J/g degree Celsius. Answer: J=200g x 15 degree Celsius x 0.90 J/g degree Celsius = 2700 J

How are heat and specific heat related?

heat does not effect specific heat. for example if water has a high specific heat, a change in heat wont effect its specific heat.P.S if you don't like my answer, please improve it.I like people who are honest.Heat is a form of energy. Heat either changes the state of matter from solid to liquid to gas OR it changes the temperature.Specific heat (also called specific heat capacity) is the amount of heat that a substance (like water) absorbs when exactly one gram of that substance is heated so that its temperature increases by one degree Celsius. The specific heat relates three quantities: the heat applied, the temperature change, and the mass of the object.An amount of heat may be 100 calories.The specific heat capacity allows us to calculate the temperature change for a quantity of a substance to which that heat is applied.Since the specific heat of water is 1 calorie per gram degree Celsius if 100 calories is applied to 50 grams of water then the temperature only changes 2 degrees Celsius.

How do you change the temperature gauge from Celsius to Fahrenheit on a Buick Lacrosse?

I need to know how to change the temperature gauge from Celsius to Fahrenheit on a 2012 Buick LaCrosse


What is the correct formula for calculating the change of temperature from Fahrenheit to Celsius?

To calculate Fahrenheit to Celsius, you take the temperature in Fahrenheit and multiply it by 0.8. Using the answer of that number, subtract 32 from it. That is your temperature in Celsius. To change that temperature back to Fahrenheit, you would add 32 to your Celsius temperature. After getting that answer, you divide it by 0.8 and Voislá, you're back at your temperature in Fahrenheit.
