Document Summary

The amount of energy required to raise the temperature of 1g of substance by 1 degree. The specific heat capacity of material is a measure of how easy it is to health or cool something down. Example: 2. 98 calories of heat are needed to raise a temperature of 2. 00 of metal from 25. 0 degrees c to 37 degrees c. calculate the metal using the table below to determine which metal it is. = (cid:2870). (cid:2877)(cid:2873) (cid:3039) (cid:2872). (cid:2869)(cid:2876)(cid:2872) (cid:2870). (cid:2868)(cid:2868) (cid:2869)(cid:2870). (cid:2868) (cid:3039) (cid:2870). (cid:2868)(cid:2868) (cid:4666)(cid:2871)(cid:2875). (cid:2868) (cid:2870)(cid:2873). (cid:2868)(cid:4667) A chemical substance that contains only one type of atom. Has a symbol for 1 or 2 letters.

To understand the concepts of heat capacity, specific heat, andmolar heat capacity.
Heat capacity, C, is the amount of energy required to raise thetemperature of a substance by exactly 1 degree Celsius. The energyneeded to warm an object increases as the mass of that objectincreases. We see this in our everyday life. For example, we knowthat it takes much more energy to heat a large tank of water than asmall cup. Because of this dependence on mass, experimentallydetermined heat capacities are always reported in terms of theamount of the substance that is heated. One method is to report howmuch energy it takes to raise the temperature of one mole of asubstance by exactly 1 degree Celsuis. This value is the molar heatcapacity, which has the symbol C_p.The molar heat capacity is givenin the units \rm J / mol \cdot{}^\circ C. A second method is toreport how much energy it takes to raise the temperature of onegram of a substance by exactly 1 degree Celsius. This value is thespecific heat, which has been given the symbol C_s. The units forspecific heat are \rm J / g \cdot{} ^\circ C.

The heat capacity of a substance is therefore related to the energyq needed to raise its temperature by an amount Delta T. That is, q= nC_{\rm p}\Delta T, where n denotes the number of moles of thesubstance, or q = mC_{\rm s}\Delta T, where m denotes the number ofgrams of the substance.
