Mass of a bronze block is 1kg. To raise the temperature of this block from `25^(@)C` to `125^(@)C`, heat required is 40000J. Find the specific heat of the block in `J//kg""^(@)C`

A

200

B

500

C

600

D

400

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
According to formula, `Q= m xx s xx Delta t`
As, `Delta t= 125-25= 100`
`rArr s= (40000)/(1 xx 100)= 400J//kg ""^(@)C`

How much heat (in joule) is required to raise the temperature of 205 g of water from 21.2^(@)C to 91.4^(@)C . Specific heate of water is 4.18 J g^(-1) .^(@)C^(-1) Strategy : The specific heat of a substance is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1g of the substance by 1^(@C . Thus Specific heat = (("Amount of heat in joules"))/(("Mass of substance in grams")("Temperature change in" .^(@)C)) Rearrangement gives. Amount of heat (q) = Mass of substance (m) xx Specific heat (c ) xx Temperature change (Delta T)
