  • This video explains how to calculate the change in heat, the change in temperature and the specific heat of a substance. The change in heat is calculated as the mass of the substance times the specific heat of the substance times the change in temperature of the substance.
    Q = m x c x T
    Specific heat is defined as the amount of heat needed to change the temperature of one gram of a substance by one degree celsius.

    • @stepbystepscience
      @stepbystepscience  4 года назад

      The change in temperature is always final minus initial and then the change in heat can be negative if the rxn is exothermic.

    Hi thanks so much for the video, if you see this please may you explain why you divide the specific heat by 1000 in the first question its just a bit confusing. Thanks so much

    • @stepbystepscience
      @stepbystepscience  2 года назад

      Yes, my error, I did not divide by 1000 the specific heat is 4.148 J/gC, but I used a comma by mistake, instead of a decimal point in the question part. I am currently teaching in Germany where they use the comma and the period opposite to the way you do in the US. Sorry for the confusion.

    Can someone solve this question? Do I need to refer steam table to find the value of specific heat, specific latent heat & specific heat of steam as those information are not given?
    The question are as follows...
    "Determine the amount of heat needed to completely transform 1 g of water at 15°C to steam at 115°C".

  • @dionisienatea3137
    @dionisienatea3137 Год назад +1

    hi. i was doing a experiment to measure water specific heat capacity in a controlled environment with high precision temperature measuring equipment and energy meters, vacuum insulated water container, 4.5kg of distilled water-to minimize the errors, i was stirring the water to avoid temperature stratification and every single time i got values for Cp around 4724 J/kgC. I run out of ideas of what could create the difference. Can we find out who and when and how were calculated values for water what we take for granted? i calculated the thermal losses to minute values and still doesn't get even close to the book values for water Cp-the difference is too high. Can anyone please give me an idea?

    How to solve this question?
    300g of water at temperature 40 degree celcius is mixed with 900g of water at temperature 80 degree celcius. If there is no heat loss to the surrounding, what is the final temperature when thermal equilibrium is achieved by the mixture of water?

    how about the temperature is in K? Am I going to convert it into °C?

    • @stepbystepscience
      @stepbystepscience  3 года назад

      If the temperature is given in Celsius just add that to 273.15, because 0 C = 273.15 K. For example, 25 C = 298.15 K.
