Given :
Mass of water = 10g
Supplied heat energy = 420J
To Find :
Raise in the temperature of water.
Solution :
❖ Specific heat capacity of substance is defined as the heat required to increase temperature of 1g substance by 1°C.
Formula : s = Q / m ∆T
- s denotes specific heat capacity
- Q denotes supplied energy
- m denotes mass
- ∆T denotes change in temperature
Specific heat capacity of water is 4.2 J/g °C
By substituting the given values;
➙ Q = m s ∆T
➙ 420 = 10 × 4.2 × ∆T
➙ ∆T = 42/4.2
➙ ∆T = 10°C
Knowledge BoosteR :
- Specific heat capacity of water is very large. This is the reason why water is used as a coolant in automobile radiators as well as a heater in hot water bags.
- Determination of specific heat or latent heat of a substance using principle of calorimetry is good enough provided there is no loss of heat

Raise in the temperature of water.
Let,
s = specific heat capacity
Q = supplied energy
m = mass
∆T= change in temperature
Specific heat capacity of is 4.2 J/g °C
Substituting the given values,
➙ Q = m s ∆T
➙ 420 = 10 × 4.2 × ∆T
➙ ∆T = 42/4.2
➙ ∆T = 10°C
