Question

Calculate the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 kg of iron

through 10C​

Answer 1

Explanation:

4,200 joules

The specific heat capacity of a material is theenergy required to raise one kilogram (kg) of the material by one degree Celsius (°C). The specificheat capacity of water is 4,200 joules perkilogram per degree Celsius (J/kg°C). This means that it takes 4,200 J to raise the temperature of 1 kg of water by 1°C.
