If specific heat of a glass is 37 J/kg ⁰c then the amount of heat required to change the temperature of 1 kg block made from glass from 15⁰c to 16⁰c will be-
Answers
Answer:
Mass of the metal, m = 0.20 kg = 200 g
Initial temperature of the metal, T
1
= 150
o
C
Final temperature of the metal, T

C
Calorimeter has water equivalent of mass, m = 0.025 kg = 25 g
Volume of water, V = 150 cm

Mass (M) of water at temperature T = 27

C:
150×1=150g
Fall in the temperature of the metal:

Specific heat of the metal =C
Heat lost by the metal, =mCT .... (i)
Rise in the temperature of the water and calorimeter system: T

200×C×110=(150+25)×4.186×13
C=(175×4.186×13)/(110×200)=0.43Jg

If some heat is lost to the surroundings, then the value of C will be smaller than the actual value.
