Question

In kerosene and water which takes more time to rise it's temperature for a certain degrees Celsius

Answer 1

◆ Rate of rise in temperature depends on the nature of the substances.

◆ Rate of rise in temperature depends on specific heat.

◆ If specific heat is high, the rate of rise in temperature is low and vice versa for the same quantity of heat supplied.

◆ Among all the liquids, water has the highest specific heat.

◆Thus, water consumes more time than kerosene to rise their temperature to the same temperature with same initial temperature.

◆ Hence we can conclude that water takes more time to rise its temperature than kerosene.


hope this helps you.
