A 108.9 g sample of water absorbs 114.6 calories of heat. The specific heat capacity of water is 1 cal/(g·°C). By how much did the temperature of this sample change, in degrees Celsius?

The temperature of this sample changes by 1.052 degrees Celsius

Explanation:

As we know

Where m is the mass of the substance

c is the specific heat of the substance

and is the change in temperature

Substituting the given values in above equation, we get -

degree Celsius

The temperature of this sample changes by 1.052 degrees Celsius

conduction is the transfer of thermal energy (heat in transfer) due to collisions between the molecules in the object. collisions between adjacent atoms and molecules transfer kinetic energy from the warmer to the cooler object. the objects must be in physical contact.
