Calculate what the specific heat capacity of an unknown metal is if 394) of heat were released when 15.0 grams of the substance at 96.0°C was
cooled to 28.0°C?
Formula Reminders
q = mCAT
q = mHvap
q = mHfus
1. 4.01 J/gºC
2. 5910 J/g°C
3. 0.387 J/g°C

The specific heat capacity of an unknown metal is .

Explanation:

Given: Heat energy = 394 J

Mass = 15 g

Initial temperature =

Final temperature =

Formula used is as follows.

where,

q = heat energy

m = mass of substance

C = specific heat capacity

= initial temperature

= final temperature

Substitute the values into above formula as follows.

Thus, we can conclude that the specific heat capacity of an unknown metal is .
