The specific heat : c = 0.306 J/g K

Further explanation

Given

Heat = 35.2 J

Mass = 16 g

Temperature difference : 7.2 K =

Required

The specific heat

Solution

Heat can be calculated using the formula:  

Q = mc∆T  

Q = heat, J  

m = mass, g  

c = specific heat, joules / g ° C  

∆T = temperature difference, ° C / K  

Input the value :

c = Q / m.∆T  

c = 35.2 / 16 x 7.2

c = 0.306 J/g K
