Explanation:
Hello, there are alot method to separate the impurities from water. One of those & best method for purification of water is Distillation.
During distillation the given apparatus are set as shown in figure. After arrangement we put the impure water in distillation flask & there are two mouth of flask one is attached to condenser & other is covered. There are two tubes in the middle of the condenser in which water comes in from one and water goes out from the other and this happens continuously. The condenser is used to convert the collected water vapours into liquid water so that it can be collected easily in recieving flask.
Answer : The specific heat of the substance is 0.0936 J/g °C
Explanation :
The amount of heat Q can be calculated using following formula.
Where Q is the amount of heat required = 300 J
m is the mass of the substance = 267 g
ΔT is the change in temperature = 12°C
C is the specific heat of the substance.
We want to solve for C, so the equation for Q is modified as follows.
Let us plug in the values in above equation.
C = 0.0936 J/g °C
The specific heat of the substance is 0.0936 J/g°C
