The specific heat capacity of the alcohol will be 3.72 kJ/kg°C.
<h3>What is the specific heat capacity?</h3>
The amount of heat required to increase a substance's temperature by one degree Celsius is known as its "specific heat capacity."
Similarly, heat capacity is the relationship between the amount of energy delivered to a substance and the increase in temperature that results.
Given data;
Mass of liquid sample of Alcohol m₁ = 200-gram
The temperature of alcohol, T₁ = -6°C.
Mass of liquid sample of water m₂ = 400-gram
The temperature of the water, T₂= 20°C.
The specific heat capacity of the alcohol, S₁=?
The specific heat capacity of water is, S₂=4.19 kJ/kg.°C
As we know that;
