When a substance absorbs thermal energy, it partitions some as potential and some as kinetic energy. Specific heat is an expression related to the quantity of heat a substance stores as potential energy; the remainder is absorbed as kinetic which causes the temperature to increase - recall that temperature is a measure of average kinetic energy. 
When specific heat is low, most of the energy is partitioned as kinetic energy and the substance will experience the greatest temperature change. 

So rather than calculating the change in temperature, we can simply inspect the specific heats. The one with the lowest will experience the greatest temperature change. We could also compare the specific heats: Al = .897/.385 ==> 2.3, Fe = .452/.385 = 1.2, Cu = .385/.385 = 1. We can expect Copper's temperature change to be 2.3 times larger than Aluminum's and 1.2 times larger than Iron's.

If the molar heat of combustion of liquid benzene at constant volume and 300k is -3272KJ. Calculate the heat of combustion at co
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

The heat at constant pressure is -3,275.7413 kJ

Explanation:

The combustion equation is 2C₆H₆ (l) + 15O₂ (g)  → 12CO₂ (g) + 6H₂O (l)

\Delta n_g = (12 - 15)/2 = -3/2

We have;

\Delta H = \Delta U + \Delta n_g\cdot R\cdot T

Where R and T are constant, and ΔU is given we can write the relationship as follows;

H = U + \Delta n_g\cdot R\cdot T

Where;

H = The heat at constant pressure

U = The heat at constant volume = -3,272 kJ

\Delta n_g = The change in the number of gas molecules per mole

R = The universal gas constant = 8.314 J/(mol·K)

T = The temperature = 300 K

Therefore, we get;

H = -3,272 kJ + (-3/2) mol ×8.314 J/(mol·K) ×300 K) × 1 kJ/(1000 J) = -3,275.7413 kJ

The heat at constant pressure, H = -3,275.7413 kJ.
