Correction: The temperature change is from 20 °C to 30 °C.

Answer:
               Cp  =  1.0032 J.g⁻¹.°C⁻¹

Solution:

The equation used for this problem is as follow,

                                                  Q  =  m Cp ΔT   ----- (1)

Where;
            Q  =  Heat  =  5016 J

            m  =  mass  =  500 g

            Cp  =  Specific Heat Capacity  =  ??

            ΔT  =  Change in Temperature  =  30 °C  -  20 °C  =  10 °C

Solving eq. 1 for Cp,

                                 Cp  =  Q / m ΔT

Putting values,
                                 Cp  =  5016 J / (500 g × 10 °C)

                                 Cp  =  1.0032 J.g⁻¹.°C⁻¹

HELP Which of the following fractions can be used in the conversion of 32 m3 to the unit mm3?
poizon [28]
We know that each millimeter contains 10⁻³ meters. Writing this as a ratio:
1 mm : 10⁻³ m

We require a conversion from m³ to mm³, so we must take the cube of the ratio we have made:
1 mm³ = (10⁻³)³ m³

Therefore, the conversion used will be:
(1 mm / 10⁻³ m)³

When we multiply by this conversion, we will get:
32 m³ = 32 x 10⁹ mm³

Fudgin [204]
The physical state, or phase, that has the greatest kinetic energy is gas. In a gas, the molecules are more free to move and they move more rapidly than in the other phases, and it is this motion that constitutes kinetic energy.
