Question

If the same amount of heat is added to 5.00 g samples of each of the metals below, which metal will experience the smallest temperature change and why? (1 point)

Answer 1

Answer: -

Lower the specific heat capacity of the metal, more the amount of heat would be required to raise the temperature to the same extent.

So for the same amount of heat added to 5.00 g samples of metals, the metal with the lowest specific heat capacity would experience the smallest temperature change.

For example, if the elements are Al, Au ,Cu and Fe, then Au would experience the smallest temperature change due to least specific heat capacity.
