Answer:
Cp = 0.093 J.g⁻¹.°C⁻¹
Solution:
The equation used for this problem is as follow,
Q = m Cp ΔT ----- (1)
Where;
Q = Heat = 300 J
m = mass = 267 g
Cp = Specific Heat Capacity = ??
ΔT = Change in Temperature = 12 °C
Solving eq. 1 for Cp,
Cp = Q / m ΔT
Putting values,
Cp = 300 J / (267 g × 12 °C)
Cp = 0.093 J.g⁻¹.°C⁻¹
Yes, it depends on the size of the ball and the weight. If it's heavy and big then it'll affect how far it rolls, if it's small and has no weight then it won't really move as much
The two molecules will only react if they have enough energy. By heating the mixture, you are raising the energy levels of the molecules involved in the reaction. Increasing temperature also means the molecules are moving around faster and will therefore "bump" into each other more often.
