Because it either acids or base
Usually in this context you would be referring to the boiling and freezing point of a NaCl <em>solution</em> (saltwater) compared to pure H_{2}O. Sematics would be different for NaCl compound itself, you would say melting and boiling point for a solid substance- and the temperatures would be very, very radical (high).
The boiling point of pure water is 100 degrees C (212 F), and the freezing/melting point is below 0 degrees C (32 F). For a salt water solution, the boiling point is raised and the melting point is lowered. This means that water will stay liquid for an increased range of temperature. Depending on the amount of NaCl solute in the water, the boiling and melting points may change a few degrees.
Answer:
100Jkg/°C
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Mass of metal = 2kg
Amount of heat energy = 1600J
Initial temperature = 5°C
Final temperature = 13°C
Unknown:
Specific heat capacity of the metal = ?
Solution:
Specific heat capacity of a body is the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of unit mass of a body by 1°C.
H = m x C x (T₂ - T₁ )
H is the amount of heat
m is the mass
C is the unknown specific heat capacity
T is the temperature
Insert the parameters and solve;
1600 = 2 x C x (13 - 5)
1600 = 16C
C = 100Jkg/°C
