Understanding the concept of specific heat

A substance's specific heat capacity is the amount of energy required to raise its temperature by one degree Celsius. We can use the concept of specific heat and molar specific heat of the water. We can use the expression of the number of moles of the substance. It is the ratio of the mass of the sample to the mass per mole of the substance.

Formulae:

The heat energy required by a body, Q=³¾³¦Î”°Õ …(¾±)

Where, m = mass

c= specific heat capacity

ΔT= change in temperature

Q= required heat energy

The heat energy required by a body,Q=NcmΔ°Õ …(¾±¾±)

Where, N = m/M = number of moles

cm= molar specific heat capacity

Δ°Õ= change in temperature

Q= required heat energy

(a) Calculation of the specific heat of the substance

Using equation (i), the specific heat of a substance is given as:

c=Qm(Tf−Ti)=314J30.0×10−3kgâ‹…(45.0°°ä−25.0°°ä)=523 J/kg.K

Hence, the value of the specific heat is523 J/°ì²µ.°­

04

(b) Calculation of the molar specific heat of the substance

The expression of the molar specific heat of the substance using equation (ii) is given as:

cm=QN(Tf−Ti)=314J30.0×10−3kg50.0×10−3kg/mol(45.0°°ä−25.0°°ä)=26.2 J/³¾´Ç±ô.°­

Hence, the value of the molar specific heat is26.2 J/mol.K

05

(c) Calculation of the number of moles of the sample

The number of moles of the sample isN. Hence, using equation (ii), it is given as:

N=mM=30.0×10−3kg50.0×10−3kg/mol=0.600″¾´Ç±ô

Hence, there are 0.600molin the substance

A 0.400 kg sample is placed in a cooling apparatus that removes energy as heat at a constant rate. Figure 18-32 gives the temperature T of the sample versus time t; the horizontal scale is set by ts=80.0 min. The sample freezes during the energy removal. The specific heat of the sample in its initial liquid phase is 300 J/kgK . (a) What is the sample’s heat of fusion and (b) What is its specific heat in the frozen phase?

A person makes a quantity of iced tea by mixing 500 g of hot tea (essentially water) with an equal mass of ice at its melting point. Assume the mixture has negligible energy exchanges with its environment. If the tea’s initial temperature is Ti=90oC , when thermal equilibrium is reached (a) what is the mixture’s temperatureTfand (b) what is the remaining mass mf of ice? IfTf=70oC, (c) when thermal equilibrium is reached what is Tf and (d) when thermal equilibrium is reached what is mf?

The giant hornet Vespa mandarinia japonica preys on Japanese bees. However, if one of the hornets attempts to invade a beehive, several hundred of the bees quickly form a compact ball around the hornet to stop it. They don’t sting, bite, crush, or suffocate it. Rather they overheat it by quickly raising their body temperatures from thenormal,35°°ä  t´Ç â¶Ä‰47°°ä  o°ù 48°°äwhich is lethal to the hornet but not to the bees (Figure). Assume the following:500bees form a ball ofradiusR=2.0cmforatime,t=20minthe primary loss of energy by the ball is by thermal radiation, the ball’s surface has emissivityε=0.80,and the ball has a uniform temperature.

A cylindrical copper rod of length1.2 mand cross sectional area4.8 c³¾2is insulated to prevent heat loss through its surface. The ends are maintained at a temperature difference of100 0Cby having one end in a water – ice mixture and the other in a mixture of boiling water and steam.(a) At what rate is energy conducted along the rod? (b) At what rate does ice melt at the cold end?

Leidenfrost Effect. A water drop that is slung onto a skillet with a temperature between 100°°ä and about 200°°äwill last about . However, if the skillet is much hotter, the drop can last several minutes, an effect named after an early investigator. The longer lifetime is due to the support of a thin layer of air and water vapor that separates the drop from the metal (by distance L in Figure). Let L=0.100mm , and assume that the drop is flat withheight h=1.50mmand bottom face area A=4.00×10−6m2 . Also assume that the skillet has a constant temperature Ts=300°°ä and the drop has a temperature of 100°°ä .Water has density ÒÏ=1000kg/m3, and the supporting layer has thermal conductivity k=0.026 W/³¾.°­ . (a) At what rate is energy conducted from the skillet to the drop through the drop’s bottom surface? (b) If conduction is the primary way energy moves from the skillet to the drop, how long will the drop last?
