If 1495 J of heat is needed to raise the temperature of a 376 g sample of a metal from 55.0°C to 66.0°C, what is the specific heat capacity of the metal?

Answer :

Specific  heat  capacity is  the quality  of  heat required to  change  the  temperature of  the unit  mass  of  the  substance by  one degree.

specific  heat capacity (C)=energy required / mass x change  in  temperature
energy=1495j
mass=376g
change  in  temperature=66-55=11
c=1495/376  x11=0.3615 j/mol/k
