Question
Heat energy is added to a 325 g block of nickel, and the temperature increases from 23 degrees celsius to 51 degrees celsius. If the same amount of heat was added to the same mass of water at the same temperature, what would the water's final temperature be?
Answers
q = mass Ni x specific heat Ni x (Tfinal-Tinitial) = ?
Look up the specific heat Ni, substitute in the above and solve for q. Then substitute into the below.
q = mass H2O x specific heat H2O x (Tfinal-Tinitial)
Look up the specific heat Ni, substitute in the above and solve for q. Then substitute into the below.
q = mass H2O x specific heat H2O x (Tfinal-Tinitial)
