What does specific heat depend on?

Molar Heat Capacity

Definition: The quantity of heat needed to raise the temperature of one mole of a substance 1
degree K or oC.

Water Specific Heat Capacity: 4.184 J g-1 K-1

Formula for Molar Heat Capacity:

1) Determine the energy as the heat needed to increase the temperature of 10 moles of
mercury by 7.5K. The value for c is 27.8 J/ K*mol.

2) When 600 mL of water in an electric kettle is heated from 20 C to 85 C to make a cup of

tea, how much heat flows into the water?

5) Identify the relationship between the variables in Boyle’s and Charles’s Law

6) How will decreasing the temperature effect the volume?

7) 500.0 liters of gas in a flexible-walled container are prepared at 700.0 mmHg and 200.0
°C. The gas is placed into a tank under high pressure. When the tank cools to 20.0 °C, the
gas pressure is 30.0 atm. What is the volume of the gas?

8) What is the volume of gas at 2.00 atm and 200.0 K if its original volume was 300.0 L at
0.250 atm and 400.0 K.
