Specific Heat Capacity
- It tells you how much energy stuff can store
- Materials which need to gain lots of
energy to warm up also release lots of
energy when they cool down
- They can 'store' a lot of heat
- They can 'store' a lot of heat
- The measure of how much energy something can
store is called specific heat capacity
- It is the amount of energy needed to raise the temp of 1kg by 1oc
- Water has a specific heat capacity of 4200J/kgoc
- Water has a specific heat capacity of 4200J/kgoc
- Materials which need to gain lots of
energy to warm up also release lots of
energy when they cool down
- E= m x c x 0
- E= energy transferred (J)
- m= mass (kg)
- c= specific heat capacity (J/kgoc)
- 0= temp change (oc)
- E= energy transferred (J)
