    Specific Heat Worksheet #1

    Directions: Calculate the following showing ALL work to receive credit.


    Formula Q = mcT, where Q is heat in joules, c is specific heat capacity in J/gC, m is the mass in
    grams, and delta T is the change in temperature in C.

     For #1-4 circle the variables it gives you and underline what you are trying to find. You can use two colors of
    highlighters if you like instead.

    Answer with
    Q Work
    Units!
    Find the amount of heat (Q) needed to raise the temperature of 5.00 g of a substance
    from 20.0 C to 30.0C if the specific heat of the substance is 2.01 J/gC. 100.5 J

    A metal with a specific heat of 0.780 J/gC requires 45.0 J of heat to raise the
    temperature by 2.00C. What is the mass of the metal? 28.8 g

    A substance requires 50.0 J of heat to raise its temperature by 6.00C. If the mass of the
    substance is 5.00 g, what is the specific heat of the substance? 1.67 J/gC

    A metal with a specific heat of 0.70 J/gC and a mass of 8.00 g absorbs 48.0 J of heat.
    What will be the temperature change of the metal? 8.57 C

    The table below shows the specific heats of some common substances.
    Use the table to answer questions 5-9
