It takes 460.0 J of heat to raise the temperature of 50.00 g of oxygen by 10.00°C. What is the specific heat of O₂ in J/g·°C?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The specific heat (c) is calculated using the formula c = q / (m * ΔT), where q is the heat added (460.0 J), m is the mass (50.00 g), and ΔT is the temperature change (10.00°C). Plugging in the values, c = 460.0 J / (50.00 g * 10.00°C) = 0.9200 J/g·°C.
