Unit 10: Heat

What would be the effect on the particles if more heat is supplied to the system?

• They would slow down
• They would stop moving
• They would speed up
• There would be no effect

A sample of iron receives 50.J of heat energy that raises the temperature of the iron 25.0°C. If iron has a specific heat of  0.10 J/g°C, what is the mass of the iron sample?

• 25 g
• 30 g
• 20 g
• 50 g

The specific heat is the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature one degree Celsius of 1 gram of a substance.

• True
• False

The specific heat(c) of copper is 0.39 J/g °C. What is the temperature change(∆t) when 100 Joules of heat(Q) is added to 20 grams?

• 12.82 °C
• 24.12°C
• 351 °C

A high specific heat means...

• It heats up quickly with energy added
• It requires more energy to change temperature
