Specific Heat
The specific heat of a
substance is the quantity
of heat required to change
the temperature of 1 g of
o
that substance by 1 C.

Example 1
Calculate the specific heat of a solid in
J/goC and in cal/ goC if 1638 J raise the
temperature of 125 g of the solid from
25.0oC to 52.6oC.

Example 2
A sample of a metal with a mass of 212
g is heated to 125.0oC and then dropped
into 375 g of water at 240.0oC. If the
final temperature of the water is
34.2oC, what is the specific heat of the
metal?
When the metal enters the water, it begins to cool,
losing heat to the water. At the same time, the
temperature of the water rises. This process continues
until the temperature of the metal and the temperature of
the water are equal, at which point (34.2oC) no net flow
of heat occurs.

 Calculate the heat gained by the water.
 Calculate the final temperature of the metal.
 Calculate the specific heat of the metal.

Once the metal is dropped into the water, its temperature
will drop until it reaches the same temperature as the
water (34.2oC).

Conservation of
Energy
An energy transformation occurs
whenever a chemical change occurs.

If energy is absorbed during a chemical
change, the products will have more
chemical potential energy than the
reactants.
•
If energy is given off in a chemical
change, the products will have less
chemical potential energy than the
reactants.

Conservation of
Energy
Energy can be neither created nor destroyed,
though it can be transformed from one form of
energy to another form of energy.
