Calculate the specific heat capacity of a piece of ice if 1.30 kg of the wood absorbs 6.75×104 joules of heat, and its temperature changes from 32 ºC to 57 ºC.

Explanation:

-Specific heat capacity is given by the formula:

Where:

is the heat gained or loosed by the substance

is the mass of the substance

is the specific heat of the substance

is the change in temperature

#We make c the subject of the formula and substitute to solve for it:

Hence, the specific heat capacity of the ice is
