If the specific heat capacity of water were less, would a nice hot bath be a longer or shorter experience?

(3 ).Regarding heat capacity, latent heat and temperature: (a ).The difference between specific heat capacity and heat capacity relates to the mass of substance involved. (b ).Heat is a form of kinetic energy which can be transferred from a colder substance to a hotter substance. (c ).Temperature is the property of a substance that determines whether an object will receive heat or give heat to another object. (d ).An example of latent heat of fusion is the heat associated with a solid dissolving into a liquid at a constant temperature. (e ).A clinical example of latent heat is in the use of ethyl chloride spray for topical anaesthesia.

A tile floor may feel uncomfortably cold to your bare feet but a carpeted floor in an adjoining room at the same temp feels warm. Why? (5 sentences)

Two different objects with the same temperature are supplied with equal amounts of heat. Explain why their temperature changes would not necessarily be the same.

1. (a) How much heat transfer is necessary to raise the temperature of a 0.26 -kg piece of ice from -20 °C to 130 °C, including the 20 kJ/s energy needed for phase changes? Specific heat of ice = 2.090 kJ/kg °C Specific heat of water = 4.186 kJ/kg °C Specific heat of steam = 1.520 kJ/kg °C Heat of fusion of water = 334 kJ/kg Heat of vaporization = 2256 kJ/kg (i) Heat needed to warm ice to 0 °C: Q₁: ✔KJ (ii) Heat needed to melt ice at 0 °C: Q₂: KJ (iii) Heat required to warm 0 °C water to 100 °C: Q3: KJ (iv) Heat required to vaporize water at 100 °C: Q4: KJ (v) Heat required to warm 100 °C vapor to 130 °C: Q5: KJ Total heat, Q: KJ (b) How much time is required for the entire process, assuming a constant 20.0 kJ/s rate of heat transfer? Total time, t: S

it is important not to undercook chicken, otherwise you might get very sick. The inside of the chicken has to be at a certain temperature (75 C or 165 F) to make sure it is safe. Why can’t you just wait until the outside of the chicken is at this temperature? Why isn’t the entire chicken at the same temperature while it is being cooked?

As ice melts in a drink, is the heat gained by the ice equal to the heat lost by the drink? If it is in an insulated cup (like styrofoam)? I tried to calculate the values and what I got for the heat lost by the drink was a much larger number than heat gained by the ice after it melts
