Interpretation: The mass of silver sample needs to be determined if
Concept introduction: Specific heat of capacity can be defined as the amount of heat added to a substance to raise the temperature by one degree.
Answer to Problem 50A
The mass of silver sample will be
Explanation of Solution
The specific heat capacity of silver is
The amount of heat required for heating the silver sample from
Now, the mass of the silver sample can be calculated as:
Hence, the mass of silver sample will be
The equation for the calculation of mass is as follows:
Where, Q is the amount of heat, m is the mass of substance, s is the specific heat capacity and
