What is the specific heat of silicon if the temperature of a 4.11 g sample of silicon is increased by 3.8 °C when 11.1 J of heat is added?

The right solution is "0.7107 J/g°C".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Mass,

m = 4.11 g

Temperature,

ΔT = 3.8°C

Heat,

Q = 11.1 J

The specific heat of silicon will be:

⇒  

On substituting the values, we get

⇒      

⇒      

⇒
