A student measured out 1 kg samples of each substance below on a triple beam balance. Next, the student heated each sample on a
hot plate, increasing the temperature of each sample by 10°C as
measured with a Celsius
thermometer. Based on the given
specific heat capacities, which substance required thr most heat input
for this temperature increase?
A Water, Cp= 4186 J/kg•°C
B Silver, Cp = 234 J/kg•°C
C Copper, Cp = 387 J/kg•°C
D Aluminum, Cp = 899 J/kg•°C
