A metal block weighing 2.5 kg. A measurement shows that when the block is supplied with an energy of 62.2 kj, its temperature rises from 15 to 70? calculate metal block specific heat.
The specific heat is the amount of heat per unit mass required to raise the temperature by one degree Celsius.
62200j/(( 2500 gm) x (70-15c)) = .45236 j/kg C Which is about the specific heat of iron
