specific heat capacity/latent heat

Question 1

what is the specific heat capacity

Answer 1

amount of heat required to raise 1kg of an object to 1 C

Question 2

formula for heat=Q

Answer 2

mass * SPC * temp change (J)

Question 3

the formula for specific heat capacity

Answer 3

spc = heat/mass*temp change = (j/KgC)

Question 4

what is thermal energy

Answer 4

the amount of heat required to increase the whole body by one degree

Question 5

the formula for thermal energy

Answer 5

Q= mass * spc (j/c)

Question 6

Specific latent heat of fusion?

Answer 6

amount of heat required to change a unit mass of solid to unit mass of liquid without temperature change

Question 7

Specific latent heat of vaporisation?

Answer 7

the quantity of heat required to turn unit mass of liquid to unit mass of vapour without temperature change

Question 8

the formula for heat

Answer 8

Q = m * l (J)

Question 9

the formula for specific latent heat

Answer 9

l=Q/m (j/kg)

Question 10

how does the temp not increase at all

Answer 10

this is because both vapourisation and fusion increase the particles P.E, not K.E

Question 11

does evaporation reduce the temp of liquids

Answer 11

yes
