The specific heat capacity of wood 2.03joules /grams degrees Celsius. how much heat is needed to convert 550 grams of wood at 10.0 degrees Celsius to 35.0degrees Celsius ?

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Specific heat capacity  = 2.03J/g °C

Mass of wood  = 550g

Initial temperature  = 10°C

Final temperature  = 35°C

Unknown:

Amount of heat  = ?

Solution:

The quantity of heat supplied to a substance to effect a temperature change is given as;

           H   =   m  c  Ф

here  m is the mass

          c is the specific heat capacity

          Ф is the temperature change

The temperature change is the difference between the final and initial temperature.

        Ф = Final temperature  - Initial temperature  = 35  - 10  = 25°C

Input the parameters:

    H  = 550 x 2.03 x 25  = 27912.5J

they all get energy from eating other animals, dead animals to be more precise.

hienas tends to steal pray from other animals. crows and vultures tend to eat dead animals and leftovers.

hope it ,
