A piece of stainless steel with a mass of 25.0 g has a temperature of 50.0° C. It absorbs 1250 J of heat energy. It absorbs enough heat to raise the
temperature 149 °C. What is the specific heat of the stainless steel?

0.336 J/g/C

Explanation:

Recall the equation for specific heat:

q = mcΔT

1250 = 25 x c x 149

c = 0.336

let that person have a turn to speak : )

a 20-cm-long, cylindrical graphite (pure carbon) rod is inserted into an oxidizing atmosphere at 1145 k and 1.013 x 105 pa pressure. the oxidizing process is limited by the diffu- sion of oxygen counterflow to the carbon monoxide that is formed on the cylindrical surface.
