A1-kg iron frying pan is placed on a stove. the pan increases from 20°c to 250°c. if the same amount of heat is added to a pan with a greater specific heat, what can you predict about the temperature of this second pan? a) the second pan would reach a lower temperature. b) the second pan would reach a higher temperature. c) the second pan would reach the same temperature. d) no conclusion can be made from this information.

Here mass of the iron pan is given as 1 kg

now let say its specific heat capacity is given as "s"

also its temperature rise is given from 20 degree C to 250 degree C

so heat required to change its temperature will be given as

now if we give same amount of heat to another pan of greater specific heat

so let say the specific heat of another pan is s'

now the increase in temperature of another pan will be given as

now we have

now as we know that s' is more than s so the ratio of s and s' will be less than 1

And hence here we can say that change in temperature of second pan will be less than 230 degree C which shows that final temperature of second pan will reach to lower temperature

So correct answer is

A)The second pan would reach a lower temperature.
