**Title: Understanding Heat Capacity Through Experimentation****Introduction:**In this exercise, we will explore the concept of specific heat capacity by examining its effects on different substances. The scenario involves a comparative analysis of two containers, each containing a different substance, namely sand and ethanol. By adding a known amount of heat energy to each substance, we can observe and calculate the resultant change in temperature.**Problem Statement:***A student has two containers – one with 19.0 g of sand and one with 19.0 g of ethanol. To each substance, 10.0 cal of heat is added.***Experiment Task:****Part 1 of 3: Determine Temperature Change for Sand**We will begin by calculating the change in temperature for the sand. The specific heat capacity of sand is provided as 0.200 cal/(g°C). Using this information, apply the specific heat formula to determine how much the temperature of the sand changes when 10.0 cal of heat is added.- **Formula:** ΔT = Q / (m * c) Where: - ΔT = Change in temperature (°C) - Q = Heat added (calories) - m = Mass of the substance (grams) - c = Specific heat capacity (cal/(g°C)) - **Calculation for Sand:** - Given: Q = 10.0 cal, m = 19.0 g, c = 0.200 cal/(g°C) - ΔT = 10.0 / (19.0 * 0.200)Upon solving, students will fill in the calculated temperature change in the provided box.**Conclusion:**This experiment is designed to teach students how to apply the concept of specific heat capacity practically. By determining the temperature change, students can enhance their understanding of thermal properties and their implications on different materials.**Next Steps:**Click "Next part" to proceed to the next stage of the problem, where you will perform similar calculations for ethanol.
