Chapter 8, Problem 8.124CHP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Mass of ice at $0°C$ added to obtain iced tea at $10°C$ has to be calculated.

Concept Introduction:

Specific heat is the heat required to raise the temperature of $1g$ of a substance by accurately $1°C.$

Specific heat is denoted by ‘c’ and the formula is,

$c=\frac{q}{m\times \Delta T}$

Where,

$\begin{array}{l}q=quantity\text{ of heat added or released}\\ \Delta T=change\text{ in temperature}\\ \text{m}\text{= mass of the substance}\end{array}$
