प्रश्न
A liquid X has specific heat capacity higher than the liquid Y. Which liquid is useful as heat reservoir to keep juice bottles without freezing?

उत्तर
The specific heat capacity of liquid X is higher than that of Y. So, for same mass and same heat energy, the rise in temperature for X will be less than that of Y. As a heat reservoir to keep juice bottles without freezing, the liquid needs to give out large amount of heat before reaching freezing temperatures. Hence, liquid X is ideal for this function.

Differentiate between heat capacity and specific heat capacity.
In an experiment to determine the specific heat capacity of a solid following operations were
made:
Mass of calorimeter + stirrer = x kg
Mass of water = y kg
Initial temperature of water t1℃
Mass of solid = z kg
Temperature of solid = t2 ℃
Temperature of mixture = t ℃
Specific heat capacity of calorimeter and water are c1 and c2 respectively. Express the specific
heat capacity c of the solid in terms of the above data.
A calorimeter has mass 100 g and specific heat 0.1 kcal/ kg°C. It contains 250 gm of liquid at 30°C having specific heat of 0.4 kcal/kg°C. If we drop a piece of ice of mass 10 g at 0°C, What will be the temperature of the mixture?
