An 80.0-gram sample of a gas was heated from 25 °C to 225 °C. During this process 346 J of work was done by the system (which was stationary), and its internal energy increased by 7765 J. What is the specific heat capacity of the gas?

Respuesta :

Step 1: calculate q (charge)
delta U is change in internal energy 

Using the formula: 
delta U = q + w 

q = delta U - w
   = 6865 J - (-346 J)
   = 7211 J = 7.211 KJ 

q = mc x delta T 
Step 2) Calculate C.

7211 J = 80.0 g x c x (225-25) °C 

c = 0.451 J /g °C
