Question

As the temp of solid increases, its specific heat ..Explain it @AllTehMaffs

Answer 1

Pfhahahaha she demands you explain @AllTehMaffs X'''''D

Answer 2

I'm backing off since she requested you!! ;D

Answer 3

O-o

Answer 4

hola!

Answer 5

you always find the hard questions! ^_^

Answer 6

Master Can you tell me what happen to Specific heat and why ??

Answer 7

hehehe :)

Answer 8

GIVE HIM THE MEDAL NOW

Answer 9

It kinda depends. As the temperature goes to "zero," the specific heat of a substance also goes to zero (although it's not really 0 Kelvin (nothing at all happens at 0K); but I don't really understand it that well) so the colder something gets the smaller its specific heat is).

It also does weird stuff around the phase barriers (when something changes from a liquid to a gas, or a solid to a liquid). The specific heat at those times kinda goes to infinity because all of the heat energy goes into doing the "work" (wrong word) of changing the phase.

And then it depends on if you're keeping the volume constant or the pressure constant. Lots of "ifs" ^_^ I dunno if that's any help...

Answer 10

In general it just follows this
\[C \equiv \frac{Q}{\Delta T}\]
C is the heat capacity, Q is heat added and T is change in temperature.

**Specific heat is the heat capacity per unit mass
\[c \equiv \frac{C}{m}\]

And most people write that first equation using specific heat

\[Q=cm\Delta T\]

That's not really answering your question well though :P

Answer 11

Remains constant
