What is the specific heat of silicon if it takes 192j to raise the temperature of 45.0g of si by 6.0oc?

Explanation:

The quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of a substance by one degree Celsius is called the specific heat capacity.

Q = Heat absorbed= 192 Joules

m= mass of silicon (Si) = 45.0 g

c = specific heat capacity = ?

Change in temperature ,

Putting in the values, we get:

The specific heat of silicon is
