What will be the change of temperature for 300 gr of iron (Fe) which have gained 2000 cal?
For a thermodynamic system, isobaric coefficient of volume expansion (a) and isothermal compressibility (b) are defined as
a=(1/v) (dv/dT)p b= -(1/v) (dv/dp)T
Show that for an isochoric change, b dp = a dT.
The energy given off as heat by 300g of an alloy as it cools through 50OC raises the
temperature of 300g of water from 30OC to 40 OC. What is the specific heat of the alloy (in
cal/g· OC)?
Refer to “common misconception” box of the module and provide brief answer on why the statements
there are considered wrong.
