250 g of water and equal volume of alcohol of mass 200 g are replaced successively in the same calorimeter and cools from 60∘C to 55∘C in 130 s and 67 s, respectively. If the water equivalent of the calorimeter is 10 g and rate of heat loss is same for both, then the specific heat of alcohol in cal/g∘C is
Why this question? Caution: make sure to use specific heat of water in cal/g∘C for the uniformity in units. |
