Solution

$(i) G i v e n : H e a t C a p a c i t y, m C = 966 J / ° C H e a t e n e r g y r e q u i r e d, Q = m \times C \times c h a n g e i n t e m p e r a t u r e = 966 \times 15 = 14490 J (i i) Q = m \times C \times Δ T S p e c i f i c h e a t c a p a c i t y, C = \frac{Q}{m \times Δ T} = \frac{14490}{2 \times 15} = 483 J k g^{- 1} ° C^{- 1}$
