Solution

The correct option is A $0.025 k g$
Given:
Specific heat capacity of the substance: $c = 500 J / k g K$

From A to B,
X-axis gives heat absorbed, $Q = 1000 J$
Y-axis gives temperature change,
$Δ T = 80 - 0$
$Δ T = 80 K$

We know if a substance is heated without changing its phase then heat supplied is given by:
$Q = m c Δ T$
$1000 = m \times 500 \times 80$
$m = 0.025 k g = 25 g$
