Question

The mass of a substance is 50 g and its specific heat is $0.09cal{g}^{-1}{}^o{C}^{-1}$, then its water equivalent is 45 g.

State whether given statement is True/False

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

The correct answer is option(B).

We know, water equivalent(W)=mass $\times$ specific heat.

So here, $W=50\times 0.09=4.5g$

So the written statement is false.
