A 1.0 g sample of substance A at 100°C is added to 100 mL of H2O at 25°C. Using separate 100 mL portions of H2O, the procedure is repeated with substance B and then with substance C.  How will the final temperature of the water compare?

Substance Specific heat
A 0.60 J g-1  °C-1
B 0.40 J g-1  °C-1
C 0.20 J g-1  °C-1

  2. TB > TA > TC
  3. TA > TB > TC
  4. TA = TB = TC

Answer

(C) T A > T B > T C
