The specific heat capacity of aluminum is 0.215 cal/g°
c. An aluminum pot has a mass of 500
g. How many calories of heat are required to raise the temperature 1 degrees Celcius
We can use the formula of E = mc△T to solve it. Usually E is for energy in joules, but in this case calories will work in it too. m is mass, c is specific heat capacity and △T is the temperature change. Substitute the numbers in it E = 500 x 0.215 x 1 E = 107.5 cal.
