Question

Answer the following question on the basis of the information given in the table below.

The following materials of equal masses were heated to increase their temperature by 20 K. Which of them would have required the highest amount of heat?

Copper
Ice
Zinc
Sand

hint Hint:

Use the formula Q = mSΔT

The correct answer is: Ice

with the equation Q = mSdT we can say amount of heat required is directly proportional to Specific heat capacity.

So the object with high specific heat capapcity value requires high heat.

Here water has high heat capacity.
