A. mass 100kg the temperature rises by 1k
B. mass 1kg, the temperature by 1000K
C. mass 1kg, the temperature rises by 1K
D. mass 100kg, the temperature rises by 1000k
Correct Answer: Option C
C. mass 1kg, the temperature rises by 1K
Explanation
The specific heat capacity of a body is the heat energy required to raise a body of mass 1kg through a temperature of 1K.
![A solid of mass 0.5kg initially at 50oC melts at 60oC. Calculate the quantity of heat required to melt it completely. [specific heat capacity of the solid =2.0KJ kg-1K-1][Specific latent heat of fusion of solid =1.0 KJ kg-1] A solid of mass 0.5kg initially at 50oC melts at 60oC.
