Question

specific heat capacity is the amount of energy required to raise 1 gram of that substance by 1 degree. this is measured in joules. so how many joules would it take to raise 1 gram of al by 1 degree? .900 joules .126 joules 4.186 joules

Explanation:

The specific heat capacity of aluminum (Al) is a known value in physics (a subfield of Natural Science). The specific heat capacity of aluminum is approximately 0.900 J/g°C, meaning it takes 0.900 Joules to raise 1 gram of Al by 1 degree Celsius. The other options: 0.126 J/g°C is the specific heat of lead, and 4.186 J/g°C is the specific heat of water.

Answer:

.900 Joules (the option with ".900 Joules")
