Specific Heat Capacity – Specific Heat Capacity – the quantity of the quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of a heat required to raise the temperature of a unit mass of a substance by 1unit mass of a substance by 1ºCºC
Q = mcQ = mcΔΔTTQ = quantity of heat; m = mass of substance; Q = quantity of heat; m = mass of substance;
c = specific heat capacity of substance; c = specific heat capacity of substance; ΔΔT = change in temperatureT = change in temperature
We can think of specific heat capacity as We can think of specific heat capacity as thermal inertia (an object’s resistance to thermal inertia (an object’s resistance to change)change)
Thermal ExpansionThermal Expansion
When the temperature of a substance When the temperature of a substance increases, the molecules “jiggle” faster and increases, the molecules “jiggle” faster and move further apart, causing an move further apart, causing an expansionexpansion of the of the substancesubstance
Gases generally expand and contract more than Gases generally expand and contract more than liquids, which expand and contract more than liquids, which expand and contract more than solidssolids
In concrete sidewalks and highways this In concrete sidewalks and highways this expansion and contraction is taken into account expansion and contraction is taken into account when it is being built. The surface is laid down when it is being built. The surface is laid down in small sections with a gap in between, that is in small sections with a gap in between, that is usually filled with a substance such as tar.usually filled with a substance such as tar.
Expansion of WaterExpansion of Water
Almost all liquids will expand when Almost all liquids will expand when they are heated, ice-cold water instead they are heated, ice-cold water instead contracts to go from ice to a liquidcontracts to go from ice to a liquid
When the water reaches a When the water reaches a temperature of 4temperature of 4ºC, it will stop ºC, it will stop contracting and begin expandingcontracting and begin expanding
This has to do with the crystal This has to do with the crystal structure of water, its solid state has structure of water, its solid state has an open structure that takes up more an open structure that takes up more volume and is therefore less densevolume and is therefore less dense
