Given:
The mass of the aluminum, m₁=450 g
and m₂=1800 g
The specific heat fo 450 g of aluminum is c.
To find:
The specific heat of 1800 g of aluminum.
Step-by-step explanation:
The specific heat of a substance is the heat required to raise the temperature of the unit mass of a material by one degree celcius. That is, it tells us how much amount of heat we need to supply to raise the temperature of a material.
Specific heat of a material is an intensive property of a material, that is it does not depend on the amount of the material present.
Thus the specific heat of material will remain the same regardless of the amount of the material present.
Final answer:
Thus the specific heat of 1800 g of aluminum is c.
Therefore the correct answer is option C.
