Question
Equal quantities of olive oil and water, at room temperature, are heated by providing the same amount of heat. Which of the following is true about their final temperatures?
- Both of them will be at the same temperature.
- They will be at different temperatures.
- Their temperatures will not increase at all.
- Their temperatures will decrease.
Hint:
Specific heat of oil and water is different
The correct answer is: They will be at different temperatures.
Even when heated at same temperatures, the same amount of liquid will have different temperatures because both the liquids have different specific heat. Specific heat is the amount of heat required to change the temperature of a substance by one degree (generally °C).
